I’m writing to ask about an issue we’ve been experiencing with lookup and formula fields not updating reliably in our app.
We’re using Noloco Tables as our data source. The issue: lookup fields and formula fields that reference lookups often do not recalculate when a new record is created or an existing record is updated via an action or integration. The fields only update after we manually re-open and save the affected record.
This is causing data integrity issues for us, as we rely on these computed fields for case management workflows.
A few specifics:
- It affects both lookup fields and formulas that reference lookup values
- The data in the source/related table is correct — it’s the computed field that isn’t refreshing
Is this a broader platform issue? Interested in understanding:
- Whether this is a known bug with a fix in progress
- Any reliable workaround in the meantime
- Whether there’s a way to force recalculation programmatically
