How to refetch a "use server" function / RPC?

I've created a server function that I can confirm works as expected, now I'm trying to figure out how to "correctly" re-run this function on a timed interval.

Using the documentation (https://start.solidjs.com/core-concepts/data-loading), it first mentions

createResource()

createResource()

for requests, which makes sense since it comes with a mutate and refetch function. Then it goes on to give a "Data loading always on the server" example, now moving to

createAsync

createAsync

and

cache

cache

(both /router imports), but from my attempts to use those examples, they work for initial page load but do not appear to contain mechanisms for re-running the server function and updating the UI accordingly. Additionally, the example listed above doesn't seem to actually run anything async (there's no

await

await

in that async server function), so I'm wondering if maybe the example is still missing something (like when is the

route

route

object used?! Is it a magic object / used somehow when exported from a page? Not listed in API Routes tab).

Am I missing something?
Thanks!
