    Hi,
    If I change an existing field value in a table field, it is never synchronized. New entries in the table, on the other hand, are synchronized correctly. Changes to other form fields are also synchronized.

    My test case:

    1. Create a new form with a text field named ‘textfield’ and a table named ‘table’. Create the table with a text field named ‘tablefield’.
    2. Set up synchronization with iCloud.
    3. Create an entry with textfield=‘A’. Add a table entry with tablefield=’AA’
    4. Sync
    5. Make changes: textfield=‘B’, tablefield=‘BB’
    6. Sync
    7. Close the form and delete it from the device
    8. Download the form from iCloud and open it
    9. The entry has the value textfield = ‘B’ and the table item has the value tablefield = ‘AA’. However, the expected value is tablefield = ‘BB’. ⚡️

    This issue appears to occur regardless of the synchronization method. I’ve tested it with iCloud, WebDAV, and NearbySync. The error occurs on every device, whether it’s a MacBook, iPhone, or iPad. The field type also doesn’t matter. Tested with the default layout. The error is unrelated to AutoSync. However, the changes are present in the backup.

    What could be causing this?

    I’d appreciate any suggestions.

    Thanks,
    Christian

    Hi Christian,

    Have you tried the Cloud+ Sync service to see if that solves the problem?

    Also try setting the Sync Delay to 0 and re-try your test to see if that solves the issue.

    Thanks,

    Brendan
