Need to autosave the form through the script include

[SK41]

Hi,

I have a requirement where I need to autosave the form through the script include/server side. How can I do that?

@SK41 What do you mean by autosave, the form would only get saved once the user submits it via the submit/save/update UI Actions.

autosave means through script. There is no UI action to save. When the user selects the value of a field it should get autosave via script. Like we use g_form.save in client side.What can be used in server side script to auto save the form

@SK41 You can implement this by calling a server side method using GlideAjax inside various onChange scripts which will run with respect to different fields available on the form. However, I will not recommend this approach as it will end up making a lot of GlideAjax call on your server and the performance would ultimately take a hit.

Could you suggest the method that will be used to autosave from serve side. I think g_form.save cannot be used, what function is used to auto save through server side.
