Reload page actions are used whenever all, or part of a page form may have inaccurate data on it as a result of a form saving, or a series of actions changing data on it. A typical use for this is when a page in a popup changes data that's shown on the page it was launched from and so that page needs to be reloaded prior to closing the popup. This action belongs on a “Link is clicked” automation trigger.
Choose which form to reload. You can reload the current page (Current Page) or just the current form (Current Form). If this action is execeuted on a page in a popup, you can also reload the page below the popup (Page Below), or just the form in the page below from which this popup was launched (Form Below). If this action is executed on a link field in a list form you can reload just that list row (Current List Row). If it is executed on a popup launched from a list row it can reload the list row it came from (List Row Below). If this action is executed on a link field in a tree form you can reload just that tree row (Current Tree Row) or reload and expand the tree row's children (Current Tree Row and Expand it). If it is executed on a popup launched from a tree row it can reload the tree row it came from (Tree Row Below) or expand the tree row's children (Tree Row Below and Expand it).
You can also choose to reload another form on this page by choosing “Other Form”. This option requires you to enter the form ID of the form to reload. You can find this through the App Explorer or by hovering your mouse over the blue icon for the form you want to reload in the Presentation Layer.
