Activity for Savable Data Page of List Structure
I could use single page savable Data Page for saving data edited directly from UI to DB but unable to understand what logic needs to be applied for list structure.
In 8.3 version, I created this list structure savable data page. I displayed the content on UI table with editable option enabled sourced from data page. In flow action post processing, I've mentioned name of this savable Data Page.
Now when i'm updating few rows on UI, expecting same to reflect in DB. What would be the logic in Activity to achieve this? Will this be different from any usual activity that applied DB operations?

I think it would be same logic of usual activity to save the list to the DB. We need to loop through the list and save each record.

In data Save options, we have Database Save save type option is available if the type is page, for the list this option is not available.

If someone else is looking for the same info, I got it from the blog below
https://onestoppega.com/data-modeling/savable-data-page-in-pega/
Just to summarize, this activity doesn't need to open object explicitly like usual activity. We need to just save the records.
Other benefit would be that Business and transactional logic remain together & Easy to maintain compared to conventional way.
