Hi Robert,

I do not know the answer to your question, but I think you are asking in the wrong list. You may have better success on `qgis-developer` (I added it in, so this is getting cross-posted)

    Hi All!

    I am trying to understand the behavior of Layer->Render-> Refresh
    layer at interval in QGIS

     1. I sat up a flask rest api which serves a geojson.
     2. I added the geojson to QGIS via Add Layer->
         1. a. Protocol HTTP/cloud/etc
         2. b. Type: HTTP
         3. c.URI: localhost/points.geojson The points are represented
            on the map correctly
     3. I changed the layer->Properties->Rendering-> Refresh layer at
        interval (5 sec)

    I would have expected that there would be a call every 5 seconds
    towards the server and the map data would be updated accordingly.
    But the layer does not get refreshed. I don't see any changes
    neither when I remove a point from the json file on my local
    drive, nor if I change an attribute. If I press F5 then the canvas
    refreshes and it automatically loads the new data and I can see
    the changes. Is this the behavior that is wanted or am I
    misunderstanding the function of this tool? It seems like the data
    is cached somewhere?

    |from flask import Flask from flask_restful import Api, Resource
    import json app = Flask(__name__) api = Api(app) class
    point(Resource): def get(self): with
    open('C:/points/venv/src/points.geojson') as json_file: data =
    json.load(json_file) return data
    api.add_resource(point,"/points.geojson") if __name__=="__main__":
    app.run(debug=True)|
