Refresh Detail view after firing javascript function

[rainolf]

Hello,
not able to accomplish this.

Custom button which run javascript that do ajax request on custom action controller.
If result is ok then i would to refresh the detail view where the button is placed.

Tried this:

 let url = window.location.href;
      SUGAR.ajaxUI.loadContent(url);

but it gives me an error:
Invalid URL

Any help would be appreciate.

And also is there any way to refresh only some fields instead the whole page?

Many thanks

Check this two samples:

How to refresh Detail View within logic hook?

Load a js file in your DetailView for Accounts and set it to reload the view once the save button for Contacts is clicked. Something like <script> $(document).ready(function(){ $('#contact_save_button_name').on('click' , function(){ location.reload(true); }); }); </script>

refreshing detail view when in subpanel a entry has changed

I asked Jim Mackin (who wrote the Developer Guide) and he said The Security Groups subpanel definition in accounts has an example of this out of the box In the subpanel definition you can add "refresh_page" => 1, I see that you were already on to this property (I didn’t know about it). Maybe checking with the SecurityGroups example might help you figure out if some detail is wrong in your code? root@SuiteCRM /var/www/html $ see refresh_page | grep -i security /var/www/html/modules/SecurityGro…

I’ve already seen the first example however seems that location.reload(true) is deprecated.

So I am searching for a better way to do this.

Any hint?
Thanks

This is the solution i’ve found so far, maybe can helps someone.

function refresh(message) {
    alert(message);
    window.location.reload();
}

In this way the browser do a refresh after user click ok on alert message.

I think a full page refresh should be avoided, instead the Ajax architecture should be used to make things less obvious to the user.

However - I don’t know how to do it, sorry.
