There seems to be no Last updated datetime field in Glide?

What exactly are you looking for? Something like a date time when a row was last updated by the app?

You can add a date column and then when you add or edit data in your app, you can add a date time special value component, which will automatically populate the date column with the current date time. Or you can use actions, such as a set column action or an add row action, to also write a date time special value to that date column. It all depends on your setup and app flow.
