Reloading RG Data after PUT API updating values in custom backend

[robbie3]

I have a repeating group element that displays data from my backend. Recently, I added a feature that allows users to edit cells in the repeating group and PUT the updated cell value to our backend. However, I encounter an annoying issue: when a user edits a cell and the PUT API is triggered, we recalculate the other cell values in the backend. Unfortunately, these recalculations are not automatically reflected in the repeating group in Bubble.
Is there a way to reload the repeating group without refreshing the entire page? I’ve tried adding a workflow step after the PUT request to “display data in a list,” call the GET data API again, but this errors with the classic, “Sorry, we ran into a temporary bug…” alert in bubble.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

It does this in real-time, with no Bubble Database needed. When my app loads, it goes and grabs all of the current …
