Refresh of a contained mashup from mashupcontainer widget

I have thingworx ThingWorx 9.6.2-b447 (PTC cloud hosted)

 

I have a mashup#0 with a mashupcontainer widget set it to open mashup#1. All is fine

I also have a button on mashup#0 to trigger the refresh of the mashupcontainer (clicked action linked to Refresh) ... because I want to reload the cotained mashup#1

 

By pushing the button, the refresh of mashup#1 seems to not happen.

Just mashup variable passes through mashupcontainer, but the refresh action is not done ...

What I'm doing wrong ?

Best answer by iguerra

The mashupcontainer Refresh event dows not works.

I cannot use the changed event of a mashup property, because there is no change

To leave it simple I had to use an auto refresh inside the contained mashup

You may try below approach as well:

 

1. Create mashup parameter lets say Counter, in both the mashup #0 & #1.

2. Bind mashup#0 Counter to Contained mashup Counter.

3. Set some value (e.g. 1) using expression to mashup#0 Counter on button click.

4. Inside Mashup#1, call the services on CounterChanged mashup event.

I already solved bu using the "changed" event of a mashup property

but ... is there the refresh action on the mashupcontainer widget ? shouldn't it works ?

In my case I have an update on the contained mashup content (retrieved with a service), the easiest ways is to just refresh.

 

I can use a trick with a variable that I have to change to force some refresh inside the contained mashup, but if thingworks give me the refresh action I think it should work..
