AngularJS refresh smart table after inserting new record in Bootstrap Modal Form

Question

I use angular-bootstrap and and Angular Smart table. I have a modal form which adds new records to database and shows the list in my smart table. Adding new records is working fine but how do I refresh my smart table after a new record is inserted into the database.

Controller

//ajax request to gather data and list in smart table
october.controllers['dashboard/feeds'] = function ($scope, $filter , $request, $modal, $log, $http) {

    $scope.api = $request('onFeeds', {success: function(data, scope){
        this.success(data).done(function() {
            $scope.rowCollection = [];
            $scope.rowCollection = angular.fromJson(data.result);
            $scope.displayedCollection = [].concat($scope.rowCollection);


            });
        }
    });
}

//Modal

var ModalInstanceCtrl = function ($scope, $modalInstance,  $request, $filter) {


    $scope.save = function (data) {

        $request('onAddFeed',

        {data:data, 
                success: function(data){
                this.success(data);
                    $scope.refresh();
                    $modalInstance.close();

            }
        });

    };
};

Template

        <script type="text/ng-template" id="myModalContent.html">
            <div class="modal-header">
                <h3 class="modal-title">neue Feed eintragen!</h3>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-body">

Answer 1

{data:data, 
            success: function(data){
            this.success(data);
                $scope.refresh();
                $modalInstance.close();

        }

In the above code Instead of $scope.refresh() use $route.reload() to Update the records before closing Modal Instance.

reload() Causes $route service to reload the current route even if $location hasn't changed
