Not gonna panic, but I just checked out the data editor to see if the Airtable data starting syncing again and noticed that all of my tables are no longer Airtable sourced tables but instead Glide tables:
This happened with one of our client’s Excel tables months ago, the file was seemingly disconnected from Glide altogether and tables were automatically turned into Glide Tables. We have to reconnect everything and it was not a nice experience.
Sorry for this issue—the team is waking up soon to begin investigating. We shipped a fix yesterday to improve syncing large bases and this may be causing the issue.
Please add your team and app IDs to your post if you’re experiencing this issue so we can debug more quickly.
All Airtable and Excel tables are represented as synced Glide Tables underneath. Ideally they can be reconnected.
I now have 2 new glide tables for every excel table I had, the excel tables are back but wiped of all glide functionality, and one set of the glide tables are empty and the other set has the data but no functionality. The problem now is that the elements in the layout are linked to the empty glide tables so when I change a source table the whole design layout gets wiped. I am lost for words.
My app has been destroyed by this error, the tables are duplicated, and many are empty and without functionality. I want to know if you are able to fix this? The wrong tables are now connected to the elements in my app and so nothing works and when I change the source tables the layouts get wiped. It took me months to build this app with all its functionality
This is shocking what has happened. I would like an answer today.
@Shaman you will need to follow up on your support thread for specific details about your app. This issue did not “corrupt” any apps so something else might be happening.
Yes, we are able to fix it. Please do not edit your Excel columns/tables until we can reconnect it.
