Add Button to Refresh Data in Spotfire Cloud

A "refresh" button in Spotfire Cloud that reconnect/refreshes the Analysis from Library data would be super tight.  Currently, we have to close-out of the analysis and re-enter it to load fresh data, which comes every 15-30 minutes via Simplr Flow.

Implemented in 10.4

    Starting with Spotfire 10.4 released in June 2019 you can reload linked data in Spotfire Consumer and linked or stored data in Spotfire Business Author.

    That is a helpful suggestion. I hadn't realized tables could be refreshed individually.  However, it would still be useful to have a "refresh all" button in the event that many tables in the data source were updated.  Our Spotfire files are often created by inserting columns from many tables, up to 10 in some cases.  Individually refreshing 10 data sources is slightly annoying when a 'refresh all' is desired.

    Please try reloading data from Cloud Business Author's Source View. It expands from the data panel. Please see this help text for more information:

    The benefit of this is that you can hand pick what data sources you refresh thus avoiding refresh of all data sources potentially including large data sets not in need of a refresh.
