We are currently using a process_flow on views/table forms with auto-save enabled. The docs clearly state and Add row cannot trigger a process_flow in a Form component with 'auto-save’ enabled. Even though we have auto-save on in the form an Add-row processflow is succesfully triggered. My question is, before we go futher in implementing this method in our application and spend a lot of time towards this goal: Is this something that is made to work with newer gui's (we use 2024.2.12.0) and is the docs outdated? Or might it be working because of some bug or something that might stop working in a new release, because it's not really supported/supposed to work?

Hi Guido,
The docs are indeed outdated here. In previous increments of the UIs, process flows would not be initiated on auto-saving.
Nowadays, auto-save will trigger a process flow. But it is worth nothing that any subsequent user interaction advised by this process flow may be discarded as the user already has moved on to another action by auto-saving.
For instance, when the auto-save is initiated by executing a task. The task will take precedence.
