I am having trouble importing a .csv file into an existing glide table with basic and computed columns with the goal to bulk append \>1000 rows of data. The .csv file only consists of the basic entry columns with headers matched up (verified by exporting and copy/pasting the headers from the existing table).

Example of tables:

Existing table:  
Basic Col A, Computer Col B, Basic Col B

.csv file headers:  
Basic Col A, Basic Col B

I can import the .csv as it’s own new table but can’t append the data to the existing table. See screenshot of error it spits out

I don’t know what’s going wrong, and apparently neither does glide. It is indeed frustrating as they call out so any help is appreciated!

If you do 100 rows at a time does it work?
