Hello ! I developed an ap which is working very good. For some reason i need to update some row in GSheet using make (integromat) In my table in find the element index and then i calculate the sheet rowNumber and ask make to update one column of this row. All its ok… BUT… i use rowowner and role in my app and when i use find element index for another owner, the result is not good because it only count _n_ rows for this user and not all the rows Example : User 1 : _x_ rows Find element index of the last row is 64 (GSheet number row = 66) User 2 : _n_ rows Find element index if the last row is 4 (GSheet number row =6) So make update the line 6 in GSheet but that row is owned by user 1… I dont know how edit my function to solve that “issue” If someone have an idea… Thank you for reading… and help ! Ps : i hope you understood my english ! Thomas ---

Instead of trying to calculate the row number, add a RowID column to your table, and then send that to Make. Make can then search for the RowID in the Google Sheet and update the correct row. That said, I don’t understand why you can’t just update the row directly from Glide? ---

Thank you Darren ! I have a row id… and i pass it to make with my webhook. But how can i ask make to update that row ? I use make, because i update a column with a url file create with pdfmonkey and store in G Drive. I dont have access to the glide api regarding my starter plan. ---

You need to search for it first. So you’ll have something like the below: ![CleanShot 2023-08-31 at 23.02.34@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/3/b38c79919264795cef89e2ca3e8ea8e933058e56.png) ---
