Adding a 6th Column to Your Data Table: Troubleshooting Guide

Jared W. · 2025-10-27 02:34:55.251093+00

when using "Send data table" if you're sending let's say 5 columns to a new table, and then later you want to send a 6th column, can you do that. I select it but I never see it show up on the destination table.

When you first send a row using "Send table data," it creates a new row in the destination table. For subsequent sends, it updates that same row. [1]
To add a 6th column to an existing setup, you'll need to edit your "Send table data" action to include the new column in the mapping. The action should then update the existing rows in the destination table with the new column data.
If the column isn't appearing after you've added it to the mapping, try deleting the "Send table data" column, creating a fresh one, and re-mapping all your data (including the 6th column).

Hi Jared W. !once you’ve used Send data to table, adding new columns later won’t auto-sync. You’ll need to re-run the send with all 6 columns selected or create a new send action,then the extra column will appear in the destination table.
