> 🙋‍♂️ **Vlas** _asked_

## Hello! I’ve moved 40 000 records from the Airtable into the PostgreSQL. Then I synchronised data in Nocodb to make the table visible. But it doesn’t show my records in the table. I can see it in PostgreSQL, but not in Nocodb. What can be the reason of this issue?

#### I wonder whether you have synced data to NC\_DB database ?

#### The database NC\_DB points to and the database to which you have synced data from airtable can’t be same.

#### o1lab@discord yes, I synced data with Nocodb. Other tables from the same database with lower amount of rows works good. But the table with 40 000 rows doesn’t show its rows.

#### Thanks you for taking through the details. Looks like there is a column with name “done?” in it which might be causing the problem. May be it happened while you were editing the column names.

#### 

#### Either ways, if you can think of the setup I mentioned earlier where you sync the data to a new database in postgres - it might be good way to do things.

#### o1lab@discord I’ve tried to connect table as you ordered. It doesn’t work too. I will try to copy table structure with no data and put data with .csv-upload function

#### o1lab@discord I know, but UI Bakery’s tool doesn’t keep relations too. It just save them like a text with related record’s ID. I will try to restore connections after that with n8n. As I saw, Nocodb’s API has m2m-function, where I can set first table’s ID and id of the second table. I will try to use this way

#### OMG, it works! I used PGadmin and change column’s names: delete from them symbols “+” and “?”. After that nocodb shows all rows.

#### It happened because we called some fields in the Airtable like “+7 days” and “Done?”. Airtable doesn’t has strong rules for the fields naming.

#### It seems that I have the same problem as you. Following a GraphQL query, I have my “Contact” table empty, while in the PostgreSQL database the data is present.

#### I installed NocoDB on Heroku in 1click. Can you help me to solve this problem? Thank you very much
