Hello @ModyQyW! I'm Dosu, your friendly bot here to help you with bugs, answer questions, and assist you in becoming a contributor. I'm here to support you while you wait for a human maintainer. How can I assist you today?

I found some similar discussions that might be relevant to your issue:

  1. Ensure the 'inputs' field in /chat-messages takes effect every time - This discussion is still open and might provide insights into input handling issues.
  2. The inputs of the conversation cannot be modified after the conversation is created? - This is another open discussion that addresses issues with modifying inputs in ongoing conversations.
  3. Help My text keeps getting deleted - This discussion is also open and might relate to your problem with input loss.

Additionally, there are known limitations in Dify version 1.2.0 regarding input handling. Dynamic input variables cannot be modified for existing conversations, and new configurations only apply to new conversations. This means that any changes to input variables in ongoing sessions will not take effect, which could be related to the issue you're experiencing [1].

To continue talking to Dosu, mention @dosu.
