Timer function not appear!!

[Sobenara]

Can anyone help? Timer function cannot see it, it does not appear.

I want my apps to update every minute to fetch new data from excel

Hi @Sobenara - Can you explain little bit more about the requirement.
What exactly you are looking to achieve using timers?

[Sobenara]

Have pictures that change automatically in data that I have in Excel, but it doesn't change automatically in the app unless I update the browser

hi @Sobenara 

the time properties you need to use are:

• Duration: the time you want to refresh, is in milliseconds 
• Repeat: true so the timer runs always
• Auto start: true. when the page loads the timer loads 

On the OnTimerEnd property Collect your data e.g. ClearCollect(colYourData, yoursource) or Refesh(yourSource)

That should do it.

hope it helps,

R

@Sobenara custom page in the model-driven app, no timer control there. if it is a normal canvas app, then i suggest you log a ticket with Ms.

With regards to the issue of the timer control not being available in custom pages, there's a post in the ideas forum that you can vote for here.
