After setting up the User Profile Service Application in SharePoint 2010 I checked out the new Organizational Browser feature in SharePoint 2010. It worked well, but after updating some of the properties in the profiles directly and checking back I noticed that the data had not updated and appeared to be “cached”. I’m not certain it actually is caching the data but after performing an application pool recycles in IIS the organizational browser data was updated and displaying correctly. I’ll going to keep my eye on this and see if there’s a timer job that perhaps is supposed to refresh the data periodically or if there’s a setting I just haven’t come across yet. In the meantime if anyone else discovers more information on this, drop me a comment below.
