AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0

Adds a new action type that reloads the current view when triggered. Developers can use it in buttons or automated actions to refresh the screen without navigating away.

This module introduces a new action type called ir.actions.act_view_reload. When this action is executed, it tells Odoo to reload the currently displayed view (for example, a list or form view) instead of opening a new window or performing another action.

  • It works behind the scenes: there is no new menu or button added by the module itself. Instead, it provides a building block that other modules or customizations can use.
  • The action is handled by the web client: when the action is triggered, the current view is refreshed, keeping the user on the same screen but with up-to-date data.
  • The module only defines the action type and its handling; it does not add any business logic, fields, or automatic rules.
  • It depends on the standard web module and is installed as a technical component.

This is useful for developers who want to force a view refresh after some operation, such as after a button click that changes data, without requiring the user to manually reload the page.
