For now I`m setting no restrictions. Since it is an MVP, I`m trying to understand what a basic and a hard user would be. After a while, Ill figure out how to charge for it and what limitations should a free and a paid user have.
My Google API rate limit is way bigger then 60/minute.
300 Read requests per minute
300 Write request per minute
Since Ive just launched it, that number is far far away from being reach. (If it happens, the number can be increased).
Regarding the SSL cert, some other users pointed the problem but I can`t replicated. Tried with many different browsers. Im not sure about whats happening, it`s always working for me but I will keep digging.
Have you thought about auto-installing https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/triggers into the connected sheet, and maintaining a cache of the data that you invalidate onEdit? Would likely improve read latency dramatically, though it would make reads eventually-consistent.
To others seeing this - has anyone else ever tried this approach? Are there players out there who do this and have SOC II etc. data security measures?
Disclaimer: I work at Glide but not on Google Sheets integration.
Triggers/AppScript - not that I am aware of right now...
Everyone I know doing stuff with GSheets (including Glide) is using a full-sync approach with an optimistic write layer of some sort.
GSheets API frequently reports being unable to do things, sometimes because it's calculating (common for huge sheets), sometimes just because it's down, other-times because rate limits
My impression is it's not a great API to build on directly.
A trigger based system that captured writes and wrote them to an outbox sheet could drastically speed up the sync process however.
The reason why we don't use that approach is there isn't APIs sufficient to setup this sort of thing automatically (last time I checked at least) and it makes changes to the users sheets which isn't impossible to live with but is distasteful.
From what I see, the Common Name for the cert at https://zerosheets.com is `*.ip-66-228-52-143.cloudezapp.io` rather than zerorsheets.com. It's issued by Let's Encrypt. www.zerosheets.com is issued by Amazon. Hope that helps.
Same issue here. At least on firefox initially the bare domain shows the error, but if you visit www and then try to load the bare domain it will then redirect to www on subsequent loads. I was able to replicate in a private window.
