How to save or cancel the edited DataForm data in .NET MAUI DataForm (SfDataForm)?

In the Syncfusion® .NET MAUI DataForm, you have the capability to either save or cancel edited data. This article demonstrates how to implement these functionalities.

C#:

When the Cancel button is clicked, the DataForm will reset to its initial state by creating a new data object.

private void OnCancelButtonClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   if (this.dataForm != null)
   {
       this.dataForm.DataObject = new DataFormModel();
   }
}

C#:

The Save button will commit the edited DataForm data using the Commit method. Ensure that the CommitMode is set to Manual.

private async void OnSaveButtonClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   if (this.dataForm != null && App.Current.MainPage != null)
   {
       this.dataForm.Validate();
       this.dataForm.Commit();
   }
}
