Is there anything similar to PingPong in Business Central SaaS?

I need to update a screen every x seconds unattended.

I have the same question (0)

    You need to create a Javascript add-in. We've explained how to do that in our "Mastering Dynamics 365 Business Central" book.

    Very cool, thanks!  I own your book but haven't had a chance to go through it yet--but I just found the section on Javascript Control Add-Ins with the ping-pong example.

    Hi Stefano,

    Timer-based control add-in from your book is not working on web client. Did I miss something or I need something to setup?

    I also need to replace PingPong library for BC cloud.

    Thanks

    Works fine but keep geeting this message in the web client when refreshing a page in BC20:

    Any workarounds?
