When you start a Narrative Batch Generation, the Generated tab now shows a live progress bar and percentage that tells you exactly how far the batch has progressed. While the batch is running, the list of generated documents refreshes automatically so you can see new items appear without having to reload the page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often does the UI check for progress?
A: Every 4 seconds while a batch is still generating.
Q: Will this increase server load?
A: The polling interval (4 s) balances responsiveness with network usage and matches existing back‑end capacity.
Q: What if I switch to another batch before my current one finishes?
A: The grid will be replaced with data from the newly selected batch, and polling will start for that batch instead.
Q: Does this work on all browsers?
A: Yes – it uses standard HTTP requests and CSS; no special plugins are required.
Q: Can I turn off auto‑refresh?
A: Not currently; auto‑refresh is built into this feature to ensure you always see up‑to‑date results
