I shared a spreadsheet between all of my apple devices. I had the sheet open on my Air but it didn't have all of the data. I opened it on my phone and it was correct. Then I saw "Syncing" and the data I needed disappeared. Any way to get it back?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.6
"Sharing" and "syncing" are two different things. Syncing generally occurs automatically (and in my experience is highly reliable) when you are signed into the same iCloud account on all devices and have settings one your Mac and other devices configured to use iCloud Drive. Then it "just works."
You could try going to iCloud.com and seeing if your document in Numbers for iCloud there has all your data (from your description, though, probably it is gone. If you can't find it in File > Revert on your Mac then it is time to start up Time Machine (or whatever backup system you are using) and recover from there.
If you are not using a backup system, then now is the time to start!

I don't do any sharing so I could be way off base here but you may be able to restore to the previous version (the one with the data) using File->Revert to on a Mac, or whatever the equivalent is on an iOS device (if there is an equivalent operation). Kinda bothersome that it did that in the first place, though.
Thanks everyone. File revert fixed the problem.
