JavaScript API Reference / AFM.view.Component object

refresh(restriction, newRecord)

Refresh the control content. Actual implementation varies from one control to another, and typically will request new data from the server.

Parameters:

  • restriction (JS object): (optional) restriction to be applied to the control content
  • newRecord (boolean): (optional) flag for the control to display in the new record mode, applies only to form controls

Example:

Refresh the project report and apply the restriction based on department value selected in the console.

var form = View.getControl('', 'console');
var department = form.getFieldValue('dp.dp_id');
var restriction = {'project.dp_id': department};
var grid = View.getControl('', 'projects');
grid.refresh(restriction);
