Hi, I’m having an issue with an edit screen in my Glide app. Users enter data and submit it, but the changes are not saved at all — not in the app and not in the database. However, if I perform the same update manually via the console, it works as expected. Here’s what’s happening: The edit screen opens correctly The user submits changes No errors are shown The data is not updated in the source (even after waiting) But: When I run the same update manually via the Glide developer console, it updates immediately Any idea what could be preventing the update from the edit screen? Could it be a bug or something misconfigured? Thanks in advance! ---

Are you trying to change the users role by chance? If so it reverts automatically. > **[Why Do My Roles in My App Disappear? | Glide Help Center](https://help.glideapps.com/en/articles/9981838-why-do-my-roles-in-my-app-disappear)** ---

Hi! Thanks for the suggestion, but no — the change is happening in a different table, not in the **Users** table. So it shouldn’t be affected by the automatic reversion of user roles. Still trying to figure out what’s blocking the update. Any other ideas? ---

Do you have any actions after the user submits the edit form? ---

Might be an issue with Glide. Some experts are reporting the same thing. ---

We are seeing this too. Initial insert is fine, but any changes made seem to be lost after a bit. Changing a status on a job, or assigning a job to driver, are being lost after a short period of a few mins. ---
