Update Draft Metadata Node

The Update Draft Metadata node updates an existing draft with additional information such as claim type, event, and insurance object details, ensuring the draft metadata stays current and relevant. Only provided fields are updated, empty fields are left unchanged, and the draft's save date is automatically refreshed.

warning

Node is used exclusively for TellUs.

Use Case

Use the Update Draft Metadata node when:

• You need to update specific metadata fields of an existing draft without altering the customer's previously entered responses.
• You want to ensure that draft information such as claim type, event details, or insurance objects remains accurate and up-to-date as the customer progresses through the flow.
• You want to refresh the draft's save date automatically whenever metadata is updated, indicating the most recent modification time.

Do not use the Update Draft Metadata node when:

• You need to save the customer's entire progress and responses as a new draft; in this case, use the Save Draft node instead.

Behavior

• Blocking: the node waits for the draft metadata update to be processed before proceeding
• Produces output: updates the draft with provided claim type, event, and insurance object information, empty fields are skipped and retain existing values
• Supports validation: validates that the draft exists and the provided fields contain valid data
• Moves to the next node after the draft metadata has been successfully updated and the save date has been refreshed
