I’m finding that many of the apps I built before the last Teable update no longer work and I’ve used all my monthly credits trying to fix them.
Anyone else having similar issues?

Hi Paul,
Are you getting any specific errors you could share? Usually, if an app isn’t working, there’s a small pop-up explaining what’s wrong.
I’ve had lots of errors unfortunately 
the charts are double-wrapped with ResponsiveContainer. The shadcn ChartContainer already includes one, so the extra wrappers cause zero-height rendering. Let me fix this.
Both charts AND filters being broken suggests a client-side hydration failure — the HTML renders from the server but JavaScript never hydrates, so nothing is interactive. Let me fix this properly by dynamically importing the chart components with ssr: false and also checking the Dashboard component for hydration issues.
Found it! There’s a BAILOUT_TO_CLIENT_SIDE_RENDERING error in the HTML. Let me see the full error:
Found the core issue! The environment variables don’t match. Let me check what names the code expects vs what’s available:
The environment variable names in lib/teable.ts didn’t match the sandbox. The code expected TEABLE_API_URL and TEABLE_APP_TOKEN, but the platform provides TEABLE_ENDPOINT and TEABLE_TOKEN.
If the error persists after this deploy, it would point to the environment variables (TEABLE_ENDPOINT / TEABLE_TOKEN) not being available in the production runtime — but now the app handles that gracefully instead of crashing.
React error #418 is a hydration mismatch — the server HTML doesn’t match the client’s first render. There are two sources:
The mismatch is still coming from the data tables — they call getDaysAgo() and getDaysUntil() which use new Date(), producing different relative date text (“3 days ago” vs “4 days ago”) between server and client.
I’m sorry about the repeated issues. Let me stop guessing and take the bulletproof approach — render the entire dashboard only on the client so there’s zero server/client mismatch possible.
I need to stop chasing individual elements and make the whole dashboard client-only. The data is fetched on the server (good), but rendering must happen entirely on the client to eliminate any possible mismatch:
Root cause: React hydration error #418 was caused by the server and client rendering different HTML. Multiple culprits — Radix Select dropdowns (empty on server, filled on client), new Date() calls in data tables producing different timestamps, and Recharts components.
The flash is from the skeleton → real content swap. Let me fix this properly — render the real dashboard content on the server but only defer the specific problematic parts (Radix Select filters and date-relative text).
Still not working
Fixed. The charts weren’t appearing because Recharts’ ResponsiveContainer needs to measure actual DOM dimensions — during server rendering there’s no DOM, so it rendered empty SVGs with zero width/height.
Now the chart card frames (titles, legends for the pie chart) render immediately on the server, and the actual chart SVGs appear after hydration when the browser DOM is available. No flash — the cards are there from the start, the chart content just fills in.
Except it still doesn’t show the charts!
Hi @Paul, the doc has a section that maps directly to what you’re running into.
For the charts not showing, this falls under Rendering compatibility. Charts and similar components depend on browser APIs like DOM measurements — they can’t run during server-side rendering, which is why you’re seeing hydration mismatches and blank chart areas. The fix is to tell the AI explicitly to load those components client-side only. This prompt from the doc is a useful starting point:
“This component depends on the browser environment. Load it only on the client to avoid preview rendering errors or hydration mismatches.”
More broadly, a few patterns from the doc worth keeping in mind: when something breaks, ask the AI to diagnose first before touching the code — describe the symptoms and ask it to list likely causes without making changes yet, then pick the most plausible one and proceed. And if several fix attempts in a row haven’t worked, roll back to the last stable version and start fresh rather than patching on top of patches. That’s usually faster.

One more thing — you can earn 1,000 credits every week by sharing your experience through the “Share experience” entry in the bottom-left of the product. We read those posts and they genuinely help us improve.
Why doesn’t your AI read these guides so I don’t have to?
That wasn’t the only issue though Leo and I’ve done the credit thing - and still run out due to having to use them all to fix all of these errors. Can you help me with resetting them or do I need to look for another system. Because at the moment I’m stuck.
I’ve tried emailing and messaging via LinkedIn but not got a reply - which is quite frustrating
