-----------------------------------
Summary: Right-click -> Refresh must also refresh the flow revision
Key: NIFI-1119
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1119
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core UI
Affects Versions: 0.3.0
Reporter: Andrew Grande
Priority: Minor
Following up on a discussion with [~mcgilman]. When updating the flow via a
REST api from an external process, there is a period of time where user doesn't
see flow updates. There is no way for the user to 'refresh' either, has to wait
for the next 30s cycle (default). From a UX standpoint, the Refresh should
update to the latest state of everything (stats and flow).
Suggestion: have the context menu's _Refresh status_ action fire an additional
request to the *revision* API to detect external changes. The UI will flag the
view as out of sync (maybe it should just update, because a user is already
trying to force an update?)
