Page Refresh Behavior on the Oracle ECP User Interface

The Oracle Enterprise Communications Platform (Oracle ECP) user interface provides manual and auto-refresh functionality on the Dashboard, Issues, Issues Details, Inventory, Inventory Details for devices and Cloud Connectors, Settings-User Management, Onboarding Requests, and Onboarding Request Details pages.

The page refresh functionality behaves as follows:

You can choose either manual or automatic refresh, when available.
When automatic refresh is available, you can choose a refresh frequency for auto-refresh. When you change the refresh frequency, the change applies everywhere in the current session.
When automatic refresh is available, the default refresh setting enables auto-refresh and the default time interval is every minute.
Upon refresh, Oracle ECP loads the same number of pages of data that was previously loaded. For example, if three pages of data are loaded, Oracle ECP re-loads three pages of data if that many pages of data is still available in the database. The UI displays a spinner when loading is in progress. On the Inventory and Issues pages, the numeric record counter updates after Oracle ECP loads each page.
For Inventory and Issues tables, where the number of records can be large, Oracle ECP disables auto-refresh when over 500 records are loaded. When a table contains over 500 records, refreshing typically takes longer than all auto-refresh frequency options creating a continual update cycle. Oracle ECP disables auto-refresh to prevent this scenario. Oracle ECP displays a warning banner when auto-refresh is disabled.
One way to avoid Oracle ECP disabling auto-refresh is to use one or more filters to reduce the number of records to load when you scroll to retrieve data.
When Oracle ECP must disable auto-refresh due to the number of records loaded in the table, it automatically re-enables auto-refresh after reducing the number of records through filtering or when you browse away from the table. Oracle ECP displays a toast message when auto-refresh is re-enabled.
After either auto-refresh or manual refresh completes when a table is present, Oracle ECP returns to the location in the table that was in view when refresh started. All table selections prior to auto-refresh or manual refresh remain selected after refresh.
When a pop-up or drawer opens on the User Interface, Oracle ECP suspends auto-refresh until the pop-up or drawer closes. When auto-refresh is suspended and someone else adds, removes, or modifies records, the updated set of records does not display until auto-refresh resumes or the current action from the pop-up or the drawer refreshes the page.
When you apply a sort order on the Inventory and Issues pages, Oracle ECP loads only the first page of data. The sort order does not reduce the data-like filtering, but temporarily reduces the number of records which re-enables auto-refresh if it was disabled. Use scrolling to cause more records to load.
Oracle ECP maintains the sort order and filter selections throughout auto-refresh, manual refresh, and scrolling.

Exceptions

The Thresholds tab on the Settings page allows only manual refresh.
The My Settings tab on the Settings page offers no manual or auto-refresh.
The Device and Edge Node details pages allow manual and auto-refresh, but they differ in behavior. Auto-refresh gathers information from the database. Manual refresh gathers information from and performs a full update of the charts.
