Term store or managed metadata column empty
Terms require publication and the right language. Without publishing, you do not see them in columns.
Try this first
- 1Open the term store in admin and confirm terms are published
- 2Check the working language of the term set and site
- 3Wait a few minutes after publishing for visibility
- 4Try typing a new line in the column field
