Summary

Documents the new Refresh behaviour for data apps, which now invalidates the warehouse cache the same way the dashboard refresh button does.

Changes

  • Added a "Refreshing the preview" subsection to the Data apps guide explaining what the Refresh button does, when to use it, and that it latches cache invalidation on.
  • Noted that the same action is available from the menu on the standalone preview page.

Context

Upstream PR extends the refresh-invalidates-cache behaviour from dashboard tiles to standalone data apps in both the builder and the standalone preview page. The initial app load still serves cached results for speed; once a user clicks Refresh, every subsequent query bypasses the cache for the rest of the session.
