Hey Gliders, so I came across this huge problem.
So I made this public app (It’s private for now tho)
With a form submission
there are options
Plus details entering columns
but when multiple users enter the form at the same time. It gets messed up for everyone.
Suppose I choose an option
And someone else choose a different option at the same time. So it gets updated in my app as well.
How can I solve this issue.
Please need help! 😭

Two options:
Either use a native glide form, which will not give you this same issue.
Or, since it sounds like you are using a custom form, write the values to user specific columns instead of regular columns.

Here’s a guide on how to make a working custom form.

This is a simple concept app (copyable), that demonstrates the following techniques: Building custom forms for adding and editing list items (as an alternative to the native forms provided by Glide) Preventing duplicate new entries using [User Specific Columns](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/data-editor/user-specific-columns) and [Relations](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/data-editor/computed-columns/relation-column) Enforcing mandatory input items The use of visibility conditions and user specific booleans to control user flow There is nothing particula…
For native forms, as Jeff said, you won’t face this issue, since it already does what custom forms do, without you having to add as many user-specific columns as you need for entries. However, with custom forms, you’re more flexible on validation, as far as I aware.
