Is it just on my side or the refresh button is missing ?

Yes, I also noticed this. I suspect it’s been deliberately removed.

You can still refresh from inside the Data Editor - bottom left corner.

I don’t know why it would be deliberately removed as from my perspective it was very useful, especially when working with other data sources

Also, since yesterday, I’ve noticed that the data from Google Sheets are refreshing slower … could be based on some work that is done on Glide ?

Yes, I did notice too, what is the exact purpose of the refresh button on the bottom left hand corner?

It’s the same as the one on top was, to refresh the data from the external data sources.

I don’t know for a fact that it was deliberately removed, I was just speculating.  
I’ll try and find out.

Just an update on this since you asked in the experts channel, it was deliberately removed.
