Issue with google doc node

Questions

Describe the problem/error/question

Hi, I’m trying to create the following workflow : trigger with a google drive update / get data from a google doc (through chat gpt-4o) / create a google sheet document with these data. I think that I need a google doc node (get document) for that, however I’m geeting the following error message in the google doc node yet the document id is correct (I also tried the url). My credentials are set up and I connected my google doc account and allowed googe doc api

What is the error message (if any)?

I am sorry, it is not clear what you are trying to achieve here. Would you like to give it another shot, maybe in a step by step manner? Something like

  • workflow is triggered when
  • file is read…
  • …
  • …

Thanks.

Assuming you didn’t paste the full workflow code.

You might have an AI Agent node and bring a google doc tool.

Here is a working example:

Thanks a lot!! I truly appreciate :slight_smile: may I ask why do I need a split out node? And got it for a google docs node connected to the AI agent

depend on the data format

If you want all content in one cell. You don’t need to split out.

But if you want every content split into different rows. Then you can use split out
