how to force automatically refresh ui-grid after adding row

Question

I spent a long time that to resolve this problem and need some help. I'm rendering grid on my page with help Angular Ui-Grid, but cannot force it to refresh data after I've added new row. In my main controller I have function 'create event' which is calling service and template for modal that to upload data:

  $scope.createEvent = function (eventTypeId) {

            var newEvent = null;
            var eventFields = null;
            var opts = {
                backdrop: 'static',
                backdropClick: true,
                dialogFade: false,
                keyboard: true,
                templateUrl: 'views/event.html',
                controller: 'EventEditCtrl',
                size: 'md',
                resolve: {
                    params: function () {
                        return {model: newEvent, fields: eventFields, caption: "Create event"};
                    }
                }
            };

            eventService.getEventTemplate(0, eventTypeId)
                .then(function (data) {
                    newEvent = data.model;
                    newEvent.id = null;
                    newEvent.occuredDate = new Date(newEvent.occuredDate);
                    eventFields = data.fields;
                    var uibModalInstance = $uibModal.open(opts);

                    uibModalInstance.result.then(function (data) {
                            $location.path("views/" + data.model.id);
                        }, function () {
                        }
                    );
                }, errorDetails)

        };

submit event and insert event from event controller look like

 $scope.insertEvent = function (event) {
        $log.info('insert');
        $log.info(event);

        eventService.insertEvent(event)
            .then(function (data) {
                $uibModalInstance.close(data);
            });
    };

$scope.onSubmit = function (event) {
    console.log(event);
  if (event.id == null || event.id == 0) {
      $scope.insertEvent(event)
  }
}

and finally my insert event service function looks like

    var insertEvent = function (event) {
        return $http({
            method  : 'POST',
            url     : apiUrl,
            data    : event
        })
            .then(function success (result ) {
                console.log(result.data);
                cachedEvents = result.data;
                return result.data

            }, function error (response){
                $log.error(" post has been failed ", response)
            })
    };

So insert works great, modal works great but grid doesn't update even if I'm trying to return promise or callback, it doesn't help,

I've tried to set refreshing after modal has been closed, event has been inserted or when submit button has been clicked, but nothing helps

   $scope.gridApi.core.queueGridRefresh();
          $scope.gridApi.core.refresh();
          $scope.gridApi.grid.refreshCanvas();
          $scope.gridApi.grid.refreshRows();

also I've tried to set notification if grid has been changed, but it didn't help either:

    onRegisterApi: function (gridApi) {
                $scope.gridApi = gridApi;

                gridApi.core.on.columnVisibilityChanged($scope, function (changedColumn) {
                    $scope.columnChanged = {name: changedColumn.colDef.name, visible: changedColumn.colDef.visible};
                });

                //**********

                gridApi.selection.on.rowSelectionChanged($scope, function (row) {
                    $scope.rowData = row.entity;
                    $scope.id = $scope.rowData.id;
                    $scope.rowKeys = Object.keys($scope.rowData);
                });

                gridApi.core.notifyDataChange( uiGridConstants.dataChange.ALL)
            }

original grid data initialization

 var getData = (function () {

                $http.get(urlData)
                    .success(function (data) {
                        // Considering Angular UI-Grid $scope.gridOptions.data should be declared as is
                        $scope.gridOptions.data = data;
                        // $interval whilst we wait for the grid to digest the data we just gave it
                        $interval(function () {
                            $scope.gridApi.selection.selectRow($scope.gridOptions.data[0]);
                        }, 0, 1);
                    });
            }());

I appreciate if somebody could help me to find my mistake.

Try this in your "then" function:

$scope.gridOptions.data.push(result.data);
