hello friends, the steps is as follow:  
when a user signs in im showing him a button to “build his profile” but when he goes and fills it out it updates the fields in the data table automatically so the “send” button doesn’t work and the profile updates on its on (disturbing visibility settings and the “on click” action after filling the form

(see the “faded” button on the bottom of the form)

Couple of things.

One is that you are using a Form Container which is meant for adding rows. You should already have a user row, so I assume that your intention is not to add another row. You should be editing the existing row with an Edit Form instead.

Second, is that you are attempting to fill values in the user profile. The user already has a user profile row, but the form container is for adding new rows. What you have done shouldn’t have been allowed in the first place. Oddly, it’s allowing you select columns from the user profile and change those values in real time even though you are within a form.

If you want to Edit a users existing user row, then use an Edit Form instead. If you do want to add a new row to the user table, then your form should be sourced to the user _table_, and you entry components should not be writing to the user _profile_.

I must stress that there is a difference between the user table and the user profile. A user table contains all users. A user profile is only the one specific row for the signed in user.
