Can't get worksheet tabs to work

Open AudereDavid opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I've followed the documentation, but I cannot seem to get Figma to appropriately call the right worksheet. The documentation is a bit sparse on the subject; is there a way examples could be shown?. I've tried naming pages, layers, groups, frames with the " // Worksheet name " but nothing works so far.

I do love the plug-in, though – apart from this issue it's working very well. Thanks.

let me show my file how i get data from two sheets and put them in layer. Figma link : https://www.figma.com/file/ZFTQCNPAwfqUjszGBusZ13/Untitled?node-id=23%3A55 worksheet link : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y303TfENv612wWNsua1YSpzBgV5C5_0z1PT_zVfiaOo/edit?usp=sharing

The above is the demonstration for your problem that will get solve i guess. Let me know if that help.

Hi there. Thanks so much for responding to my inquiry! I haven't had a chance to look it over yet, but I'm sure that will provide a lot of help just to see your examples.

Thanks again,

Example from @PrakTech works. To summarize:

  1. On the parent frame where your repeating grid is, specify the name of the Google Sheet tab like this: Frame 4873 // TabName
  2. Name the layers where you want text inserted like normal: #title
  3. Run the plugin

In my case, my Google Sheets tab name is Trends, so you can see the association between that key on the parent element, and where the data gets inserted nested inside:

HI, i have the same issue, it works great from a google sheet url but not from an excel doc. Anyone had any luck making it pull data in using tabs in excel?
