Description

Creating and publishing a Google Sheets Add-on involves several steps, including coding, testing, packaging, and submitting the add-on for publication. In this walkthrough, I'll guide you through the entire process, including the challenges you might encounter and how to overcome them.

During the course of this video course I publish my 6th add-on. I share with you the problems, rejections, challenges, and how to overcome them all.

I share with you the website template I use for all my add-ons, and the exact theories I use now to publish on the Workspace Marketplace to be found.

This course is great for those who want to extend the functionality of Google Sheets, or those who want to integrate their own app into Sheets. Whether you want to make something for sheets users to find you, or you want to make a functioning app for your current customers in sheets. This course has something for you.

If you have an add-on in mind to make, let's walkthrough the entire process of creating, coding, and ultimately publishing a Google Sheets Add-on.

If you have not yet gotten an idea there's plenty in this course!

Whether you're making a free add-on, a paid add-on, or even an add-on just for your organization, this course will help you through the entire process.
