Unable to refresh Smartview file

Dear all, i really need help here. tried searching around but to no avail. i have a smart view file. Where by when i open it, it will auto prompt login box. After login, it is possible to refresh all the worksheets.

however, when i use UiPath, the freshing worksheet does not take place. i tried both classic and Excel Process Scope both to no avail.
when the bot run and open the excel, there was no prompting of login. So i had to create step by step clicking to panel in order to force the login box for login. Even after i login, when clicked refresh, nothing happen. However, if i do it without bot, it works. T_T anyhelp is greatly appreciated really!!


Hi @winnie_toh

If it is an excel file then you can use the vb code to use in Invoke vba activity,

Sub RefreshWorkbook()
    ThisWorkbook.RefreshAll
End Sub

Or if it is a application, then refresh button not works find the keyboard shortcuts to refresh then you can simply use the Keyboard shortcuts activity.

Hope it helps!!

yes i tried that too but it didn’t work. T_T i read around it seems like it is a smartview file issue.
