refresh gallery automatically

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 394

Hi all,

 

How do I get a gallery to update every 5 minutes without having to refresh the page? 

 

Currently I have a app which contains a form the details from this form go into a sharepoint list. This sharepoint list is then viewed on a gallery depending on specific dates (weeks worth)

 

Is is possible to get it to refresh every 5 minutes so that I dont need to keep refreshing?

    you can manually refresh the gallery when u start the app or when a screen is visible

     

    just use the Refresh function

     

    so Refresh(yourgalleryname)

     

    and normally the gallery refreshes automatically when a new entry was submitted

    Use a timer in your app and configure the timer to refresh every 5 minutes.

    After the 5 minutes, use the Refresh() function to refresh your gallery and then restart the timer again.

     

    If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know. Have a great day! 😊
