Spreadsheet key issues?

[miguelpaz]

Hi Jessica:
I fork the project to https://miguelpaz.github.io/sheetsee-pocket/ and it was up and running in no time. But when I add my spreadsheet key (URL = "17FWBzJhnEKqO0wkbyzNzDNMatyRJhwmC6BCVsFaZ0oU") it does not load. I went back and forth from your spreadsheet (it worked) to mine (it did not). The iftt recipe is the same, I published the spreadsheet to the web and is on view mode for all, but I still get:

Any thoughts?

I am having the same or similar issue. I cannot get my spreadsheet to show up. Same process, followed all the steps. I have even tried simplifying it by creating a spreadsheet and putting 2 or 3 lines of dummy data in it, still no change.

I believe the issue may be in the way that Google Sheets creates spreadsheet "keys" now. It appears as though the key from the demo is in a different format than the keys that are getting created for me when i make a new sheet.

here is my key
1PyNqkAMq6I-gONAcYpYCJqXt2n3cSamNkZkj-c8GvRE

notice the - symbols, this is common, as well as _ are in there sometimes too. Perhaps these symbols were not a part of the key before and the code thus cannot parse the url?

It might be following: instead of the 'normal' google file ID, you must use the one that shows after PUBLISHING the ssheet. That key is different!
