Bug in AWS IAM Console for User Groups

I was just updating my deployment script to add users to groups as part of my latest blog series on automated security metrics:

Automating Cybersecurity Metrics (ACM)

I added a user to the Developers group. I had an existing user named Developer, added a new user name Developer2 using my add to group code.

After deploying my code I was on the users list. I clicked over to groups by clicking on Developers below.

The Developers group did not show that the Developer was in the group for some reasons.

When I refreshed the page by hitting enter at the top of the page and then the user showed up in the group.

Not a big deal but a tad confusing.
