Hello!  
I’m currently making an app on Thunkable and i’ve run into a problem. I’m trying to make a button where when i click it, the button’s text is updated to a value fetched from Google Sheets and then returns back to its original value. Here’s a screenshot of the code:

This works for the first time, but after that if I update the value on Google Sheets, it stays constant to the old value. (Example: if the value is 12, it prints 12, but if i change the value from the sheets file to 11, it still prints 12 unless i restart the app).  
Any help is appreciated!
