Regarding API info in vSphere 8.0 client SDK

kumar_t · ‎11-04-2022

Hi,

I'm going through the vSphere client 8.0 release notes and it is mentioned that a new javascript API(refreshPluginItemsState) was introduced. However, I could not find it in the SDK documentation

Could please provide some info on the usage and when to use?

Thanks,

Kumar

Hi Kumar,

This JS API refreshes the plugin views that rely on filtering conditions.
For example: Plugin A introduces a view that is dynamically filtered based on a property value of some object.
If the property value is changed by the plug-in using the public vSphere APIs, then the plug-in needs to call this API to signal the UI to re-evaluate the state of the initiator's plug-in related items.

Usage: htmlClientSdk.app.refreshPluginItemsState();

Let us know if you have any questions.

Best Regards,

Denis
