My data in airtable is alphabetized, but for some reason that isn’t pulling over into Glide. Shouldn’t the data in Glide match the order that it is in in my AirTable base? Or how can I alphabetize it within Glide? For this specific example, it’s a list of vendors, so I want them to be alphabetized by vendor name.

The Airtable API seems to retrieve data in a random order. However, you can can change the sorting on your inline list.
