I noticed differences in the revision history of a record when i open it in an interface vs. when i open it on a table. How? Why?

in interface, last edit 4w ago (but last edited date shows 1 day ago...):

in table the edits from 1 day ago show up. they relate to a linked record...:

Interfaces will only show you the fields that are viewable on that particular interface screen.

Interfaces are considered a security layer, so Airtable won’t reveal all the underlying data in the table unless you make that data visible onscreen (or you go back into the data layer to view it there).

Hope this helps!
