Another +1 to disable this feature. We require certain properties to be text heavy and this feature is autosaving them before the rep has finished typing which triggers automations to fire early and incorrectly.
Incredibly frustrating to see another half-baked feature released which causes us a big headache.
Same with us, or if you fat-finger something it messes up a whole SLEW of stuff. Not to mention possibly losing the record from a filtered view if you make a mistake…
I just want OP to come back and tell us if they regret suggesting this yet.
Posting for customer need/visibility - they have requested this to be rolled back several times, but so far have only been given a temporary solution.
The “undo” button is pointless if it cannot stop other triggers/actions from taking place as a result, most notably workflow actions and notifications.
Turning this off has been submitted as an Idea by another user - PLEASE go in and upvote this! https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Create-a-setting-to-turn-off-autosave-feature/idi-p/1134940#M156844
I haven’t read any ideas on how to work around this triggering workflows when it shouldn’t, other than delaying the workflow.
I haven’t tried this, but would it work to add a step to each workflow where a new checkbox “trigger workflows” has to be ticked in order to proceed, and when the workflow does proceed, it unticks the box before doing the main thing it was triggered for? IDK just brainstorming; maybe that only complicates things.
In case anyone hasn’t seen, it looks like this has been addressed. There is a post where they describe how to get a toggle to opt out of the auto-save. Just wanted to circle back to this group in case anyone else, like me, hadn’t seen this.
Thank you! I had not seen that. You are amazing
