My google sheet has scripts, but they do not copy when I copy the app from one user to the next ---

I tried with one of my apps, and the scripts copy over. Triggers may need to be set up again. I don’t know what happens when another user copies the app. Scripts may be a little more deeply tied to a users account. I suppose Glide has no knowledge of your scripts and has no reason to copy them. It also might be a permission or security issue, but I have no idea. Do scripts copy over if you copy this app, or just the sheet? [https://vkjff.glideapp.io](https://vkjff.glideapp.io) ---

No scripts copied, just the sheet ---

I’m guessing google blocks scripts from being copied with a sheet to a different user. ---

Any suggestions for workarounds? I’m not at all familiar with the publishing options, but would publishing the script as one of the options fix the problem? ---

Just write up instructions with the script code included and how to get it set up and running. ---

I just tried to copy a google sheet from one user to another and the script copied. Seems to be a glide problem ---

I don’t know. It’s either a Google API limitation or a user authority limitation. You initializing a copy of your own sheet it different than somebody else or a third party like glide initializing the copy. They may not have full authority to everything in your Google account, such as scripts.
