How to force Angular to reload components when navigating to same url

Tested in Angular 11:

In module config for route module:

@NgModule({
imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes, {
onSameUrlNavigation: 'reload',
})],
exports: [RouterModule],
})

Set onSameUrlNavigation to ‘reload’

Whan using router.navigate() force url to update by adding a unique query parameter:

let navigationExtras: NavigationExtras = {
  queryParams: {
     refreshToken: (new Date).getTime(); //pass a dummy parameter (i.e. the time in milliseconds since 1970 or use the npm uuid library), forces reload of unique url
  },
};
this.router.navigate(['/detail'], navigationExtras);
