Hi@Joachim Mund

I haven't personally used Google Apps script before, however based on their documentation it looks like this script is specific for Google products, such as Google Sheets. See:

https://developers.google.com/apps-script/overview

If you're looking for information on the Smartsheet API, here's a link to the developer's portal:

https://developers.smartsheet.com/

Cheers,

Genevieve

Hey @cabbsman<\/a> <\/p>

I'm not sure why you're getting the Authentication error, however I don't believe you need to connect to the developer account to track your FedEx parcel! 🙂<\/span><\/p>

Try disconnecting from the developer account and simply click Connect in the Extension:<\/p>

Hopefully this helps bypass the error. Let me know if that worked for you!<\/p>

Hey @Samuel Mueller<\/a> <\/p>

They key is something you can provide to Support to help them find the specific sheet down the line, if needed. For your purposes, it can help identify different sheets when they have the same name. <\/p>

Here's more information:<\/p>
