Hello, I am creating some columns for testing and learning some functions, my problem is that for some, the “delete” column option does not appear, why so? Thanks and happy new year!

It looks like that column was created in your Gsheets. If so, to delete it, you need to delete it from the Gsheets. ---

To add…this applies to all basic columns when you are adding them to a google sheet. Computed columns remain within glide only. If you were to add basic columns to a glide table, then you would be able to delete them from within the glide data editor. I think the issue here is that glide can add basic columns to a google sheet, but it’s unable to delete basic columns from a google sheet.
