Handling a Repeating Group with Input Fields and Saving All Changes with One Button

Need help
1

I’m trying to create a list form in Bubble where each row is editable within a repeating group, and I want to save all the changes at once using a single button (see attached image). What’s the best way to achieve this in Bubble.io? Any plugins, workflows, or tips would be appreciated!

You don’t need plugins, but there’s plugins like Jedi from @boston85719 and JSONtoBubble from @magnorm

However, this can also be achieved using states, JSON and backend WF.

are you wanting to change all items in the entire repeating group or just changing the field values for a single entry?

Do you have sample or a high level structure? Thanks!

You will need to have one main state that will store the whole JSON but also a state on the cell level. The structured JSON will depend of the fields you have. With your screenshot:

{"name":null,"phone1":null,"phone2":null,"relationship":null}

The WF is to always remove the current cell JSON (if not empty) from the main list of JSON object and add the new version after (and store the new version with the current cell).

Once it’s ready, you send all the JSON to a backend WF with [] around it so it’s an array and in backend WF, you schedule on a list to create all contact (or update if this is something possible in your settings)
