A new āForm Dataā component was added to the latest Wappler version and it makes sending complex data structures to the server side really easy:
Intro
Often you need to send complex data structures with form submissions, for example sending your shopping cart data to the server side. The Form Data component makes it easy to send such data to your server actions.
Page Setup
In our example we will show you how to send the contents of the Data Store component to a server action.
We have a really simple shopping cart page, where you can add products to a data store and you can submit an order via a Server Connect Form. We want to send thā¦

Thanks, Teodor! This makes using the data store a tool I can use more often, reducing actions needed to get this data to the server action.
Thanks again,
