im having same trouble here. Local DB & Airtable seem so fine but only Google Spreadsheet doesnt work.
i was selected for beta tester a few days ago. Google sheets didnt work. so i wait. but still same. please help
This is exciting but Iām still finding the data source interface to be so buggy. I have like 20 data sources from the beta testing and although thereās a way to create new sources, there is no way to remove sources. There should be.
And when I create a new source, it loops me through the dialog boxes multiple times so itās hard to tell when Iāve completed any of the steps. Iāll post a video when I get a chance.
Iām trying to add Google Sheets and reference data from them.

I still canāt use Google Sheets with the Data Viewer. I can get the desired sheet into the Data Source field, but from there, the binding fields tell me to select a data source. I try again and again, and I get the same results. Iāve deleted the data sources from the app in progress and put them back in with no different result. I canāt remove the data sources from the system because the data sources tab on my projects page gives me a blank browser screen. NEED HELP please!
what kind of google account are you using for that? a school or work account? or a free account?

I didnāt realize there were different kinds of accounts. I suppose itās a free account: the same account I use to sign in to Thunkable.
I have had issues using my school account in the past. I use my work account though with no problem.
Have you performed a hard refresh recently?

I cleared the cache, installed a newer version of Chrome, shut down Chrome and restarted my computer. I still get the same thing:
The Binding fields are the same. The My Data Sources tab on the Projects page still gives me a white screen. I get the same results in Chrome and Edge browsers.
I have reported this on github here. please add any relevant details or a relevant project link

Hey @saramdl.gaunde021 - itās a little difficult to tell from the context of your message.
Are you having an issue with Google Docs? or are you referring to something else?
Are you using Thunkable with a gmail.com email or do you use a work/school email address?
Thanks.

Same for me. Personal google account. Cannot create data source with google sheets.
And all former data sources are still listed, even when I deleted them. That brings confusion with duplicate names,
Deleting data sources is working well for me.

It took a while, but itās working now with my Google Sheets. I deleted the data sources I had and created a brand new one. Then the last step before it started working was deleting the Data Viewer List from the app and putting in a new one. Once I did that, the data source linked up like it was meant to do. Thanks!

Thanks everyone who has helped us make improvements to this component over the past few weeks.
Weāve just started a new playlist over on YouTube specifically for working the the Data Viewer. Take a look at the clip below to see how to connect to Google Sheets and import your data:
We also have new and improved docs to go with this:
