Refresh Tag List Enhancement in Historian Client (Process Improvement)

ADO Work Item #4784132 — Refresh Tag List Enhancement in Historian Client (Process Improvement)
https://dev.azure.com/AVEVA-VSTS/_workitems/edit/4784132

DESCRIPTION

In Historian Client, there is no option available to refresh the server or tag list. Whenever backend changes are made (for example, adding or deleting historized applications/tags), the updated information is not reflected automatically in the client.
Users are required to restart the Historian Client to retrieve the latest configuration and tag information. This results in workflow interruptions, especially in environments with frequent configuration changes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Pre-Condition/Prerequisite:
1. Historian Client is connected to a Historian Server

2. Existing historized applications/tags are visible in the client

3. Backend configuration changes are performed (add/delete/update tags)

Expected Result: Users should be able to refresh the server/tag list within the Historian Client and immediately view the latest configuration changes without restarting the application.

Actual Result:
Updated tags or configuration changes are not reflected automatically. Users must restart the Historian Client to retrieve the latest server/tag information.

Additional Notes:

This limitation impacts usability.
