Saw these in the Glide data editor for the first time today. Both EXTREMELY helpful:
1. Probably not new, but it’s the first time I had to use it: Rollup > Count True
Use Case: Getting count if true to divide by total to establish a % complete.
2. Definitely new: Getting User Profile Data in the Template Column!
Use Case: Too many to count! Bring in User Profile Data into ANY tab!!!
This is now the best way to achieve all that has been mentioned in this post:
More testimony about how brilliant this trick is:
Only need to create “is signed in user” rel/lookup once in user sheet with keyword and then can relate to that keyword in each tab
able to create custom “headers” on each tab.
800+ rows & 20+ relation/lookup columns now boiled down to just 10 columns and 0 (new) rows…zero spreadsheet formulas = instant calculations.

Probably exactly what I need right now, I was looking for a solution to use profile from data.
But i don’t see the User Profile
Do i need to create a new column?
Or its not fully available ?
Create a template column…should be in there!
Dont see it…
And im trying the the Name template thing haha. I suppose it should replace it ,correct?
Yes! Replace it with data from the User Profile tab! I just created a video. I’ll add it to this thread momentarily!

Unrelated, but how did you get the XP to the left and currency to the right? Is it some html magic?
Yes…I hate that I had to use it but I couldn’t find any other way to achieve what i wanted. I’m hoping that one day Glide will come out with an “Advanced Table” component that will let me put two components side by side.

Can it not be done with the standard one because the left side is the name of the header?
Nope. These are two different values from two different columns.
