Refresh views from backend

Web Refresh From Backend

Backend UI Reload Module

This is a technical module that allows triggering a UI reload from the backend. It enables triggering the reload action for selected users and record IDs.

NB: this module refreshes views using direct actions instead of calling action_reload. This is done to avoid possible glitches and is aligned with the same approach used in the web_refreshed module.

view_types	List of Char (optional)	View types to reload, e.g. ["form", "kanban"]. Leave blank to reload all views.

Use this function wisely.

When reloading form views, be aware that if a user is currently editing a record, their unsaved updates may be lost.
