Triggering Object Refresh from Server-side script

in FileMaker Server 13

My solution has a Home layout dashboard with buttons that are conditionally formatted to monitor the addition of records into certain tables. When records are added to the tables, the button turns red.

 

Populating the tables with data from outside my environment is being done every 30 min via a FileMaker Server 13 scheduled script. 

 

As I monitor the Home layout, the server-run script cannot refresh my objects so that I can see them turn red in real time. Does anyone know of a work-around that would allow the script to trigger refreshes where appropriate?  Or perhaps you've pursued another strategy to make this concept work?

 

Thanks!!
