Adding Row ID as Role From another Table?

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

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!

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.

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 :wink:

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 :wink:

Not a bad idea.
I’ve gotten into the habit of prefixing my Big Table names with BT, which essentially achieves that :slight_smile:

hehe… you could also do something like this:
