How It Works​

The Delete Row node removes a specific row from a Google Spreadsheet. When executed, the node:

  1. Validates the provided Spreadsheet Id and Row Number inputs
  2. Connects to the Google Spreadsheet using the provided ID
  3. Constructs a delete dimension request for the specified row
  4. Sends the delete request to the Google Sheets API
  5. Returns any errors encountered during the process

Requirements​

  • A valid Google Spreadsheet ID
  • A valid row number (1-based index)
  • Proper Google Sheets API authentication and permissions

Error Handling​

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

  • Empty or invalid Spreadsheet Id
  • Invalid Row Number (negative or zero)
  • Google Sheets API authentication or permission errors
  • Network or connectivity issues with Google Sheets API

Usage Notes​

  • The Spreadsheet Id can be obtained from the URL of your Google Spreadsheet
  • Row numbers are 1-based, meaning the first row is row 1, not row 0
  • Deleting a row will shift all rows below it up by one position
  • This operation cannot be undone, so use with caution
  • Ensure your Google account has proper permissions to modify the target spreadsheet
