Hi Cyntia,
I don't understand the meaning of your question.
Could you be more specific please?
Thank you.

How do you add a preset filter to a google site? When I add a "?" to the URL it drops it from the page.

becomes

When I try to set it as a url for the page in page setting.
Hi Mark,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to add parameters as a url in page setting in google sites.

Hi,
Is there a way to share the view without having viewers have to log in? I have a form and would like to include the link to the view as the "Thank You" message, so all users are able to see the results upon form submission. Not all users/ form submitters will be comfortable or interested in logging in, and subsequently allowing permissions for an application they didn't know they were using. Thanks!
Hi EO,
You have to change the access to your spreadsheet in public or use "Anyone with the link" to invite the people concerned.
Here is an article that could be useful: https://support.awesome-table.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001069505#4.

Hi,
Since the Files Cabinet add-on can't display folders yet, I used the 'Get filtered URL' option and I'm filtering by folder name.
But when I enter the URL in the Awesome Table gadget, it says the link is invalid.
Anyway to get a valid link so we can display a filtered view on a sites page?
Thank you,
Marc
Hi Marc Bernard Schauber,
- Preset filters in URL
Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately pasting the filtered URL created by Awesome Table in the link box in #2 above, gives an error of invalid link, making it not possible to embed a filtered list. When Awesome Table supports using a folder structure so users can navigate to the folder they need and find files, this type of embedded filter list won't be necessary (for the functionality I need.) But for now, it seems to be the only work around.... if only the filtered URLs were valid in the Awesome Table gadget.
Hopefully there is a way around this. Thoughts?
Thanks,
Marc
Hi Marc Bernard Schauber,
I understand your problem better.
You need to add the filter in your page url but not in your classic google site gadget. Actually you just need to add the filter at the end of your page url. But the url of your Awesome Table view must be the same, without the filter.
Thank you.
Thomas
Thomas,
PERFECT! Thank you so much, that works flawlessly.
This 'trick' might be worth adding to an KB article :)
While I'm here, any idea when folder navigation may be available in the File Cabinet add-on?
Thank you again for the help!!!
Marc
Hi Marc Bernard Schauber,
I'm glad you solved your problem!
Regarding the folder navigation in the Files Cabinet add-on, I don't know when this idea could be developed but I will keep you informed. :)

Thomas
Is there a limit to the free tier when embedding an AwesomeTable into a site?
Hi Lilo Santos - OIT,
We are truly sorry for the delay of the response.
I'm not sure to understand your question. Could you provide more details on what you want to know?
Kind regards,
Thomas
Buenos días,
Me gustaría saber si hay forma de evitar que cuando insertar "awesome table" en un nuevo site de google, a todos los usuarios que quieran entrar se les obligue a tener que "permitir" awesome table acceda a su drive.
Nosotros estamos compartiendo en público los documentos de drive, por lo que a las personas que acceden al site, no debería pedirles nada.
Muchas gracias de antemano.
Hi ESTHER YAGÜE HERRANZ,
Are you sure your spreadsheet is shared with "Anyone with the link" or is in public mode? Your spreadsheet is in view mode or in public mode?
If that is the case would it be possible for you to send us a screenshot of your Awesome Table view in your website when people want to see it?
Please send us these informations at "support@awesome-table.com".
Kind regards,
Thomas
I have set up my table and anyone with full edit permissions can view the table but when I have an end user that has anyone in company with link can view they get the following ...
It should look like this...
I have verified that all files have view access. What am I missing. I really like the awesome tables and would like to utilize it to share information across my division.
Thanks,
Kim
Hi Kimberly Reaume,
Would it be possible for you to share your Awesome Table view and your spreadsheet at "support@awesome-table.com"? Just make sure you give us access to your data.
Thanks in advance.
Thomas
Do you need access to all 7 files? Also what do you mean view of the Awesome Table? Do you need to be able to view my site?
Hi Kimberly Reaume,
We just need you give us access right to your spreadsheet and we also need the link of your Awesome Table view. It would be also great if you can also provide us your URL website.
But please share us all these informations at "support@awesome-table.com". It will be easier to communicate.
Thanks in advance.
Thomas
