Downloaded Android app not loading list from Google Sheet (works in Live Test)

Questions about Thunkable Issues / Bugs
1

In the app that I have designed, I am using Google Sheets as a data source and a Simple Grid List on Screen 1.

  • In Thunkable Live, Screen 1 loads the list correctly from the sheet.

  • In the installed APK, the rest of the app works but the Simple Grid List is blank.

  • I am using the block when Screen1 Opens to:

    • Set app variable itemList to “list of values in column item name” from mysheet.

    • Set the Simple Grid/List Text Items to app variable itemList

    • I am attaching the screenshots for reference

Can anyone see what I am doing wrong with loading from Google Sheets into a Simple Grid List in the installed app? It works in Live Test but not in the APK.

Hi @shalu15kc9yuvz , welcome to Thunkable! :tada:

Could you please add a “wait” block before the se simple list block?

Also, Google has some usage limits on Google Sheets API, so it is possible that if you are making many requests in a short time period, they will reject them.

You can find more information here: https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/limits
