You are developing an app, and for some reason, you create virtual columns. You progress with the design, make changes to actions, bots, and many other elements. At some point, you forget to delete the virtual columns. Over time, this can impact the app's performance.
A practical method Iโve found to purge the app of unused virtual columns is to rename them one by one, save the changes, and observe what happens. If the name change doesnโt affect the appโs logic, itโs likely that the virtual column is not being used. In that case, I delete it. Otherwise, I restore its original name, and thatโs it.
This approach helps to eliminate all unnecessary virtual columns without deleting them outright from the start.
I hope this tip is helpful to you!
Good idea!
