  • I followed the troubleshooting guide and it did not address my issue
  • I've included a link to a Github Gist with the full contents of my troubleshooting.org buffer
  • Each section below is filled in and includes sufficient detail to reproduce the issue

Expected Behavior

When calling an async block from a table formula with org-sbe, it should execute asynchronously and eventually populate the table cell(s) with the results.

Actual Behavior

It immediately populates the cell(s) with #ERROR

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a named async source block, let's call it gimme_that
  2. Create a table
  3. Add a formula to the table which calls the source block using org-sbe, such as $1='(org-sbe "gimme_that")
  4. Refresh the table formulas

Also, see the requested gist below.
