- I am on the legacy starter plan
- My app does not interact with external data sources (Glide Tables only)
- My app does not use workflows
- My app does not use integrations
- My app does not use Glide’s API
I recently had to modify parts of my app (adding, editing, deleting information in the Tables) so I copied it, performed the CRUD’ing, then published it on July 1 while unpublishing the previous version. Since then, it has racked up 2,211 (and counting) updates out of 2,500 and this has never happened before:
During the previous billing period, I had 29 updates:
Can someone please tell me where I can look to figure out what is eating them up so quickly?
Thank you!
CRUD for Glide Tables weren’t always free in older plans…
Pretty sure that’s normal for Legacy Starter, unless you are thinking there wasn’t that many CRUD updates.
No, I’m aware of the update quota - the issue is how and why they are accruing so rapidly. I got an email two days ago (07/11) that 1,875 updates had occurred and now I’m +350 with no idea why. Something changed in the last 13 days, something that my users are editing or updating, that is causing the Updates
Did you maybe add a set column action or something similar on a collection or other component that a user may be clicking often? Or maybe a tab component that sets a value in the table?
I’ve had set column actions setup for years and have never accrued this many updates halfway through a billing cycle. And I am not using any tab components, only tab containers. I didn’t do any updating to my app during this billing cycle either, everything was done last month… I’m wondering if this is Glide’s way of (not so) gently pushing me off of a Legacy plan 
Other than suspecting some misplaced actions in your app or a rogue user, I don’t know what to tell you.
I also have a Legacy Starter plan, but it’s largely unused at this point. Up until yesterday, I had zero updates accrued for my billing cycle (Jun 18th - Jul 18th). I did a quick test yesterday in regards to your issue. In that test, I made 4 quick CRUD updates in one of my apps. My usage currently shows exactly 4 edits. From my viewpoint I’m not seeing any usage over and above what I would expect.
@Jeff_Hager - thank you for the help!
Got in touch with Glide Support and it turns out that the app is doing exactly what it’s supposed to, we just had a massive spike in user activity over the last two weeks.
