Is it possible to get and set the contents of an instance programmatically, from a client-side script running in the browser?
For getting, I have figured out that I can get (the current state of) an instance by calling getInstanceData() on the <fx-instance> like this, which returns an XMLDocument:
Is it OK to do this? Or is this an undocumented feature which may not be supported in the future?
For setting, I haven't found a way to do that. There is a setInstanceData() on <fx-instance> but that doesn't seem to have any effect.
This doesn't seem to be doable with submissions because a submission sends the instance contents to the server (I want it to stay in the browser). Or am I wrong?
