Is it possible to save inputs to a form, even if the page is refreshed?

I am creating a form with many, many inputs. It’s frustrating for the user to have to re-input all the information should the page refresh.

Is it possible to save the inputs, momentarily, until the “submit” button is pushed?

Use ‘Autobinding’.

That way, inputs are saved to the database as they’re created.

You can save it to the current user. That data will stay even if the page is refreshed. There are actually many ways to do this, that’s just one idea.

Hope that helps!

If the user is logged in and you want to require them to explicitly click a button to save the data, you could use Bubble’s auto-bind feature with a “draft” approach to achieve this.

Basically, while the user is filling out the form, they’re actually modifying a “thing” in the database that’s flagged as a “draft” version. When they click submit, it actually modifies the DB “thing” by removing the “draft” status flag.
