The data on screen looks wrong

Find out whether the bug is in the template, the mapping or the data source.

The data on screen looks wrong

Step upstream through the pipeline to find where a value diverges.

The renderer

  • Open the production's control panel → the layer's preview. Is the wrong value already there?
  • Yes → the issue is in the dataset (next step).
  • No, but live is wrong → reload the renderer. It may be stuck on a stale state.

The dataset

  • Open the dataset page.
  • Find the row the layer is currently showing.
  • Is the value correct in the dataset?
  • Yes → the template binding is wrong. Open the template and check the object's data binding.
  • No → the issue is in the mapping (next step).

The mapping

  • Open the mapping.
  • Look at the preview.
  • Does the value come out wrong there?
  • Yes → the mapping's logic is off (wrong column picked, wrong constant, broken computation).
  • No, the preview is right but the dataset is stale → Refresh the dataset, or wait for the next scheduled refresh.

The data source

  • If the mapping looks right but still produces nonsense, open the data source itself.
  • Is the raw value correct there?
  • No → re-upload (Excel/CSV), re-type (manual), or refresh (plugin).

Three layers of "is it correct here?" catches almost every real bug.
