Hey @Anga_Matsuluka, Welcome to the community 🎉 Are you using n8n cloud or self hosted / Desktop? The error could be a few different things but to start knowing how you have n8n running is probably the most important part. If it is self hosted screenshots of what you have setup could be helpful as well along with a screenshot of the error so we can see what part of the authentication flow is showing it. Just don’t forget to hide anything sensitive like passwords or API keys / secrets. ---

Hey @Anga_Matsuluka, Is that creating a document or adding a sheet to an existing document? ---

Hey @Anga_Matsuluka, That looks like the sheet ID is not correct, It is normally a mix of numbers and letters or just numbers. Try changing it to By Name and see if that shows the options. ---
