I am creating an app that allows my music students to log their practice minutes, daily. I’m BRAND new to this. I found the date input and I created a text input box for number of minutes practiced. I’d like for the date input to ‘locate’ the correct date in my google sheets and put the practice minutes in the correct column for each student. Help.
