> What I want to clarify is regarding some user specific columns “living” in my Airtable sheets that I use only for logic in Glide, and which I don’t believe sync back to Airtable. Does updating those with a Set Column Action for example count as an update?

Making sure I understand here…

- You have a connected Airtable data source
- You’re extending that Airtable data with user-specific columns in Glide
- The additional columns don’t sync back to Airtable

…and you’re wondering if setting a value on the additional column(s) will consume updates?
