Hi @elalemanyo I'm using this patch in a similar environment. At our company we have a dashboard with many charts and with a range picker we update the charts. In our case we trigger the request from javascript and we ask for a turbo-stream response.
Like this:
import { FetchRequest } from '@rails/request.js'
const request = new FetchRequest("get", url.toString(), { responseKind: "turbo-stream" })
const response = await request.perform()

In your case try to check for the request to includes a turbo-stream mime. If not try to investigate further on the correct scope of the target with data-turbo-target
