Can anyone confirm this? The updates in glide seem to still be elusive.

I’m scraping data and uploading it in bulk into a Glide Table via API, but each row added counts toward my usage limits.

Is there a way to handle bulk uploads without each row being counted? I’ve considered using Postgres, but app load times are an issue.

Any workarounds or similar experiences?

If you use the V2 API, updates are only counted at 1 per 1000 rows.
