Hi everyone!

I just discovered that there is a little but pretty annoying bug in the data returned by the _row: create_ node in n8n: when you create a row with this node, the data returned contains everything, but the name of the first column is `0000` instead of it’s actual name.

Just to check, I executed a row: get immediately after and its output contains the actual column name, so it’s not a problem with the column name. I tested with several column types (text and auto number) on both cloud and self-hosted, and this bug seems to happen everywhere/everytime.

- SeaTable enterprise edition, self-hosted, v 5.1.9 (latest) and SeaTable cloud
- n8n v 1.66.0 (latest)
- n8n-nodes-seatable v 1.6.4 (latest)

Bests,  
Benjamin

Hi again,  
I modified the Category and the title of this thread as I discovered that this is not limited to the n8n integration: both [API Append Row(s)](https://api.seatable.io/reference/appendrows) calls and [Python append\_row](https://developer.seatable.io/scripts/python/objects/rows/#add-rows) functions lead to the same output with `0000` instead of the first column name.

We will check the issue.
