Thanks for the answer !

I had in fact created only 1 app at first, but it’s for school and i can’t risk to have problems with data security. I decided to rethink the whole app to avoid using names or emails.

there’s an error with Glide. When you duplicate the App with the option of making a copy of the underlying source Sheet, it doesn’t make a copy of the sheet.

What happens when you are editing that copied app and click on the pencil on the left hand side of the builder to edit the sheet? Does it open the original or the copy?

Yes, it opens the original Sheet. Also in Google Drive no new Sheet is created.

Hi, I am building an app for my company. I started the app with a google sheet from my personal google account. But, now I using it for the company. I would like to transfer the google sheet to my company google account. Is that possible? I am also thinking of a scenario where if i leave the company, how would I transfer the sheet to the company? Thanks

Thanks, Shall I go ahead and do it? Hope it won’t affect the app! Please confirm as the above is not a glideapps reference, so just a little anxious.

I don’t think transferring the ownership of the Google Sheets will affect your app as it already has the license to connect with your sheet, but you can try a duplicate just to make sure.
