Avo reload_records Not Working in Grid View

Issue Description

In the grid view, calling reload_records does not refresh the records correctly. A manual page refresh is required.

Debugging Steps

✅ 1. Check Browser Console

• Open DevTools (F12 → Console)
• Look for JavaScript errors or network errors when reload_records is triggered

✅ 2. Verify Grid View Setup

• Are you calling reload_records inside a custom action or controller?
• Check if the method is being executed properly.

✅ 3. Check Avo Documentation & Source Code

• Avo might have changed how reload_records works.
• Check Avo GitHub Issues and Avo Docs for updates.

✅ 4. Force Turbo to Work (If Using Hotwire)

Try manually forcing Turbo to refresh:

Turbo.visit(window.location.href, { action: "replace" })

or, soft trigger reload
Avo.reload()

Hi @m7madmagdy,

The reload_records action response is not expected to work in grid view. As stated in the docs, this option leverages Turbo Stream to refresh specific table rows in response to an action.

Thanks for reaching out! We'll discuss the possibility of extending this feature to work with other view types, such as grid
