Is it possible for me to add a google sheet that is offline as part of my data source into my project?

Are you wanting the app to pull data when the Google Sheet is updated? If so, you could use the Is Online block to check and only update/pull data when the device is connected.

I’ve tried to add either one of the 2 clouds that I’ve created into the image above but I can’t add any of them inside, what can I do to solve this issue?

Or is it because I have too many data sources that’s why it doesn’t show me the options of adding the data sources named CLOUD TESTING(Offline) and CLOUD TESTING?

No, I don’t think so. I have about 100 data sources listed.

Are you using a personal Gmail account or a Google Workspace (for business) account?

What happens when you click “Create New”? Can you post a screenshot of that next screen?

I’m currently using a personal gmail account, this is what I see when I click on “Create New”
