Hi Mates,

I cant refresh any excel data nor adding any excel file to my app since yesterday evening.

I haven’t changed my conf on excel, I was even working fine, recording data when I realized that a small change on my data scheme did not applied on the app.

I tried to refresh the data and get the message “Oh sheet! Glide could not reload the sheet.”

I tried to add an other excel file as a new datasource for testing and get the message “Oh sheet! There was a problem linking the data source”

thanks for your help,

Please get support from within Glide while the app is open by selecting the “?” button at the bottom right. That will bring you to a support page, which currently has an “Open Support Ticket” link.
