Table Model Refresh

Good news for you Nate. Our new Action framework makes this a snap! You will need to have the new 5.6 version of Skuid installed in a sandbox. We pushed it to most sandboxes on Friday night, or you can get it from Get the Latest Skuid Releases & Everything That Came Before. We are still polishing the edges, so don’t reccomend putting it in production org yet. But if you are living on the edge…

Anyway - here is what you do…

1. Go to your “view record details popup” and add a page title. In that title add a button with type “run multiple actions” (you can also remove the save and cancel
   buttons from the details field editor).
   

2. Set up the actions as follows:

• Save Model(s) – save the model driving the table and the details.
• Query Model – refresh the model in the table
• Close all Popups

In my testing - this did exactly what you were after. I hope it works for you…

Wow, that is awesome! Thank you so much for the help.

This functionality is not working for me from within a wizard. I have a javascript which saves selected records from a table of account contacts to meeting attendees. Once the contact is saved to the meeting attendees, that contact should no longer appear in the list of account contacts to choose from. I even added the Empty Model and Query Model actions against the Meeting Attendees model after the javascript runs to add the selected records. The table empties and reloads, but still with the contact(s) that should be omitted. If I reload the whole page, the filter is applied correctly and the account contacts shows only the relevant records. Is there some sort of limitation because I am using this within a wizard step?

I’m not sure you need any Javascript. I’ve built a page that does this purely with action framework steps. It should also work within a wizard process.

I think the key issjues is going to be: Ordering your models in the right sequence so that as they are requeried, the atendees are correct so that only contacts that are not in the attedees list are shown.

The sequence I used is kicked off from a row action on the Contact Table. It does the following things.

1. Create new row in Attendees model - and passes the Contact ID into that record.
2. Save Model Changes. (Meeting needs to be saved here, or previously)
3. Query the Models - first Atendees and then Contacts.

Here is the XML for my test page.

Hopefully this will work for you…

Thanks, Rob - your example still isn’t working for me as the contact that I add as attendee isn’t removed automatically from the table of contacts shown on the page.
I outlined the record that should have been removed from the table of shown contacts after the Model was (re)queried by the row action.
Does it work for you? Is it just me?? 🙂 This little glitch of mine is bringing me a slow death…

In my org the contact is moved over from the available contacts to the event relations.  It works for me.  So why not you… 

Would you mind granting login rights to Skuid for your org, and then sending an email to support@skuidify.com with your ORG ID and the name of this new page you created?   I’d like to take a look at what is going on… 

Hi Rob, the contact gets moved over, but not removed from the list of contacts in the contact table. Table A = Contacts, Table B = Event Attendees. Selected contact from Table A gets added to Table B, but the refresh of Table A does not remove the contact. At least not in my page. I have granted Skuid login rights to my dev org, and will email that Org ID to support. Thanks!

Hello! Wondering if there was ever a solution to this issue? I’m working through a similar problem. Thx!
