Note: This release is in preview. Features described here don’t become generally available until the latest general availability date that Salesforce announces for this release. Before then, and where features are noted as beta, pilot, or developer preview, we can’t guarantee general availability within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available products and features.

setAbortable()

Sets an action as abortable. If the component is not valid, abortable actions are not sent to the server. A component is automatically destroyed and marked invalid by the framework when it is unrendered. Actions not marked abortable are always sent to the server regardless of the validity of the component.

For example, a save or edit action should not be set as abortable to ensure that it’s always sent to the server even if the component is deleted. Setting an action as abortable can’t be undone.
