Hi, the application automatically creates Reverse Reference columns, but at the same time it writes that it will greatly affect the speed of Synchronization. Can I turn off the generation or somehow suppress it?
Even though the columns are “not Show”, during Synchronization the Performance analyzer actually writes to me that these Computed virtual columns take a very long time Duration
So you need the Key-Label function of the REF column but don’t want the Related Rows column?
The work to generate the Related Rows is likely down before the column is made just in the functionality of a REF column so I don’t think this would be possible. One thing that is a possible workaround is making a virtual column that is a REF and making it blank if you don’t need the REF. Very situational but handy.
As the years progress, features are added, functionality improved or expanded, and previous work arounds and “hacks” no longer need to be utilized.
If you’re having a problem with [Related Whatever] columns slowing down your app, switch your ref columns to an Enum (with a base-type REF).

Hey Everyone. We all know the power of references inside an AppSheet app, but there’s also some overhead associated with them; and by that I’m talking about: Reverse-References These are the [Related Whatever] virtual columns that appear when you create a reference connection between two tables. These are great, essential even, allowing you to now only view your data in a clear way, but also customize the functionality around your app as well. But sometimes you don’t need the reverse refer…
