No, you can’t at this time. > [@Convert existing Sheets-based tab (data, computed columns) to Glide Table](https://community.glideapps.com/t/convert-existing-sheets-based-tab-data-computed-columns-to-glide-table/22183): > > Hi, As mentioned before that I started to see a good side of using Glide Tables instead of using Google Sheets in some cases, like some tables might be updated rapidly in real use. But this hunch always came a bit late; After a while of putting up so many relations & lookups & data templates, then I realized that this sheet might have less problem if I changed to Glide Table. But this means a do-over with all the table setups, not to mention all data links on the interface will be cut-off whic… ---

If you have a OneDrive account you could save your gsheet as an excel file, then create an app using your excel and then copy that app to a Glide Table. It worked some time ago for me ---

Good workaround but lets all vote because I am replacing old apps that are already running on google sheets due to performance issue when data is getting alot after 10K rows I can see the that glide sheets wins the race, plus the API will give us better connections to outside world ---

Hello my friend 👋, i am trying to cut the sync counter from counting against my wish, it almost consumed my 1000 allowed edits just in 3 days. ---

If you are just editing your app, you shouldn’t consider that number as the actual allowed edits. @DJP explained that here and should be fixed someway in the future: > [@new All-New Team Plans Coming Thursday, April 21st](https://community.glideapps.com/t/all-new-team-plans-coming-thursday-april-21st/40912/54): > > Please note that the Updates shown will be slightly higher than what will be counted in the coming months as we do not plan on counting (a) editing in the Builder and (b) Updates used by unpublished projects ---

The article you wrote is really let me breath again. Thank you so much. However, Building the app entirely on Glide tables is, as far as i know is the best solution for speed in terms of data sync. Meanwhile, it will not accept to add from outside the glide page itself, or Glide editor. lets assume the following normal case study. i have a sub contractor table in Glide and it works fine with the data i entered. When i approach a new client (Ownser) they have their own list of subcontractors mainly in Excel or google sheet formats. i might send for them an excel or google sheet template to fill in, but, How could i import it into its dedicated glide table in the Glide editor considering neglecting the manual entry? ---

That’s a good one, i did not notice the link itself sorry for that. but it is really helpful, not only with google sheet, but it tooks a one more step higher to un linked websites with Glide. Thank you again 💐 ---
