Hi all I’m confused about updates since the pricing change.

Specifically, edit row, and add row.

Can’t find stuff on Glide’s site for exactly defining these.

Any clues?

By any chance are you confused about the usage numbers of a Free plan?

Hi, no, I think I just need an expansion on this:  
“1. **Edits** : When a user in your Glide app edits a row in your data source”.

If data is changed in a glide table, no updates are counted.

If data is changed in an external data source, then updates are counted.

An update consists of any data that is added, updated, or deleted.
