Calling google.script.run.withSuccessHandler multiple times

Question

I'm trying to run refreshPage() every minute in a google web app. Although I cannot seem to get the function to repeat. Does anyone see any issues? It runs correctly the first time.

  $(document).ready(function(){
      setInterval(refreshPage(), 60000);
  });

  function refreshPage()
  {
      google.script.run.withSuccessHandler(googlescript).myfunction();
  }

The only problem is you call your function in set interval and then setInterval gets undefined as function. this is the solution (just remove parentheses in front of refreshPage in setInterval):

$(document).ready(function(){
    setInterval(refreshPage, 60000);
});

function refreshPage()
{
    google.script.run.withSuccessHandler(googlescript).myfunction();
}

If you want it to run once at the beginning then you can change you can use one of these suggestions:

function refreshPage() {
  console.log('refresh page');
}
refreshPage();
setInterval(refreshPage, 1000);

or

(function refreshPage() {
  console.log('refresh page');
  setTimeout(refreshPage, 1000);
})();
