That is correct. On Win7 I just zoomed in or out after the file was revised and it updated to the new geoj immediately. I did not try F5, but that should work also.
I am now on Linux Mint. Let me know if you want me to check it on this system. Mike On 11/22/19 2:00 PM, qgis-user-requ...@lists.osgeo.org wrote:

I thought that when I had an (live changing) online geojson source, (and added as url), I could easily 'reload' fresh data via F5 Not working for you? Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde On 22/11/2019 14.12, Olivier Dalang wrote:Dear list, Currently, when I load a geojson into QGIS, and modify the geojson file using an other software, the change isn't reflected in QGIS. The only way to reflect the change is to re-add the layer, or to run `iface.activeLayer().dataProvider().forceReload()` in the python console. I see could find neither a button or menu to trigger a reload manually, nor the option to do it automatically, nor a way to disable caching of such layers (which anyway would be suitable for very small layers only). Ideally, I was looking for an option like the "refresh layer at interval" options from the layer properties>rendering dialog (that option seems to just re-render the file, without reloading it, so that it doesn't work for my purpose). Thanks ! Olivier
