I am trying to migrate an Excel sheet to Google sheets and having a problem with the links to folders as can not get them to work. Tried to use this format:
=HYPERLINK("Folder/sub Folder","link label")
Is there a way to get the folders to open or is it just not possible because Google sheets is web based and the security permissions won't allow it to open a windows folder?
The HYPERLINK() function of Google Sheets requires as first parameter a URL.
If you want to include a link to a Google Drive folder you should use the URL of that folder. The sharing URl of a folder looks like the following one
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1B5xqUTMMK_n6NmdkTUhsbUd9SE0&usp=sharing
The URL of a folder taken from the Google Drive UI looks like the following one
https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1B5xqUTMMK_n6NmdkTUhsbUd9SE0
Note: I changed some characters of the real folder ID to prevent access requests.

My LISP routines are on the Google Share Drive at my work. I have buttons in my custom ribbon that calls my routines using a mapped drive letter URL link.
URL Link example in my custom Macro:
Goal:
Trying to share this with the other CAD users in the office.
Problem:
Various CAD Users have different mapped drive letters (Ex: H:\ or S:\ instead of G:).
Trying to avoid going around and manually changing the drive letter to match their mapping every time I updated the CUIX file (since path would be overwritten).
Would like to use the universal Google Share Drive web based link (by selecting the file and choose "get link" in Google Drive and copy the link).
The Swap:
Current URL Mapping in my Macro example (if image above not showing):
^C^C(load "G:\shardrive\CAD_Department\CAD_menu\LISP\My_routine.lsp");My_routine;
Example of swapping with the Google Share Drive link (not working):
^C^C(load "https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BlU92IihdhhcnRlcl9mWxl/view?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-0VxGZXU_D8YjtjgjzQZnQ");My_routine;
Another method I tried
^C^C(command-s "_browser" "https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BlU92IihdhhcnRlcl9mWxl/view?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-0VxGZXU_D8YjtjgjzQZnQ/");My_routine;
Anyone know the proper syntax for the macro?
Thanks in advance!
Sounds like a more configurable approach is needed, where the users can map the drives with whatever path they want (G:, S:\ or whatever). But they can still use the tools that are inside said drive.
To do this there are three things that would help:
1.) start using AutoCAD profiles. It's possible write a setup script to create the profile for the user. This profile would contain a support file path entry for the location of your LISP code. The path would vary depending on where the user has google drive mapped to.
2.) load all LISP from the profile when AutoCAD starts up, this can be done with the acaddoc.lsp file.
3.) remove all hard-coded load statements from the CUI buttons
For the issue I mentioned in my comment above about opening a folder through the CUIX macro only (and not through a LISP routine), I found this possible solution:
^C^C(startapp "explorer" (vl-string-translate "/" (chr 92) "C:/TEMP"));

More testing needed but so far so good...
Thank you Paul!
as I'm not a web developer by any means, this is me just asking a question for that I have not found a solution for.
I have a google sheet with multiple pages/sheets within it. the file is embeded in an iframe inside a webpage and I pulled the url and can open it directly using the url. the following link is just an example as I can't share the actual link since I am not allowed to:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/{key}/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false
I have tried this:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/download/spreadsheets/Export?key={key}
and is not working I get an error:
Sorry, unable to open the file at present.
Please check the address and try again.
the file is not meant for anyone to download nor share. Furthremore, since it is continuosely manually updated by author and I need to keep track of updates, taking screenshots is not efficient since the file is too big.
is there any way I can download the actual sheet to my device (so I can compare file updates over the long run)
Thank you.
I believe your goal as follows.
You want to download a Google Spreadsheet.
You are the owner of Google Spreadsheet.
The Spreadsheet is published as the Web publish. So the URL of Spreadsheet is https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTl9bcwMSjoxYj406evzJefFodkVEUlV2KIq34Y5V8BFWJygAFrPSA7L5d89TASDUjkPG4b2SfN2rpe/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false.
Issue and workaround:
Unfortunately, the Google Spreadsheet cannot be directly downloaded as the Google Spreadsheet. It seems that this is the current specification. In this case, it is required to export the Google Spreadsheet as other mimeType. For example, it's XLSX format, PDF format and CSV format. But the URL of https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTl9bcwMSjoxYj406evzJefFodkVEUlV2KIq34Y5V8BFWJygAFrPSA7L5d89TASDUjkPG4b2SfN2rpe/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false cannot directly export. So, in this answer, as a workaround, I would like to propose to use the URL for exporting Google Spreadsheet as other mimeType.
When your URL is used, the URL for exporting is as follows.
Modified url:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTl9bcwMSjoxYj406evzJefFodkVEUlV2KIq34Y5V8BFWJygAFrPSA7L5d89TASDUjkPG4b2SfN2rpe/pub?output=xlsx
In this case, when you access to above URL using browser, your Spreadsheet can be exported as a XLSX file.
When output=xlsx is modified to output=pdf and output=csv, you can export as a PDF file and a CSV file, respectively.
When you want to export the specific sheetm please use the sheet ID like gid=0. The URL is as follows.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTl9bcwMSjoxYj406evzJefFodkVEUlV2KIq34Y5V8BFWJygAFrPSA7L5d89TASDUjkPG4b2SfN2rpe/pub?output=xlsx&gid=0
Note:
When you want to make users downloading the Spreadsheet, you can add the tag a as follows.
Download
Right now I have an Excel file locally in my iOS application and the file is downloaded from our own servers.
I want to be able to edit the Excel file somehow and I can't seem to get my head around how to do it with the Excel app.
I'm aware that you can't edit local files in another app like that, so I tried with links to files on my OneDrive account. I just can't seem to get the url right.
It seems like I need a direct link to the file, but all I get is a guest access link, when I make the file shareable.
Have you tried the Google Sheets app? Might do the trick.
I know how to do Google Shopping with a website in general.
The problem with Shopware is that the HTML file generated by Google (google1d9f9818967dfa4.html) is not accessible when uploading it via FTP.
So where/how do I need to place the file in order for Google to find it?
Google needs the generated file in the root directory like:
example.com/google1d9f9818967dfa4.html
Why should this file not be accessible?
Just Upload it to the Root Directory make also sure you are using the correct URL http://www.domain.com or http://domain.com
I've built an integration using the Google Docs API (using GData) allowing users to create/edit documents from another application. Originally, when documents were deleted we would have them permanently deleted. They were no longer visible in Google Docs or Google Drive. Now when they are deleted using the Google Docs API, they are still present in the list of Documents in Google Drive. When you attempt to follow the link to the document you arrive at the "Sorry, the page (or document) you have requested does not exist." page.
Does Google Drive not honor the actions taken via the Google Docs API? Do I need to delete these documents using both the Google Docs API and the Google Drive API? What if the user has not migrated to Google Drive? Is there a way to tell if the have migrated? Or do I force them to migrate so I can use the Google Drive API to keep their Google Drive clean of these dead documents?
The Drive API and the Docs List API both operate on the same resources so you only have to use one of them (and we recommend the former).
With the Drive API you can trash or delete files. When you trash a file, it will still be listed in Google Drive with a label to mark it as in trash, so that you can still untrash it.
If you want to remove a file completely, you have to use the delete method.
I was having the same problem and I believe this is some kind of caching on the drive UI.
The file does appear to be deleted correctly and is not visible to the drive API.
The orphaned stubs eventually get deleted as the cache is cleared every so often.
I found that by removing the file from the parent and then deleting it meant that it was easier to see what was going on when using the drive UI whilst testing my app.
service.children().delete(folderId=parent_id, childId=file_id).execute()
service.files().delete(fileId=file_id).execute()
I was facing the same problem while using Google Drive APIs. I think when the Delete api deletes the document, their is still some linking with parent folder remains, so the browser renders the document. when I tired to delete the document with below piece of code, it properly works for me.
DriveService.Childern.Delete(parentResId, fileId).Fetch(); // fileId=>ResourceId of document to be deleted
This is a caching issue, the file has actually been removed. If you try to open the file in the Drive UI you should see something along the lines of "Sorry, the file you have requested does not exist."
It will clear itself soon.
