Hi,

 

I read about workarounds such as embedding a view in HTML and using an IE plugin to auto-refresh. However, all the posts I found were >2 years old. Also we intend to use extracts whereas the posts were referring to live connections.

 

In particular our requirements are:

- real-time data (or close to real-time, i.e. with 1-2 minutes delay)

- no flashing upon reload (showing data continuously on a screen)

- preferably: using extracts rather than live connections

 

Is there a way to provide real-time data for e.g. monitoring stock prices?

 

Also is it possible to take this one step further and use extracts instead of a live connection and refresh these extracts on a minute-by-minute or even more regular basis?

 

Insights and hints are much appreciated .

 

Best regards,

Philipp

    Hi Philipp,

     

    Currently, the most frequent an extract can be refreshed is 15 minutes. 

     

    But If you can use tabcmd, might resolve issue to refresh the extract? If so, you can have a script or batch file that calls tabcmd to refresh the extract run on the machine that runs server.

     

    Here is a link to the tabcmd commands: tabcmd Commands

     

    After you get the file setup to refresh the extract, set it up in Windows Task Scheduler

    This may help you to get data every 3-5 min
