Unable to see the inserted record without refreshing the detail page of a Salesforce Custom object related list in Lightning.

Hi Team,

We are overriding Standard detail page using visualforce page in that we are added related lists " Open Activities" and "Activity History". In Lightning after adding Event or Task the detail page is not refreshed and newly added Event or Task not visible in the detail page.

Please let me know how can we resolve this issue.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Lakshmi,

Greetings to you!

Currently, there is a known issue in lightning that prevents reflection of data updates on UI.

https://success.salesforce.com/issues_view?id=a1p3A0000001C8QQAU&title=data-not-updated-in-ui-after-an-apex-update-in-lightning-experience

Workaround by SF:

Updates made to Lightning Experience and Salesforce app components may occasionally not be reflected in the UI. Updates initiated by a different user or a different channel (API, Apex Trigger, etc) require an additional mechanism in order to update the UI. 

The recommended solution is to refactor the component to use Lightning Data Service (force:recordData). Lightning Data Service provides a performance increase and eliminates out-of-sync issues. If you can’t refactor your component to use Lightning Data Service, you can also use force:refreshView to request a page refresh.

You can use force:refreshView to force all data to reload. Try like this: 
clientMethod : function(component,event,helper) {
        var action = component.get("c.serverMethod");   //calling server-side method
        action.setParams({
        "serverParameter":clientParameter
    });
        action.setCallback(this, function(response){
            var state = response.getState();
            if(state === 'SUCCESS'){
                $A.get('e.force:refreshView').fire();
            }
            ...
            ...
            ...
        )};
        $A.enqueueAction(action);
},

/*page refresh after data save*/
    
    isRefreshed: function(component, event, helper) {
        location.reload();
    },

And don't forget to add below handler in your component: 
<aura:handler event="force:refreshView" action="{!c.isRefreshed}" />

Also, please make sure to turn off browser caching in your Org.
  • From Setup, locate the link to ‘Session Settings’.
  • Locate the ‘Caching’ section.
  • Uncheck the option to ‘Enable secure and persistent browser caching to improve performance’.

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.
