The newly added client side API rbf_updateRecord() does not run triggers after update. I would think it should run triggers to remain consistent with server side API rbv_api.updateRecord()? Thank you.
It does run triggers. Are you using REST API or UI?
This is for UI.
Here's a sample scenario:
On a record View Page, add this code:
On the object, have an Integer field with integration name "integer". Also have a text field with integration name "test_text_field".
On the object, have an On Update object script trigger set to run when Integer field changes with the following formula:
var txt = "The integer field equals {!integer}";
rbv_api.setFieldValue("test_parent2", {!id}, "test_text_field", txt);
After you click the button "Update Integer Field", wait a couple seconds and refresh the View page. You will see the Integer field now has 123, but the Text Field is still empty. The trigger did not execute when the Integer field changed.
I'll take a look.
This should work now on rollbase.com
Try using triggers debugger.
