SalesforceInstead of troubleshooting the nativeConnector for Google Sheets installation errors, you can use a more reliable alternative that bypasses these common setup problems entirely.
Here’s how to avoid installation failures and get your Salesforce data into Google Sheets without the headaches.
Skip installation errors with Coefficient integration
CoefficientThe native Salesforce Connector frequently fails due to Google Workspace permissions, API version conflicts, and authentication issues.works as a Google Sheets add-on that eliminates these installation barriers while providing better functionality.
How to make it work
Step 1. Install Coefficient from Google Workspace Marketplace.
Add Coefficient directly from the Google Workspace Marketplace without worrying about admin restrictions or API version mismatches. The installation process bypasses the common “insufficient privileges” and “API version mismatch” errors that plague the native connector.
Step 2. Authorize your Salesforce connection.
Use OAuth authentication to connect to Salesforce – no complex configuration required. Coefficient handles MFA requirements and provides clear error messaging if any permissions need adjustment, unlike the cryptic errors from the native connector.
Step 3. Select your data source and configure import settings.
Choose from existing Salesforce reports, specific objects, or write custom SOQL queries. Configure automated scheduling with hourly, daily, or weekly refresh intervals. Apply advanced filtering with AND/OR logic that goes beyond what the native connector offers.
Step 4. Set up enhanced features unavailable in the native connector.
Enable automatic refresh scheduling, dynamic filtering that points to Google Sheets cells, and better handling of large datasets with built-in pagination. You also get Slack and email alerts when your data updates.
