I have a canvas app with an edit form to modify an existing record. There is a cloud flow that runs when the record is saved, which updates the record (in some circumstances).
The problem is that I can't see the changes made by the flow immediately because it takes several seconds to run the flow in the background. So I have tried navigating to another screen (when the form is submitted), which has a 10 second timer (the flow is usually completed in about 4 seconds). After the timer has run it then navigates back to the detail form. Still no updates are showing even though I know the record has been changed.
I am assuming this is because the cache has not been refreshed for this record.
Is there a way that I can see the changes the flow has made to the record without going back to the gallery view?
I originally posted this in the wrong channel but got the following reply. If anyone can expand on this it would be great.
"If something needs to be done immediately you need to look at using a real-time Workflow (not Flow) or a synchronous Plugin, or if there is a way to in your scenario to hook up a HTTP triggered Flow (HTTP trigger is synchronous)."
You probably need to use the function Refresh([@’YourDataSource’]).
