Version number increases automatically everytime the editors are open

Is this happening to others, or only to my apps?

Try open an app…look at the current version number, then close (don’t edit anything) and then open again…recheck the version number.

Noticed that my version number increases 2 steps each time.

Hi @Swoopy ,

Thank you for creating the support ticket and bring this to our notice.

Historically in appsheet, app versions are automatically updated to make sure that app definitions are consistent with underlying schema changes and backend changes does not break the apps.

There was an internal change that we introduced in November and rolled out to all customers early december, which caused the increase in frequency of app version updates for some apps that triggered an edge case (for eg. every editor reload in your case).

We have deployed the mitigation for this issue today. As a result, every editor refresh should not update app versions. The frequency of automatic app version updates should now go back to same as before.

The experience should look like below:
Refresh 1: you might see a version bump taking things to back to normal
Refresh 2 onwards: you should not see a version bump

I would recommend saving any unsaved changes (without opening editor in a new tab) before trying to refresh the editor.

Please let us know either via this thread or support case in case you are still seeing app version to be updated on every editor refresh.
