When your HTTP API column shows "This cell is waiting for its inputs, " there are a few ways to resolve this: 1. Click "re-run this cell" to make it work immediately. 2. Try toggling the auto-update off and on again, then accept the run prompt to update all rows. 3. Check if there are any conditional run criteria that might be preventing execution. 4. Perform a hard refresh (Windows: Ctrl+Shift+R, Mac: Cmd+Shift+R) if cells are stuck in queued status. Could you share your JSON body configuration so I can help troubleshoot any potential formatting issues?

Hey, When you see “This cell is waiting for its inputs,” it usually means some upstream cells didn’t trigger correctly, even if the inputs look filled. This can happen when multiple rows are run at the same time. For now, the best fix is to re-run the downstream cells manually. You can also try toggling auto-update off and on to update all the downstream cells or double-clicking into the affected row and updating it. Totally understand this is frustrating—we’re working on improving it. Let me know if you need help with the workaround.
