ArcGIS Pro Python Toolbox updates enterprise geodatabase geometry, but map does not refresh until restart

[SrinijaKonduru]

Hello, I am using an ArcGIS Pro Python Toolbox (.pyt) to update lease geometries in an enterprise geodatabase using an edit session and arcpy UpdateCursor. The tool runs successfully and the geometry changes are written to the database, but the updates are not reflected in the map. The changes only appear after reopening ArcGIS Pro or removing and re-adding the layer. I have tried arcpy.RefreshLayer, ClearWorkspaceCache, and even forcing a version reset with ChangeVersion_management, but nothing has worked so far... The same logic works correctly in an ArcGIS Pro Notebook, where updates are visible immediately. Is there a way to force the map to refresh after ArcPy edits on enterprise geodatabase layers ?
Thank you!

When you have the layer in the Pro map, have you tried the "Refresh Version" in the Versioning tab: https://doc.esri.com/en/arcgis-pro/latest/help/data/geodatabases/overview/versioning-tab.html#970?

This worked, thank you so much!

Glad that helped!

I have found that Pro caches the data from the version in the map for better user experience. I also encounter this in branch versioned workflows.

I have also found that running Calculate Field from the python toolbox will force update the layer without having to click through any menus. I just tacked on something like FieldName = FieldName for a one row selection to keep things running quickly. The only caveat is that this will update any Editor Tracking, so just be sure to only select a row you made a change to, if you want to keep the Editor Tracking accurate.
