<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    
    var myPath = window.location.href;
    console.log(myPath);
    var newDatas = null;
    var table = null;
    
    $.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: myPath+"/refresh",
    success: function(data) {
        console.log("wow");
        newDatas = JSON.parse(data);
        console.log(newDatas);
        table = $('#myTable').DataTable({
            
            data: newDatas,
            columns:[
                {data :  "lang"},
                {data : "source"},
                {data : "author.screen_name"},
                {data : "author.description"},
                {data : "full_text"},
                {data : "created_at"},
                {data : "author.location"},
                {data : "author.followers_count"},
                {data : "author.verified"},
                {data : "author.name"}


            ]
        });
        
    }
    })

This works :
'''javascript
$(document).ready(function(){

var myPath = window.location.href;
console.log(myPath);
var newDatas = null;
var table = null;

table = $('#myTable').DataTable({
    "ajax": {
        "type": "GET",
        "url": myPath+"/refresh",
        "dataSrc": function(data){
            //console.log(data);
            newDatas=data;
            //console.log(newDatas);
            return newDatas;

        },

    },
columns:[
    {data :  "lang"},
    {data : "source"},
    {data : "author.screen_name"},
    {data : "author.description"},
    {data : "full_text"},
    {data : "created_at"},
    {data : "author.location"},
    {data : "author.followers_count"},
    {data : "author.verified"},
    {data : "author.name"}


]

});
setInterval( function () {
    table.ajax.reload( null, false ); // user paging is not reset on reload
}, 10000 );

});

Yup - a setInterval which calls ajax.reload() would be the way to do this.
