Getting 'Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials?' error on Google Sheets node?

I am getting a ‘forbidden’ error 403 on a Google sheets node (trying to append a row on a sheet) but my credentials and google permissions are configured correctly since I am able to update another sheet in the same document.
I am getting the error message ‘Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials? The caller does not have permission’.

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Hey @croth

It looks like Google doesn’t think you have access to edit the sheet, can you see if the user you use to authenticate with in n8n can edit the sheet in the browser?

At the moment as Google thinks you don’t have permission we will need to start there as this is not something we control.
