Database column name change makes table unaccesible

Hi, new here!

I'm currently building an app where there's a table called "track_sessions" whose column "creator" I wanted to change to "creatorID". However, after doing it on the dashboard, I'm getting this error: "Invalid query: Attribute not found in schema: creator". I don't know it this is due to some weird replication lag in how Appwrite handles writes or something, but I'm not able to access the table either through the React Native SDK or through the Web Dashboard itself.

Here's a screenshot of the dasboard.

I'd appreciate help with the matter! Thank you

TL;DR
Database table became inaccessible after changing column name from 'creator' to 'creatorID'. Error: "Invalid query: Attribute not found in schema: creator." Unable to access table via React Native SDK or Web Dashboard. Potential replication lag issue with Appwrite. Solution: Revert column name change or update queries to use new column name 'creatorID'.
