Set Entity Attribute Value Action Advanced Customisations

  • Conditional Value Assignment: A different value can be assigned if a specific condition is met (with If actions).
  • Multiple Value Update: All form fields can be updated by chaining different Set Entity Attribute Value actions.
  • Feedback Mechanism: After successful updates, the user can be shown a ‘Your information has been successfully updated’ message.
  • Automatic Value Retrieval from Form: The Value parameter can be retrieved directly from the dynamic form and matched with the form component ID.

Technical Risks

  • Missing or Invalid IDs: If EntityId and AttributeId are missing or not registered in the system, the operation will fail.
  • Data Type Mismatch: If the entered Value does not match the defined DataType of the attribute, the system may return an error.
  • Empty Value Issues: Assigning empty values to required attributes can lead to data inconsistencies (especially for attributes where IsRequired=true).

The Set Entity Attribute Value action is one of the most fundamental parts of Kuika's dynamic and user-specific data management infrastructure. It is a flexible and powerful tool that simplifies data updates, especially in applications that use the EAV model.
