To start, I’ve read a couple of the similar topics and gone through troubleshooting to try and solve this.
Pretty simple issue; the edits are not going through when made through the app.
flow: from users tab, select user, click edit, change data, click submit.
Data successfully changes within the app for the moment, but will not affect the data table as shown in the builder. Also, when the app updates, for example reloading, the change is reversed.
The “add user” function works perfectly from the app.
The users table I am using is the table automatically created when starting the app.
I’ve already checked that none of the columns in the table are user specific.
I don’t have any form container in the edit form screen as far as I can tell.
Is it only the Role column that is affected?
Glide does not allow you to change user roles via the front end.

No I was trying to edit the email column when I discovered the issue.
Duly Noted though, because sometimes I was trying to edit the role at the same time. I just tried to edit the email without also editing the role, and the problem persists.
Actually, the email column is the same. Glide won’t allow editing of that either.
If you need to edit either of those two columns, then it must be done via the back end. This means:
- do it directly in the Data Editor
- use a server side workflow
- use the API
Here is an example of how it can be done using the API via the Make integration:

And here is an example using a server side workflow:
