Hey @Mae

I only need the project name, which is either visible on your project list, or by sharing with me the URL of your project.

You can also share with me the email you used to sign-up as a DM so I can check your project configuration on my end.

Fell free to check it here: [https://app.forestadmin.com/DataC/Development/Operations/data/personalInfo/index](https://app.forestadmin.com/DataC/Development/Operations/data/personalInfo/index)

In fact, we have 3 tables on our server and the dashboard show only 2 of them. The table “syntetic data” is not there and i don’t know why.

Yesterday i was trying to deploy it on heroku and i doesn’t work. Then there was something buging on the project. I deleted those projects and build this new one. It still have the same problem. The table doesn’t appear on my dashboard.

When you speak about Dashboard, is that related to the table view? (Data tabs)

I can see that you indeed do have only 2 collections in your `.forestadmin-schema.json`.

Maybe you could try the following `npx forest schema:update`, or `npm install -g forest-cli@latest` then `forest schema:update`?

Keep in mind that you ForestAdmin will only display models that are defined in your `models/` folder.

Let me know if that helps.

Did you see my previous message? Do you have a “syntetic” model in your models folder?

> Problem 2: I’m trying to deploy the dashboard using Heroku and it doesn’t work. I don’t know how to config the env file and the step on the doc isn’t clear for met.

This can be done in the settings of your heroku app (In the environment variables section)

Let me know if that helps 🙏

I did it, please do not share any env secret publicly to anyone unless someone from Forest Admin asked you to do it. Same with any other secret configuration you might have 🙂

the App is running, thanks but still cannot see the table “synthetic data” that you can see from this image. I run the cmd _ **forest schema:update** _ and this appear

And at the same way, i don’t know what kind of view should appear when the app is deployed on heroku. I still have the same view even if i make some chart on the workspace and dashboard option. Have a look on it here:

Let’s tackle your first problem:

Does `synthetic-data-hzh` appear in your `.forestadmin-schema.json`? If not, did you try to restart your development server?  
Could you also share with me here the file content of `models/synthetic-data-hzh.js`?
