Forum Discussion
Hey Chayce,
So the app I am working in is from the exchange called " Virtual Empower: App Library" by Ryan Pflederer. It's an incredible app that helps you manage your realm. One of the features allows you to "Refresh app schema". This takes you to a webpage where you add your user token and click submit to fire the script. I have altered the code page so that after clicking "refresh app schema", it does everything automatically. This is one step closer, but I would prefer if this happened every night at a specific time without me having to click the button. As for your question of what does the code page do, the code that Ryan wrote far excels my javascript and html knowledge, so I can't fully answer that, however, it is available for everyone to use.
This isn't at all urgent, so please don't feel rushed to reply, though I am looking forward to continuing this conversation.
Hope you enjoy your weekend!

I'm familiar with the app and have used it before. Unfortunately PIpelines still can't run the button. Pipelines can however make those same api calls and load to your app but it would all be rebuilt. I have used Pipelines for example to grab users and roles and load them as schema data internally as a comparable. The API calls that page makes though are all doable in Pipelines fetching the JSON response or QB will convert it's own XML to JSON for use in Pipelines so it's a lot of processing and work in Pipelines but can be done.
You could use a headless browser to click the button but that type of coding is much more difficult.
