Dashboard2 ui-form

[alexander77]

Hi,
I have two questions regarding the ui-form:

• can the data made boot-secure (in case of a power failure)
• can i preload a dataset? The problem is, i need different setups which require different predefined inputs, which i will load from different files.
  Thank you in advance!

Do you mean the output and form submissions? If so, it can live in the Node-RED Context. This has an option to store in the localfilesystem, and not just in memory of Node-RED.

Yes, anything you send in msg.payload will populate you form. You can read more about it here
