I am new to glide. Imported a google sheets table. I have three columns Dc-1, Dc-2, and Dc-3. These are Boolean fields. When I imported into glide, it combined them into one column?? Any ideas why this would happen?

It’s special behaviour that Glide applies to Google Sheet columns that are consecutively numbered. It converts them into a non-computed array column. This is very useful behaviour in some contexts, but if you don’t want it all you need to do is either rename the columns or separate them in the Google Sheet.
