Hi,

I have a editable grid.

https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.4/recipe-add-edit-and-remove-data-in-an-inline-editable-grid.html

In the summary page, the entered values in the grid has to be displayed. The values of the grid are displayed only after the view is refreshing the page. 

How can we handle when the grid is updated and after submitting it is re-directed to summary view. And values should be displayed by Auto-refresh.

Any time you reload a summary view, all local values should be reloaded.  I assume you're referring to a related action, so is there a chance the user is being returned to the summary view before the data changes in the related action have had a chance to be written to the database?  Can you describe any more about your process flow, or what the user is actually experiencing?

I have a related action-> update.

When I update the values in the editable grid the values are return to DB. When I click submit then it is re-directed to summary view and the editable grid is not updated. Only after I refresh the page, the grid values are updated.

Is there a chance to auto-refresh the summary view.

Can you post a screenshot of your process flow?  I'm >90% sure you just need to enable activity chaining between the completion of the user input, and the WTDS node(s).
