&lt;p&gt;Actually, I was trying to make an interface where users can see the stats of a live match and for that, the score must be refreshed every 5 or 10 seconds. So I was thinking of using this plugin to achieve this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Refresh a variable in custom time interval</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/109784?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 21 Mar 2023 05:52:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:aca24680-ea34-4f0f-a6c8-c8b21d9561f8</guid><dc:creator>Harshit Bumb (Appyzie)</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;As much as I understand, 30 seconds was added with the thought that refreshing variables in less than that time will have performance impacts on the interface and its components.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the save is just a trivial one with no complexity (eg. changing the value of a single integer variable), then it won&amp;#39;t have any severe impact but as the save gets more complex, it will have an impact that will increase with the complexity.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So I guess unless it is&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;very necessary to refresh it in less than 30 seconds&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No complex calculations, saves and dependencies are there on the refresh happening&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;And you want to create a dependency on a custom plugin&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;then it is okay to use else try not using it for altering the refresh intervals.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
