Row limits - The dark side of Glide :)

If you use any Helper Tables to interact with the Big Table, make the Helper Tables Big Tables as well - even if they have only a single row. This is because some of the new computed column support only works from Big Table → Big Table, and not from Regular Table → Big Table

Thanks for this tidbit - I wouldn’t have thought to do that. Is there an up-to-date reference list anywhere columns that are supported, including those enabled through the “More Computed Columns with Big Tables” setting? Or do you just do trial and error and will there always be a warning like this if the computed column isn’t supported?

Thanks also for your post on Migrating. I had started the process and your suggestions on the order of operations are very helpful.

Big Tables | Glide Docs

Here’s a documented list of limitations.

I was assuming that was the list without the preview feature checked. I also keep hearing that new columns are being added all the time, so I was looking for some specifics on what is added by the preview feature being checked.

Do we have any specific information about that @Darren_Murphy ? Worth adding those to the doc.

mmm, thats a good point. At the moment I think it’s a bit of a mix. Let me follow up on this.

Any word on this @Darren_Murphy ?
