Unable to work without internet connection - RDM removed all entries!

Hey team,

this is not acceptable! I need to configure network devices in a new network. I am at the point that I lost internet connection and this is planned, but my switches and routers were already configured in RDM and half-configured before. I had to change the network topology and this is normal that I am losing connectivity. What's not normal is RDM removing the entries instead of showing them as they were before going offline! Now they're gone. How am I supposed to complete my work when faced surprises like this? Do I need to abandon using online paid Hub and devise a method of synchronizing SQLite data sources between team members over a network share on-premises or what? Now I have to invent a workaround - go outside where I can maybe connect using cellular network, fortunately this time I do have a local sim, but it's not always the case.

And of course RDM re-authenticates every time I'm going online. Why it cannot store the access token/refresh token and do the magic in the background?!?

Sorry but it's intense day for me and the RDM prevents me from timely completing my job.

You need to enable a cache mode on the data soruce, as you are not connected your entires are not showing when offline.

I'm sorry but cache setting is nowhere to be found. Also if it's there - shouldn't it be enabled by default?
