Way to push a Clear/refresh images to a Control Page

Is there a way to push an update to the iOS Indigo app to refresh images.

I was trying to explain to my better half why the text of the display was correct but the graph was way out and the steps necessary to get the screen updated.

At this point she lost interest.

So anyway to auto refresh graphics or at least push an update so that the indigo client is actually reflecting current graphics accurately?

Is this a refreshing image URL? It should update as frequently as you have it set up.

Sounds like it’s not been created as a refreshing image url.

The images that are not refreshing are the charts made by the matplotlib plugin.

The images are being updated as files but the CP doesn’t always update them so require frequent cache clears per day.

Is there a way I can send a refresh graphics or clea,r cache remotely?

Have you added it to your CP as a Refreshing Image URL or as a Static Image?

It sounds like you've set it as a Static Image and expecting/wanting it to refresh automatically/on demand, which is what the Refreshing Image URL option is for.

That seems to have fixed it!

I did not consider local files as URLs.

Static images are files and dynamic images are URLs, just didn't make the leap between the two..

Looks better now.
