A [function trigger](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/globals/trigger_custom_function) starts the flow and [update server state fields](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/state ui/state_update_state_fields) writes the named keys from the page state back to the backend. The keys pin takes an array of key names, built here with [with values](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/array/array_of_values) from two values. The flow then continues, here into a [debug](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/state ui/state_debug) block that logs the state.
