For the last 2 days I have noticed that in several parts of my app, information entered by users in fields such as text entry, checks… is not being recorded / saved. If you refresh the page, you lose the data filled in. I have been using sheets as a database

I am getting similiar issue with Excel not getting updates from gilde fields. I am also using text entry. Is there some logs I can check?

If you have the user-specific or row ownership feature enabled in the columns and tables where the data is supposed to be, you could disable user-specific columns and row ownership to see if that solved the issue.

If the issue stemmed from there, you can then re-enable user-specific columns and row ownership if and where needed.

What type of backend do you use for the app?

I don’t use user-specific or row ownership in my application  
In short, every submission (forms) is working, but every edit field or action that edits a line does not work, as it does not register in the database (google sheets) causing the data entered in the glide to be lost

You are using “Show Edit Screen” or “Set Column Value” actions?

Maybe you could share screenshots or a Loom video.

Can you share more about the actions you tie with the updates like @nathanaelb suggested?

Do you run any scripts on the Sheets side?
