Darren, you’re absolutely right… there is something simple I’m missing… I’m sure of it. 🙂 I’d be happy to give you access. Can you DM me your email? Andrew ---

Darren found the issue in two seconds. (Thanks Darren!) I created a Users table as a BigTable, which isn’t supported. Meaning, a user table cannot be a BigTable. I created a new User table as a normal Glide Table and it works as expected. Whew. Thank you! - Andrew ---

That one was a bit tricky. Normally you can spot a Big Table by the distinctive icon next to the table name. But in this case that was obliterated by the blue icon that indicates it’s the Users table. ![CleanShot 2023-06-25 at 22.33.11@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/6/364474c38336ad26e11c4ed423075c5553b688ea.png) But the second thing you can use to identify a Big Table is the row count next to the table name. It took me an extra second to spot that 😉 Anyway, I’d say this is a bug in the sense that Glide should not have let you select that table in the first place. I’ve reported that. ---

Hey Andrew glad you got it sorted and thanks for sharing what you found! Thank you Darren and to all the experts always willing to lend a hand. @Darren_Murphy it would also be nice if there was some type of Big Table designation somewhere above headers in editor 😉 ---

Not a bad idea. I’ve gotten into the habit of prefixing my Big Table names with BT, which essentially achieves that 🙂 ![CleanShot 2023-06-25 at 22.44.36@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/7/9/7938d14bf9e7402d2f0c51fb40ee6d08bdf290f2.png) hehe… you could also do something like this: ![CleanShot 2023-06-25 at 22.47.46@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/d/6d3f5887cb2f7d41258405b3dd645122f9fdf9ca.png) 😃 ---
