Subject: “Google Sheets Integration - Forbidden Error (Caller Does Not Have Permission)”

Hi callin.io community,

I’m encountering an issue when attempting to update a Google Sheets database within callin.io. The error message I'm receiving is:

“Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials? The caller does not have permission.”

I have already verified the following:

  • Within the Google Cloud Console, I've confirmed that the email address used for setting up the Google Sheets credentials in callin.io is the same one I'm signed in with.
  • The Google Sheets API is enabled in my Google Cloud project.
  • The OAuth 2.0 consent screen is configured appropriately.
  • The specific sheet has been shared with the correct email address that possesses editing permissions.

Despite these checks, I continue to see this error. Has anyone else experienced this or have any suggestions for resolving it?

Thanks in advance!

Is it possible to retrieve data using the Google Sheets node? Does the error message provide any specific details?

Experiencing the same issue.

I'm attempting to set up my initial workflow and encountering an error when trying to write to the Google Sheets API, specifically:

‘caller does not have permission’

Here's what I've checked:

  1. The Sheets API is enabled within the Google Cloud console.
  2. The necessary scopes for read and write access have been configured.
  3. An OAuth2 client has been set up in the Google console. However, the AI assistant indicated that I don't need to input the client ID and client secret within callin.io.

Could someone please advise on what else might be missing to enable writing to Google Sheets?

Understood! It seems the document lacked the necessary permissions.
