useInvalidate

useInvalidate is a hook that can be used to invalidate the state of a particular resource or dataProvider (with dataProviderName).

This hook will be called when a mutation hook is successful. For example, creating a Posts with the useCreate hook will invalidate the list (useList) and many (useMany) state of the Posts resource.

INFORMATION

The hook is used internally by refine. In most cases, you won't need this hook, but we export it as it may be useful for some use-cases that may require customized invalidation.


INFORMATION

refine uses TanStack Query to fetch and manage the state of the data. For more information about invalidation, please read the TanStack Query's invalidation docs.

Basic Usage

import { useInvalidate } from "@refinedev/core";

const invalidate = useInvalidate();

invalidate({
resource: "posts",
invalidates: ["list"],
});

Examples

To invalidate the "list" and "many" states of the Posts resource.

invalidate({
resource: "posts",
invalidates: ["list", "many"],
});

To invalidate the state of a Posts with an id of 1.

invalidate({
resource: "posts",
invalidates: ["detail"],
id: 1,
});

To invalidate the "list" and "many" states of the Posts resource of the dataProvider named "second-data-provider".

invalidate({
resource: "posts",
dataProviderName: "second-data-provider",
invalidates: ["list"],
});

To invalidate all states of the dataProvider named "second-data-provider".

invalidate({
dataProviderName: "second-data-provider",
invalidates: ["all"],
});

To invalidate all states of the Posts.

invalidate({
resource: "posts",
invalidates: ["resourceAll"],
});
INFORMATION

invalidate function returns a promise that resolves when the invalidation process is completed.

Invalidation Parameters

resource

A resource represents an entity in an endpoint in the API (e.g. https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev/posts). It is used to invalidate the state of a particular resource.

id

The id to use when invalidating the "detail" state.

dataProviderName

If there is more than one dataProvider, you should specify which one to use by passing the dataProviderName prop.

invalidates
required

Type: Array<"all", "resourceAll", "list", "many", "detail", "false"> | false

The states you want to invalidate. You can use the following values:

  • "all": Invalidates all states of the all resources.
  • "resourceAll": Invalidates all states of the given resource.
  • "list": Invalidates the "list" state of the given resource.
  • "detail": Invalidates the "detail" state of the given resource and id.
  • "many": Invalidates the "many" state of the given resource.

invalidationFilters and invalidationOptions

Type: InvalidateQueryFilters

The filters and options applied to the invalidation process when picking which queries to invalidate. By default refine applies some filters and options to fine-tune the invalidation process.

By default settings, all the targeted queries are invalidated and the active ones are triggered for a refetch. If there are any ongoing queries, they are kept as they are.
