How to update codeigniter view dynamically?

Question

I am using a third party API. When the user is on a third party app and does some activity like messaging, the third party will send me a JSON request of activity to my CodeIgniter app endpoint.

I want to update the view of CodeIgniter with a notification that user sent some message etc.

I need some light that how to achieve this. Thanks

Use Ajax (Core or JQuery AJAX).. I prefer JQuery AJAX

 // You can use a setInterval also, but im using button click to call api $(document).on('click', '.button', function(event) { event.preventDefault(); var url1 = BASE_URL+"controller/method"; // Or your API $.ajax({ url: url1, type: 'GET', dataType: 'json', success : function(response){ // Access the json objects like this // eg. response.status, response.data etc. // Do DOM manipulation // eg. $('#target').text(response.data) }, failure : function(response){ alert("Error! Please Contact technical support"); } }); });
