I have the same issue. I have data in the Glide data editor that is not in my google sheet. I’ve tried deleting the data but I can’t delete all the data. This puts some blank rows on the App. How do you delete a row from the Glide Data editor? Again the row/data never appears in the actual Google sheet. I’ve given the data a past date and am using a filter to “hide” the errors.

@Al_Welk That is either an array column or a relation — many columns in Glide are computed and not stored in your sheet.

David, Thank you for the quick response. But how to I delete the data in the array. The data is no longer in my Google sheet. Yet it’s still in the Glide data editor and appears in the app. I can delete the data in the other cells in that row, but not the array column cell data.

Are you sure you don’t have a row at the bottom of your Google sheet?

Wow! It was after 900+ blank rows!!! Thanks. I looked before but not down 900 rows. I never had more that 35 rows of data. I only looked down about 150.  
You folks are great!

If you are using arrayformulas, that can push new rows to the bottom of the sheet. Because of that, it’s best to delete all empty rows.
