Need a way to manually invalidate portal cache via javascript.

In ADXStudio portal version 7 you could send a request to .../Cache.axd?Message=InvalidateAll using custom javascript on the portal page. This does not work in version 8, and from reading other forum posts it sounds like the only way to manually clear the cache is to restart the portal. We have an application that uses the CRM API to update a quote and then returns to the portal page and refreshes the page, but the data from the quote does not get updated for anywhere from 1 to 5 seconds. Has anyone found a way to get the data on a portal page to refresh quicker, or at least a way to know when it is refreshed, using custom javascript on the page?

    Hi Derek,

    There are plugins in CRM (Web Notification Plugins) that trigger when records getting created or updated, which invalidates the portal cache. Plugins run in real time and there's no way to make it faster than 1 sec as far as I know. You could implement a JavaScript function to refresh the page after 5 seconds.

    Hey Nadeeja, thanks for your response. Waiting 5 seconds to reload is what we are currently doing, it's just not the ideal experience for the end user. I'm hoping to find some way to tell when the cache is refreshed so I can refresh the page as soon as it is ready. If it were consistently 1 second it wouldn't be so bad, there's just no way to tell if it's going to be 1 second or 5 seconds.
