Hi everyone, I’m working on a table that pulls in user data to generate a weekly summary message using AI. The issue I’m running into is that the “Complete Chat” column keeps updating every 5 seconds — even though no new data is being added and no new rows are being created. Has anyone experienced this before? What could be causing this? Is there a way to **see what’s triggering the update** so I can troubleshoot it? The sync mode is set to Normal. Thank you ---

What data source type are you using? ---

What inputs are you giving the Complete Chat column? Do any of them reference the current time, either directly or indirectly? ---

It does. I use the today’s date to help identify events that are within 7 days. Is there any workaround for this or do I have to redo how I use today’s date? ---

Okay, that most likely explains it, because the current date/time in Glide changes every 10 seconds. What you should do is convert your dates to integers using a Math column. Use the following formula: ```auto Year(Date) * 10^4 + Month(Date) * 10^2 + Day(Date) ``` Do the same using the current date/time as a replacement, and then do a numerical comparison. Because this value will only change once every 24 hours, that should resolve your problem.
