FAQ

Why isn’t the data send to spreadsheet? Caldera Forms Submit is just Spinning.

Sometimes it can take a while of spinning before it goes through. But if the entries never show up in your Sheet then one of these things might be the reason:

  1. Wrong access code ( Check debug log )
  2. Wrong Sheet name or tab name
  3. Wrong Column name mapping ( keep in mind that not to use capital letters, number as initial and special characters like underscores, double or single code, space etc. You can only use small letters and hyphen. )

Please double-check those items and hopefully getting them right will fix the issue.

How do I get the Google Access Code required in step 3 of Installation?

  • On the Admin Panel > Caldera forms > Google Sheets screen, click the « Get Code » button.
  • In a popup Google will ask you to authorize the plugin to connect to your Google Sheets. Authorize it – you may have to log in to your Google account if you aren’t already logged in.
  • On the next screen, you should receive the Access Code. Copy it.
  • Now you can paste this code back on the Admin Panel > Caldera forms > Google Sheets screen.
