How come my macro data isn't refreshing in new searches?

I have a macro that I created and have since added additional data to it. However, when I search the new data does not show up. I did CTRL+SHIFT+E on the macro in the search window, and it doesn't reflect the new data I added. However, I see all the data I added when I go to the macro settings.

Is there a way to refresh a macro to include the new data?

Try running a debug/refresh by navigating to $SPLUNK_URL:8000/debug/refresh and clicking on the refresh button that appears. Just replace $SPLUNK_URL with the URL you use to log into Splunk with. For example, to refresh Splunk on my laptop I go to http://localhost:8000/debug/refresh.
