I have encountered a problem with the application duplication. It says that there is a large amount of data in Google Sheets. Although the tables are not associated with the application  
Error text: An error occurred while duplicating your app  
Duplicating an app can fail when it uses a large or complex Google Sheet. Please delete all rows and columns that your app is not using or where there is no data. Glide will append rows as needed, so you can remove all empty rows below the existing data on all of your sheets. After completing these steps, try duplicating your app again.

I’ll attach some previous community posts related to your query - you might find your solution

> Try the following steps. It might work. Duplicate your Google Spreadsheet first. Open your app, go to settings, go to data sources, and replace your current spreadsheet with newly duplicated spreadsheet. Once the spreadsheet has been changed, try duplicating the app again. This works for me most of the times.

If it doesn’t work - experts will be here soon 🙂

hmmm okay, so you use glidetables then can you follow with what Hassan mentioned but only with situations where glide tables fit?

This just happened to me too, for the very first time. And like OP, I don’t use any Google Sheet at all. All of my data is stored in Glide tables, could this be a bug?

Same for me. Happened today. Only Glide Tables used. I have a feeling this and a lot of other issues currently being reported might all be related.

There seem to be ongoing errors within glide

that could be a cause.  
I also just tried it and got the same issue.  
I’ve created a report you can check
