Apply pending batches and updates from Monitor
The Pending section of Monitor's Needs Attention tab lists new data waiting to be applied, draft pipeline changes, and files that need your input. Click Monitor at the bottom of the left sidebar, then Needs Attention. Each item has a button that applies it or takes you to it.
Apply a pending batch
Batch pending means new data has arrived at a destination and is waiting to be applied. The row shows "Batch pending", the source View name, "New batch received 5 minutes ago", the row count and the destination or operation (for example Join: Orders 2026 or Source: Sales).
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| View Batch | Previews the incoming data before you commit it (when the destination is a dataset) |
| Update | Applies the batch now. A spinner shows while it runs, and the row disappears when done |
| Copy link to clipboard | For Live Link destinations only: copies the live link URL to share |
A Batch pending item appears when a Join or Lookup source View receives new data, a connector export or Publish-as-Database destination receives new data, a cross-project dependency's source updates, or a Live Link's external source changes. When the source link has Auto-sync off, the batch is held: the row reads "new batch received, auto-sync off" and shows Preview and Process instead. Items clear when the destination is updated or Auto-sync is turned back on.
Fix pending items that need your input
Other pending items that need your input appear in the same section: Ambiguous date format, Password required (a password-protected file), Schema mismatch, Sheet selection required and Unstructured rows. Each has a button such as Select sheets, Fix batch settings or Fix settings that takes you to the item.
Run a pending update
Update pending means a destination that isn't a dataset (for example an export) has new source data. The row shows the View name, row count and export type (for example 66,943 rows · Export: MySQL). Click Update to run it now. The row can also show Copy link to clipboard for a Live Link. After a successful update, a toast reads "Update data".
Apply pending pipeline changes
Pipeline changes pending means a pipeline has draft changes not yet applied. The row shows the dataset, View name and task count (for example 6 tasks ready to run). Pipelines with errors come first. Click Go to View to review or apply the changes.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
