I have a table linked to the user login, I also have a details page with the data of each user and in it I have a button to edit the user’s data, it is giving an error when trying to edit the user’s registered email.

Glide does not allow you to edit a users email address via the UI, this is not a bug.  
If you need to edit a users email address, you must do it via the Data Editor.

Complementing what @Darren_Murphy said, if your app has the Login option and you try to edit the email, the user would automatically log off because it would no longer show the email he is logged in with.

I see, it’s still a very necessary function in systems. But thanks for the guidance.

But is email editing necessary in your app?
