First, make sure sync configuration is set to automatic. More on this below:

In the sync configuration process, there is an option to sync manually or automatically (Workspaces on the free plan will not see an option to sync automatically). Turning on automatic syncing will cause the synced table to update about every 5 minutes. You can still manually sync a table, even if you have turned on Automatic syncing. Choose your preferred update method in the sync configuration window.

Learn how to do this in the first attachment (a few cells to the right of here).

If your sync is already automatic, but you are still experiencing delays, then the solution is to sync manually for now. Here is how to do that. More on this in the second attachment.

  1. Click onto the table (tables with lighting icons next to them) you wish to sync.
  2. Click the dropdown arrow.
  3. Click sync now.
  4. Fixed! Anything that should show up, will show up. If it didn't, then you must re-check the source to ensure you've added what you thought you added.
