My bot shows a TypeError when initializing with Google Sheets. How can I resolve this? Revised code:

import telegram
from telegram.ext import Updater, CommandHandler, CallbackQueryHandler
import gspread
from google.oauth2 import service_account

tg_key = 'YOUR_TOKEN'
sheet_id = 'NEW_SHEET_ID'
creds = service_account.Credentials.from_service_account_file('path/to/creds.json', scopes=['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets'])

def fetch_records(sheet_name):
    client = gspread.authorize(creds)
    ws = client.open_by_key(sheet_id).worksheet(sheet_name)
    return ws.get_all_records()

def begin(update, context):
    markup = telegram.InlineKeyboardMarkup([
        [telegram.InlineKeyboardButton('Dashboard', callback_data='dashboard')],
        [telegram.InlineKeyboardButton('KPI', callback_data='kpi')]
    ])
    update.message.reply_text('Choose an option:', reply_markup=markup)

def handle_button(update, context):
    query = update.callback_query
    records = fetch_records(query.data)
    query.edit_message_text(text=str(records))

def run_bot():
    updater = Updater(tg_key, use_context=True)
    dispatcher = updater.dispatcher
    dispatcher.add_handler(CommandHandler('start', begin))
    dispatcher.add_handler(CallbackQueryHandler(handle_button))
    updater.start_polling()
    updater.idle()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    run_bot()

Based on my experience with similar issues, it’s important to ensure that your service account has the necessary permissions for accessing the Google Sheet. I encountered a TypeError when I forgot to share the sheet with the service account email, which resulted in unexpected output types during the data retrieval process. Additionally, reviewing the scopes in the credentials configuration may resolve mismatches between expected and returned types in the API calls. A thorough review of error logging helped me pinpoint the exact operation where the type conversion failed, leading to a better understanding of the integration process.
