Warn users about unsaved changes on manual flow trigger

[Dominic-Marcelino]

Summary

When you're on an items page:

1. make some changes
2. don't save and
3. then trigger a flow manually
   ... the flow will be triggered with the previously saved flow.

In these situations the chances are high, that the user wanted to trigger the flow on his new changes. To solve this, I suggest showing an alert before, warning the user that he has unsaved changes on this item and if he want's to save them first.

Basic Example

see above

Motivation

Prevent users from triggering flows before they have saved the items

Detailed Design

• After a manual flow-trigger it must be checked if there's any unsaved changes and if so ask the user if he'd like to save first.

Requirements List

Must Have:

• Check for unsaved changes on single items pages and warn the user before triggering the flow

Should Have:

• Implementation for layouts (related to new Spreadsheet layout)

Could Have:

• Setting to enable / disable the warning

Won't Have:

/

Drawbacks

additional step in case I really want to run the flow before saving
