How to refresh repeater after submit

@_eric I would guess that you are trying to refresh the dataset before it is really updated, because you are not using code. That’s why it is not working. I tried using a Hook to capture the dataset change but could not do it, I guess inserting items through a form uses suppressHooks that cannot be changed.

So the solution I found was putting a 2 seconds delay on the .refresh() method call, like this:

let debounce
export function appcreateButton_click(event) {
    $w('#newappBox').hide();
    $w('#newappButton2').show();
    clearTimeout(debounce)
    debounce = setTimeout(async () => {
        await $w('#dataset2').refresh()
        console.log('Refreshed!')
    }, 2000)
}
