**Important Notes**

* Do not modify the structure of the selected worksheet (e.g., changing column headers, colors, or formatting), as this may disrupt the data synchronization process.
* Only use the worksheet to receive data; avoid manual edits to prevent potential issues.

### 🔧 Troubleshooting

#### ❗ “My Google account isn’t showing any sheets.”

Try these:

* Make sure you connected the correct Google account.
* Refresh the page after connecting.
* Ensure your sheet is not in Trash or Restricted folders.
* Ensure you have at least *View* or *Edit* permissions.

#### ❗ “New submissions are not appearing in the sheet.”

Try:

* Confirm the worksheet tab still exists (Sheet1, Sheet2, etc.)
* Check that you selected the correct fields to sync.
* Disconnect → reconnect Google, then save again.
* The sheet is manually edited ⇒ the structure is changed.&#x20;
