n8N, google docs and tables

Hey guys, is it possible to add a table in google docs through n8N in a specific place?

I have tables in google sheets, and I want to add them to google docs in the place of a specific key.

Describe the problem/error/question

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

(Select the nodes on your canvas and use the keyboard shortcuts CMD+C/CTRL+C and CMD+V/CTRL+V to copy and paste the workflow.)

Share the output returned by the last node

Information on your n8n setup

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

Is possible only by Api

I tried to do it with google docs api, but the only path i found was the update.
Anyway I can do it?

Hi @Nazih_Saba, the accepted response in this StackOverflow thread suggests this isn’t directly possible. Instead, you would have to first create an image of your sheet, then insert the image.

This might not be desirable (as data in images is harder to process than data in actual tables), so perhaps you want to consider an alternative structure here?
