How often do local variables stored in load evaluate?

Local variables stored in load evaluate once when the page is loaded. This means that when a user initially accesses a page, any local variables defined in its load expression are calculated and assigned their values at that time. Once the page is loaded, these variables retain their values until the user refreshes the page or navigates away from it.

This functionality allows for a more efficient management of data, as the variables do not need to be recalculated every time an interaction occurs on the page, leading to better performance and user experience. The other choices refer to situations that do not reflect how local variables behave in this context. For example, evaluating every time a user clicks or only when modified would imply unnecessary recalculations, which is not how local variable storage is designed to work in Appian's environment.
