Hello everyone. I have 2 issues that I need your help with:
My Glide app currently has 2 sales employees using it. However, when both individuals use the app simultaneously to calculate product costs, conflicts arise, where one person’s actions overwrite the other’s before any results are obtained. How can this situation be addressed?
Can multiple users be granted different permissions within my Glide app? For example, can some users input data while others can only view the data without being able to make any changes, even within each tab?
Tks all
Depending on the app here are the key concepts for each issue:
User Specific Columns
This feature allows your app to store data for a specific user within a shared table. Probably the feature you need in this example.
From the Glide intro: “User-specific columns allow cells to hold unique data for each user. This means each user can experience their own data for a particular part of your app.”
Row owners
Manages access to the underlying rows based on a User’s ‘role’/permission
From Glide’s into: " If your app has data that some, but not all, users should access, then you should use Row Owners to protect that data."
From a simple example through images, it shows that if two people dine at different locations and use the app to pay, it will lead to conflicting data input. Could you guide me in detail on how to create special columns for each user to address this issue?
Tks you
wow i miss this interface !!
you need to use user specific columns for example for Number of people. when you create the column in the data editor… (tick the user specific checkbox). it means the value is only for that user.
