@Jeff_Hager Google sheets in Free Apps need an “edit” from Glide to reload. Is there a way to create an edit from Glide without user action?

Not that I’m aware of. Something needs to happen with a user action to send the request and update a value in the database. Depending on when you want the update to happen, you could create a custom action that updates a column value to initiate the update, followed by a webview or View Details action., But as far as automatically updating, that would require Pro for that to happen.

Thank you, I installed a Switch that, by an onChange trigger, ticks On/Off in the Sheet.
