In a client side script, for the save record trigger, when I return false, the record still saves. How do I prevent this from happening?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In a client-side script, the saveRecord event is used to perform validations before a record is saved. If the function returns false, the save action is cancelled. However, if you're experiencing issues where the record is still being saved even after returning false, it could be due to a few reasons: 1. There might be another script that is interfering with your script. Check if there are any other scripts attached to the record that might be causing this issue. 2. Ensure that your script is deployed correctly and is executing as expected. You can use

console.log

or

alert

to debug and see if your script is running correctly. 3. Make sure that the condition under which you're returning false is being met. If the condition is not met, the function might be returning true by default, causing the record to save. Here's a simple example of how the saveRecord function should look like:

javascript
function saveRecord(context) {
    // Perform your validations here
    if (/* your condition */) {
        return false; // If the condition is met, return false to prevent the record from being saved
    }
    return true; // If the condition is not met, return true to allow the record to be saved
}

Remember, the saveRecord function should always return a boolean value. If it doesn't return anything (or returns undefined), it's treated as if it returned false, and the save action is cancelled. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
