Error message

The `update({ invalidateAll })` option has been deprecated in favour of `update({ refreshAll })`

What it means

SvelteKit deprecated the `invalidateAll` option in `form.update()` in favour of the unified `refreshAll` option, which also re-runs load functions outside the current page. The library warns once in DEV when the old option is passed so developers migrate before SvelteKit 4.0 removes it.

Solutions

1. Replace `update({ invalidateAll: true })` with `update({ refreshAll: true })`
2. If you only need the current page's loads re-run, omit the option entirely — success results invalidate by default
3. Remove any leftover `invalidateAll` keys from form update options via codemod/grep across the codebase

Example fix

// before
applyAction(result).then(() => update({ invalidateAll: true }));
// after
applyAction(result).then(() => update({ refreshAll: true }));

// before calling update
const opts = { invalidateAll: true };
if ('invalidateAll' in opts) opts.refreshAll = opts.invalidateAll;
delete opts.invalidateAll;
update(opts);

function usesInvalidateAll(opts) { return opts != null && 'invalidateAll' in opts; }

When it happens

Trigger: Calling `update()` on the result of a form submission (`<form method="POST">` action) with `{ invalidateAll: true }` (or any value) while running in DEV mode; `fallback_callback` in packages/kit/src/runtime/app/forms/client.js warns during the handle_submit flow.

Common situations: Codebases upgraded from SvelteKit 1.x to 2.x that used `invalidateAll` to re-run `+page(.server).js` load functions after a successful form action; tutorials and older docs still showing `update({ invalidateAll: true })`.
