I have an integration with a SquareSpace form and want the values of the form written to a sheet (tab) in the google spreadsheet. I have started to set up “Create Spreadsheet Row”, but cannot find the spreadsheet.

The spreadsheet is in a Google Workspace Shared Drive, and it is shared with the user account that is running the Zap. However, that user account is not a member of the Shared Drive -- the file can be accessed in the “Shared With Me” folder, but that user cannot see the Shared Drive or scan it.

So when I am in Zapier looking for the document, and selecting Drive, the Shared Drives I am a member of appear, as well as My Drive, but the drive where the file is does not.

Is there a way to specify the driveID or other values to get at the tab of the sheet?

 

Thanks!

Hey ​@tomh,

There are few options you can try to fix this-

  • Enter the Spreadsheet ID manually in Create Spreadhsheet Row action. You can find the ID in the Google Sheets URL
  • Copy the spreadsheet to your Google Sheets account so the Zap will have the access.

Here is a helpful article about adding custom value to dropdown menu fields- https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496241696141-Add-custom-values-to-dropdown-menu-fields-in-Zaps. Hope it helps!

 


The magic is that the Drive value is optional, so adding the spreadsheet ID did the trick.


Thanks!!
