Refreshing / Updating Filters

Scenarios

Refreshing

You want to remotely force a refresh on any widget from any dashboard currently open in a browser.
This can be because you want event-based refresh.
This can be because you want very fast refresh (almost “live”) on some widgets.

You may want to filter target users who see this refresh.
This can be because you only want to force a refresh on the TV screen on the plant floor, and not disturb other users.

Updating Filters

You want to remotely send Parameters values inside any dashboard currently open in a browser.
This can be because you embedded the Alpana dashboard inside your application, and you want to send filter values from your application.

You may want to filter target users who see this filtering.
This can be because you want only the user currently browsing the application to see the filtering.
