# PocketBase SDK Auto-Cancellation
## The Problem
PocketBase JS SDK enables **auto-cancellation by default**. Every `create()` and `update()` call to the same collection shares a default `requestKey` derived from method + URL. When two calls to the same collection happen simultaneously (double-click, race condition, rapid re-submission), the second call **auto-cancels the first** and throws:
```
Error: The request was autocancelled.
```
This is surfaced to the user as "Error creating repair order: The request was autocancelled."
## The Fix
Pass `{ requestKey: null }` to ALL mutating PocketBase calls in `pocketbase.js`:
```js
// addDoc
const record = await pb.collection(collName).create(pbData, { requestKey: null });
// updateDoc
const record = await pb.collection(collName).update(docId, pbData, { requestKey: null });
// setDoc (both branches)
return pb.collection(collName).update(records[0].id, pbData, { requestKey: null });
return pb.collection(collName).create(pbData, { requestKey: null });
```
The `getDocs` and `getFullListLegacy` functions already pass `{ requestKey: null }` in their options.
## Belt-and-Suspenders: Double-Submission Guard
Even with `requestKey: null`, prevent duplicate form submissions by disabling the submit button on first click:
```js
function handleFormSubmit() {
const submitBtn = document.getElementById('submit-btn');
if (submitBtn && submitBtn.disabled) return; // guard
if (submitBtn) {
submitBtn.disabled = true;
submitBtn.textContent = 'Saving...';
}
// ... submission logic ...
// Re-enable after success:
if (submitBtn) {
submitBtn.disabled = false;
submitBtn.textContent = 'Create Repair Order';
}
// ... success cleanup (clear form, collapse section) ...
} catch (error) {
// Re-enable in catch block:
if (submitBtn) {
submitBtn.disabled = false;
submitBtn.textContent = 'Create Repair Order';
}
// ... error handling ...
}
```
This guards against: double-clicks, keyboard double-Enter, and accidental double-taps on mobile.
