Create date taking 2-3 minutes to propagate from Google Sheet

Report a Bug
1

When I AddRow() to a specific google sheet that includes ‘create date’ - which is set to current date/time from Glide - it appears in Sheets but takes 2-3 minutes to propagate back to Glide.

I look at the gSheet and all is well.
I look at the Glide table and all the gSheet data is there EXCEPT ‘create date’. It takes 2-3 minutes to ‘sync’.

Is this normal behavior? Why is all the other data/fields in Glide correct and timely except for create date? I have other dates that are picked (Event picker) as well as unique IDs which ‘sync’ immediately.

TIA

This is normal–Google Sheet changes only sync to Glide every three minutes.

If you have not changed your Google Sheet for a while, the first change will sync instantly, then subsequent changes come every three minutes in batches. This is why you may see a difference when you conduct a manual test.

Thanks - all other fields synced immediately - only the create date field lagged which seemed weird.

From a design perspective, if this table were in Glide I would assume the data would be immediately available (the create date drives a number of data roll-up) ?

Yes.
