Google Sheets - Tab name changed - How to redirect Table already defined under old name?

[FTong]

I renamed the Tabs of a Google sheet to make the new name more compatible with the content.

However, the AppSheet tables now can not access the data in the tabs. Is there an easy way to redirect the tables to the tabs with the new names. ?

Steve,

Thank you for your prompt/timely reply !!!

Steve,

This is great…!!!

Just realized how good of a job you have done putting Appsheet together…

Appsheet keeps the table name the same and only changes the reference to the data source.

If the column layout is the same, changing data sources is seamless… (Am I correct? - hope so).

AppSheet will retain the column layout and configuration even if you change which worksheet the table uses. If the column structure of the worksheet changes, you should regenerate the app table’s columns.

Regenerating your columns is a necessary step in making sure changes in your spreadsheet are reflected in your app's structure.

**** Important: Additional Note ****

Remember to refresh the Appsheet Editor browser tab after changing the name of the tabs .

Otherwise the change will not be reflected in the Appsheet Editor.

Good luck.
