Reset/reload components

You can configure your page to reset or reload page components as required. For example, you can configure your application to clear all values after a user submits data so that the app can be used again.

How it works

Reset/reload components actions can be configured to clear the entire page or only specific components. This action can be set up as a follow up action for components configured with a Run recipe action or as the primary action for button components.

The following diagram explains how follow up actions work in conjunction with Run recipe actions.
