Question: How to selectively (yet automatically) sync rows based on user input?

Details: I want users to be able to โ€œtestโ€ the app by entering data during training.

So I added a field/question that letโ€™s the user indicate if the data they are entering is โ€œtestโ€ or โ€œactualโ€ data.

Initially, I merely filtered out the โ€œtestโ€ data, but then I have many rows of data that I have to exclude from analysis.

So then I decided to add an action that โ€œDeletesโ€ any โ€œtestโ€ rows after saving.

Now the back-end only contains โ€œgoodโ€ data and no filter is needed.

Howeverโ€ฆ

I get many, many blank rows were the โ€œtestโ€ data was synchronized and then deleted.

So is there a way to make synchronization contingent upon a certain value in my โ€œTestโ€ column?

Or is there a better solution for managing โ€œtestโ€ data?

Sync is not programmable. If you are using Gsheets, you can use Google apps script to write a script that manages your test data.
