# Google spreadsheet

 *  Resolved [uebes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uebes/)

 * [6 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-spreadsheet-3/)
 * The shortcode [gdoc “my Google spreadsheet url”] does not work.
    With direct 
   input of the link “Google spreadsheet url” in the browser, I can see the spreadsheet.
 * With the shortcode on a page, I get always the message “file can’t be open”.
   
   My Google spreadsheet is shared, using the “Anyone with the link” option.
 * Please help
 * Kind regards
    Siegfried

 * You’re missing the `key` attribute. This is wrong:
 * >  [gdoc “my Google spreadsheet url”]
 * This is right:
 *     ```
       [gdoc key="https://example.com/"]
       ```

 * I used this link: [gdoc key=”[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b1G0m3UYmD9OcUgKdA7gOCLoycSDxeNv/view?usp=sharing/%5D](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b1G0m3UYmD9OcUgKdA7gOCLoycSDxeNv/view?usp=sharing/%5D)
 * Could be the Theme storefront and woocommerce the problem?

 * That is not a Google Sheet link, so it is not expected to work.

 * The first was from the google acmes setting.
    This link was from the Google Excel
   page: [gdoc key=”[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UdXxKgPs_Xs5FKr_XJ3g7nNQhsDRyrjcutO7wvoKJKg/edit#gid=0/%5D](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UdXxKgPs_Xs5FKr_XJ3g7nNQhsDRyrjcutO7wvoKJKg/edit#gid=0/%5D)
 * I don’t find any other link for the sheet.
    I get always the message File can’t
   be open and a standard Google link:drive.google.com/start/apps.

 * One more question
    Is it possible to use a shortcode to query my Google Spreadsheet
   and display only the rows from the logged in wordpress user (like: [gdoc key=”
   ABCDEFG” query=”where ID = logged in user”]?

 * This plugin has existed for almost ten years. Please look for answers to your
   questions before you post here. Your question has almost certainly been answered
   before.
