Automatically refresh data sources in Forms

asked on November 9, 2015

Is there a way to automatically refresh data sources in Forms?

I have an sql database that populates several fields in forms. I would like to have a set schedule so that I do not have to manually refresh the data source every time a change is made in the sql database.

Hi Dane,

To clarify, it is not necessary to refresh the data source every time you make any change in the SQL database. You only need to refresh when you are updating the tables and views that are available from the data source, such as when you add a new table or column.

Unfortunately, there is no current method to schedule refreshing your data sources, but the Forms team is aware of the request to make refreshing data sources easier.
