[SalesForce] Lightning – Refresh Component on Submit

I have built a lightning app containing 2 components.

1)Comp1 is the login page. Comp2 is the registration page.
2) After logging in user is taken to the registration page. User enters data here that goes into salesforce.

I want to –

1) To Show the progress while the record is being saved.
2) Refresh the page once data is saved.

I tried using $A.get("e.force:refreshView") but I am getting error as this event is being returned as null. Am I missing something?

Events like $A.get("e.force:refreshView") are only available in the context of Salesforce1 application. If you are not running inside SF1 then you have to use standard javascript means, like window.location.reload() or window.location.href = ...

Your custom components won't magically refresh even when you fire refreshViewEvent.

In all your custom components you have to implement the handler for refreshView and then call the initilizeMethod to refresh.

<aura:handler event="force:refreshView" action="{!c.doInitInCustomComponent}"/>


doInitInCustomComponent: function(cmp, evt, hlp){
    // your refresh logic here
},
