[INFO REQ] - Sending unmodified fields to the server

[Qwerty]

Hello,

We want to send back to the server a field that will never be modified. There is one mention in the documentation about setting a field as 'critical', but it doesn't look like this is supported now. We had a look at the code, and we could only find some commented out code where the critical fields are set before update. Can you let us know if passing an unmodified field is possible, or if there is a workaround?

Thank you!

Hi Qwerty,

Maybe https://www.bryntum.com/docs/scheduler/#Core/data/AjaxStore#config-writeAllFields is that you need.

All best,
Alex

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your response. We did have a look at that, but it seemed like a hammer approach. We wanted to send back just the one field which would help in identifying the record in the backend.
