How do you set an app so that once an individual user has downloaded app, the data they submit goes to an individual (automatically created for them) spreadsheet? Ideally, other users would not be able to see each other’s data.

A Glide App can only be connected to a single Google spreadsheet.

The best way to secure user data is through the use of Row Owners.

thank you! this was super helpful. i have figured this out for my app, but can’t figure out how to get emails to auto submit along with data so that the email is the owner.
