In this short blog post, I will share with you how you can refresh the Model-Driven apps forms and/or Main Grids/SubGrids from a Custom Page (Canvas app)

The Data Refresh Model-Driven App Main Grid/Forms from a Custom Page feature allows users to build custom pages with data grids and forms that can be automatically refreshed on a regular schedule. This functionality is useful for keeping track of large amounts of data, or displaying the latest information in an easy-to-read format.

With this feature, users can configure their own refresh schedules and intervals, allowing them to automate their workflow and keep up with changes quickly. Additionally, they can create customized views to filter out irrelevant information or focus on specific areas of interest.

Note, that we are passing data from the Model-Driven App page as a parameter to ribbon actions .
