Using VS2010 C# (.NET 4.0), I try to insert a spreadsheet in Google Docs, but the Insert call with the provided feed URI fails. Which feed should I use?
DocsHelper helper = new DocsHelper("NewAppV2");
GridSheet newSheet = new GridSheet();
helper.Authenticate("[email protected]", "SecretPass");
newSheet.Name = "SheetNew";
newSheet.Type = "grid";
GridSheet createdSheet = helper.Create("googleDocsFeedUri", newSheet);
hey, try using the docs feed uri ‘https://docs.google.com/feeds/documents/private/full’. sometimes google updates apis and you get this error bc its expecting that exact feed. give it a shot and hope it fixs the issue!
Check that you are actually using the correct feed for spreadsheets rather than the general documents feed. My experience showed that the dedicated spreadsheets feed URL, which is ‘https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/spreadsheets/private/full’, works much better when creating a grid sheet via the API. It is likely that the code you are referencing expects a spreadsheet-specific URI instead of the one provided in the post. This small change helped resolve a similar issue in a past project.
During a project I worked on several years ago, I encountered similar difficulties where using an incorrect feed URI led to unexpected failures. I eventually discovered that checking the latest API documentation, as well as confirming the intended use of a specific feed, was the key. Even though the general documents feed seemed to work initially, I switched to using the dedicated spreadsheets feed for enhanced stability. The change not only resolved the issue but also streamlined the integration process, making it easier to maintain the application in the long run.
hey, ive noticed sometimes even minro differences in the feed url can cause issues. check the latest docs for the correct endpoint instead of general feed, it may be resolving your problem.
