Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a new screen flow,
2. Create an arbitrary Get Records element,
3. Create a Screen element with a USF DataTable showing the records and a Text entry component with the default value of the DataTable Selected Row (any field).
4. Create a second screen element to show the value of the Text field from the first screen.
5. Run the Screen Flow, choose a row in the datatable, note that the text field value is updated to the field from the datatable by defualt.
6. Change the value of the text field to something else. Click Next

Expected behaviour

The value of the text field should be shown as the entered text from the prior screen

Actual behaviour

The value of the text field shows the original default value from the DataTable row instead

I'm not sure why this is happening. I've tested this workaround and it should resolve your issue.

• Create a formula resource in the flow and have it be the value of the Alias field in the selected row from the Datatable
• Use the formula as the default value for the text input

@alexed1 @adwhite75 The built in Data Table does not have this issue. Is there anything different I should be doing to support this type of reactivity?
