Have you seen this extension for JupyterLab called [jupyterlab-interactive-dashboard-editor](https://github.com/jupytercalpoly/jupyterlab-interactive-dashboard-editor)? Look under the [Additional Gifs](https://github.com/jupytercalpoly/jupyterlab-interactive-dashboard-editor#additional-gifs) because it looks like it lets you save the dashboard. Maybe that will do what you are looking for?

Thanks for your answer. Maybe I misinterpreted my problem.  
I mean value in ipywidgets in pic.1

Later, users changed value.

How can I save new value after restart voila? How can I save a new user’s value?

Thanx a lot for your answers:)

I think you need to be clearer what you mean by ‘restart’ voila and what your environment is?  
My guess is that you want persistence? I believe there is a way based on what was discussed [here](https://github.com/voila-dashboards/voila/issues/515). I haven’t done this, and so I am unclear if you want to be triggering a save of the notebook every so often or caching it is enough.

I mean if user log off in voila page and enter again. I want to save new values in widgets.
