Is there a way to automatically accept the update message in the client.  
(for example in a client script based on editCount change)  
I have Ignition Client for TV with no mouse/keyboard.

You can change the Client Update Mode to Push as shown in the docs.  
I don’t know of any way to do it just for an individual client.

Something along these lines (untested) should work. You’ll need to run it from some component - maybe a timer component periodically on a docked window or something like that:

```auto
from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.util.gui import IgnitionSwingUtilities
from com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.runtime import ClientPanel

clientPanel = IgnitionSwingUtilities.getAncestorOfClass(ClientPanel, self)

clientPanel.updateBar.getLabel().doClick()

```

In Ignition 8.0, clientPanel can’t access updateBar

```auto
AttributeError: 'com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.run' object has no attribute 'updateBar'

```

I have tried to use **clientPanel.doUpdateProject()** according to :  
[http://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition80/8.0.0-beta/index.html](http://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition80/8.0.0-beta/index.html)  
but I have the following error :

```auto
AttributeError: 'com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.run' object has no attribute 'doUpdateProject'

```

Any idea ?

Try importing FieldUtils and reading the (package-private) `updateBar` field:
