linked sheet update time

Hello,

I'm new to linking data across multiple sheets and am wondering how long it takes the data to update in the destination sheet. I expected it to work with the same speed that automations work to move or copy rows but that doesn't seem to be the case. Any information or best practices would be helpful.

Thank you,

Khari

    Hi @Khari Shiver

    You are correct, cell links and cross-sheet formulas should update in a similar rate to when an automation runs, perhaps taking up to two minutes but generally faster than that. If you are seeing a delay more than 10 minutes I would recommend reaching out to Support with screen captures and the sheet URLs.

    Cheers,
