ok thanks Darren - to clarify, I didn’t mean GS. My bad explanation. I meant the green coloured tables in Glide that are linked to GS. I’m attempting to replace these with the black coloured Glide tables, so I can stop using GS and hence reduce synching etc. So yes, I can export this data directly into a CSV without going to GS. Use case: I have Classic App “A” in live, receiving daily updates to the data, which is synched GS. I want to rewrite the App as a new App, and at the same time migrate to Glide tables. So I’m developing the new app, based on a snapshot of data. Once the new app development is complete, the Classic app will be taken offline, the new app made live, and the data used by the new app will need to be updated to reflect the latest data in the Classic app at the point it was decommissioned. When I delete the data in the new app (by deleting all rows) in preparation for loading in the CSV file containing the up to date data, the import fails. No error message, just nothing happens. I found this post also which I believe is a similar thing. > [@Glide Tables Export and Import Doesn't Work](https://community.glideapps.com/t/glide-tables-export-and-import-doesnt-work/65443): > > Hello, I’m trying to export and import data from one version of the app to another. Describe the bug: I have ‘Row ID’ in both. I have encountered two problems while trying to export and import data: If the ‘Row ID’ name is “:lock: Row ID” in both apps, then while importing the data just nothing happens, the table stays empty. If I change the ‘Row ID’ name to “User ID” in both apps, then while importing the data, the ‘Row ID’ for every row is different from the original app and csv file.… --- _[View the full topic](https://community.glideapps.com/t/import-data-from-gs-into-glide-help/67769)._
