Issues with Tables: Unable to Create Columns or Save Changes

Marco Strohm Katigbak · 2025-07-29 07:21:53.554483+00

Anybody experiencing tables that aren’t working, can’t create columns, changes to cells aren’t saving. Basically can’t do anything. It happened yesterday and I thought it was an isolated issue (probably due to network), but I’m experiencing the same problem today.

This sounds like a performance issue. Try a hard refresh first: Windows: Ctrl + Shift + R Mac: Cmd + Shift + R Performance issues often occur with larger tables or when multiple actions run simultaneously, causing latency where cell data takes longer to load. If you're experiencing empty rows or display issues, try clearing your cache and refreshing your screen. For columns stuck in "queued" status, create a new column by duplicating the problematic one and run it on affected rows. If the "write to table" function isn't working, try using Force Run in table settings.

For persistent column creation and saving issues, try these additional steps: For stuck columns: ** Delete the problematic column and create a fresh one ** If columns show "queued" status, duplicate the column and run it on affected rows For "write to table" issues: ** Use Force Run in table settings (may take time depending on table size) ** Ensure auto-dedup is activated in the target table For display/saving problems: ** Clear cache and refresh - empty rows or display issues are often short-term front-end performance problems ** Larger tables can experience loading delays If these steps don't resolve the persistent issues, request human assistance by clicking "Talk to a person" for further investigation.

For persistent table issues after standard troubleshooting, try these additional steps: For column creation problems: ** Delete problematic columns completely and create fresh ones ** If columns show "queued" status, duplicate the column and run it on affected rows For saving/performance issues: ** Clear browser cache and refresh to resolve persistent error messages ** Performance issues often occur with larger tables when multiple actions run simultaneously For write to table functions: ** Use Force Run in table settings (may take time depending on table size) ** Ensure auto-dedup is activated in the target table If these steps don't resolve your critical build issues, request human assistance by clicking "Talk to a person" for immediate investigation.

Clay Support – Any update on how long this slowdown is expected to last? It’s starting to affect some critical work on our end.

Are you experiencing these issues across all tables in your workspace, or is it limited to specific larger tables?

Yeah, it's been stuck like this forever. Some people from Clay need to get back to work right now...

Hey Marco Strohm Katigbak Refresh Clay in Incognito Mode (Chrome) Clear browser cache & cookies Check Clay's status page https://status.clay.run If still broken Duplicate the table and try editing the copy Or create a new table and import old data Still not working?
