Hi, I’m facing the following issue. When I add a new writer/user, it takes a long time for the name to appear in the primary field of Airtable in the linked records we’re creating. As you can see in the [Loom video](https://www.loom.com/share/6ef0ce532a5b41e39202013526fbc63e?sid=bcbf2e40-5980-43a7-8740-970ace0f8691), it takes more than 40 seconds, and in the meantime, the code is displayed, which makes the UI look a bit unpolished.

What sort of field is the primary field @Sebastian ? Some formula I suppose?

If you could share the setup there that would really help

If you have any recommendation to reduce the time it would be awesome

Is there a way we can test this to see the behavior in your app?  
That formula looks like it should be fine to me
