hi

of the importance of structuring your data I am convinced  
thunkable allows to add rows in a worksheet to update them easily but what if I have to create specific worksheets I have to go through Apps script?

There isn’t a way to create or sync to a data source dynamically. You might want to add your thoughts to this feature request I created:

> I would like to be able to sync a Data Viewer List (DVL) to a specific named tab/sheet in a Google Sheet. This is for the purpose of sorting data in the Sheet as described in \[this forum post\](https://community.thunkable.com/t/can-you-only-reference-a-single-sheet-in-google-sheets/1588629).

> It's messy but possible to store sorted values below/above synced values in a single tab/sheet but I'd really rather not do this because it introduces all sorts of other issues when adding new rows or checking the length of a row, etc.
