How to refresh the datasource-based-on-a-view for a form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 847

I created a form that uses a view as a data source.  The view is based on a query.  A few days later I updated the query, added two fields to the view, but the form data source doesn't show the new fields as being available.  (See attached screen capture.)

I've tried using the "refresh" menu option on the fields list in the datasource for the form, but that has no effect.  Also tried incremental CIL generation.

Has anyone else run into this before?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,

djz

    Thanks, the suggestion to use the "Restore" context menu option worked.

    Hi Daniel,

    I have seen caching issues when a query was changed. If above suggestions did not solve your problem, try to delete the usage data for this query (or reset all usage data). This solved it in my scenarios.

    Try to browse the view and confirm that you are able to see the new fields in the Table Browser form

    Try synchronizing the view also
