Is there a way to sync channels in a reference layer using code? I can't seem to find the function.

first of all a health warning -- I've never used this function, so I can't tell you what needs to be done before / after!

but hopefully this will set you on the way : MohoLayer:UpdateReferencedLayer(syncOptions) -- see: http://mohoscripting.com/index.php?show ... er&id=1117

This doesn't say anything about updating the channels though. I'm trying to find a way to sync the channels with the reference source.

That should sync all channels for that layer. Are you needing to selectively sync channels?

Yeah, I was planning to create a script that would iterate through all layers and sync certain channels to their source.

Sorry, I'm not seeing any access to resyncing individual channels by script. And UpdateReferencedLayer doesn't do the channels either.

Okay, I'll go ahead and make a ticket regarding this. There definitely needs to be a better way for managing reference layers.

I actually already created a ticket for this problem:

It was targeted for the 12.2 release but doesn't seem to have been included.
