What happened?

When updating library step templates in VCS-based projects, the deployment process UI does not update to reflect changes in the step template parameters. This applies to Variable names and changing the default values.

Reproduction

• Create a "Run a script" Library Step Template with a Param.
• Add step template to VCS-backed project
• Commit/Create release
• Update the parameter name on the Step Template and save
• Update the step template version on the VCS project (Do not refresh/navigate away)
• Inspect committed OCL
• Witness param field not changing
• Update the value of the param field and commit
• Inspect committed OCL, see multiple params saved.

A similar process can be followed but with updating the default value of a param, and following the same update process. The value will show as default after the update, but after a hard refresh, it comes up as a custom value with the old default.

Workaround

If updating a Step template in a VCS-backed project, refresh the web UI after updating to ensure the current values.
