Instant View Refresh in Odoo — No More Full Page Reloads

Why refreshing the whole browser page in Odoo is a daily frustration

Every Odoo user who works in a live, multi-user environment knows the situation. A colleague updates a record. A background automation runs and changes a field. A stock status changes after a delivery is validated. You are looking at the same screen and the data has not updated because Odoo does not automatically refresh the current view. So you do what every user does: you hit the browser refresh button, the entire page reloads, Odoo re-initialises, you wait for everything to load back, and then you navigate back to where you were. For something that happens dozens of times a day across an active team, this is a genuine productivity drain. A full browser refresh reloads not just the data but the entire Odoo application shell menus, assets, and session state just to fetch updated records that could have been retrieved in a fraction of the time. It also interrupts context: if you were mid-navigation, mid-filter, or working across multiple tabs, a full reload breaks your flow entirely.

The Instant View Refresh module by Creyox replaces the full browser reload with a targeted, in-place view refresh. It reloads only the current view's data not the whole page keeping the interface state intact, saving time, and removing one of the most repetitive interruptions in daily Odoo use.


Overview

The Instant View Refresh module adds a dedicated Refresh button to Odoo 15.0's tree (list), form, and kanban views. When clicked, the button fetches and reloads the current view's data directly from the database without triggering a full browser page reload. The Odoo interface, navigation state, active filters, and current position all remain exactly as they were. Only the data displayed in the view is updated, reflecting the latest state from the server in the same way a manual browser refresh would but significantly faster, and without losing any session context. The feature is available across all three primary Odoo view types. In tree view, the list data refreshes in place. In form view, the current record's fields and related data are updated without navigating away. In kanban view, the cards and their statuses refresh without collapsing or resetting the board. No configuration is required after installation the Refresh button appears automatically across supported views and is immediately available to all users.
