Unable to connect Google sheets

Rasiel_Rodriguez · June 30, 2025, 2:24am

Hi, I’m currently working on my first build.
I was following a YouTube tutorial, but ran into an issue when trying to connect Google Sheets to the AI agent. Instead of letting me input a client ID and client secret, it forces me to sign in with my Google account directly.

Additionally, I get this message:
“Enterprise plan users can pull in credentials from external vaults.”

I tried running it anyway, but it doesn’t work.
Any idea how I can fix this or work around it?
this image its how it appeared on my build !

and this one its how appeared on the video i was following

Are you running n8n on cloud? Because cloud hosted n8n shows sign-in with google option, but if you self host then you can add the client id.

Yes, it was in the cloud. How do I connect it if I want to use the cloud option?

Hi @Rasiel_Rodriguez ,
Can you tell me little more about why you want to input oauth credentials? Are you not able to use your Google sheet account with just the sign in button?
