Possible duplicate of this thread, answered by @Jeff_Hager here. > [@Could Google log-in automatically create account?](https://community.glideapps.com/t/could-google-log-in-automatically-create-account/8512/10): > > So for clarification you are letting Glide create a new row when a user signs in the first time as well as using a form to write a second row? That’s why I mentioned that you should not be using a form button to finish the profile and should instead be editing the existing row that Glide created. Create a button instead with a link to screen action that takes the user to the profile sheet (filtered by signed in user). There they can finish their profile. When done, you can set visibility to … ---

Hi! It’s me again! I’m having this same issue. If someone signs in but doesn’t complete a profile, then signs in again but completes a profile, it creates two rows, one that is empty except the email address and another that has the completed profile. I saw the explanation above, but I’m not sure what it means. Would you mind helping me out again? Thanks! ---

If I create a button with a link to screen action, I can add components for the user to fill in profile info, but there is no submit button because it is technically not a form??? ---

Entry fields on a detail screen that’s filtered by signed in user are updated to the sheet instantly be for that user. There is nothing to submit as it’s already updated once you enter it. If you wanted, you could just display the details and enable editing instead to allow for updates where a user needs to submit the changes. ---

@Jeff_Hager and @ThinhDinh It’s working now! Thanks! But now I think I broke my app. One of the tabs keep crashing when I click on data. I’ll sleep on it and check again the in AM. If it’s not one thing it’s another! Ugh! ---

You’re not alone Dr. I just experienced the same thing in my test app, the data shows nothing in 1 tab and when I refresh the screen goes white. ---
