Trouble with implementing writeback

I am following the instructions here (Video ‒ Creating a basic write-back example with Qlik Cloud | Qlik Help) for implementing writeback.

The variables are being passed through to Automations with the value in the dataset and not the values entered into the variable input object.

The update worked if I create unbound variables by removing the definition of the variable, but the variable input objects will not update to have the value of the selected data row before being edited.

How do I bind my variables to both the dataset and the variable input object AND have the values passed to the automation?

This is a common issue with variable inputs in Qlik Automations, where the dataset values are passed instead of the actual user-entered values from the variable input object. This can cause inconsistencies during the writeback process.

A more reliable approach is to avoid heavily variable-dependent flows and use a direct writeback method instead. Solutions like SenseOps Writeback capture user inputs directly from the UI, helping reduce these mismatches and making the writeback process more reliable and easier to manage.
