Google Sheets sources in mappings and mapping tasks

To read data from Google Sheets, configure a Google Sheets object as the Source transformation in a mapping or

mapping

task.

Specify the name and description of the Google Sheets source. Configure the source, query options, and advanced properties for the source object.

The following table describes the source properties that you can configure for a Google Sheets source:

Property	Description
Connection	Name of the active Google Sheets source connection.
Source Type	Type of the Google Sheets source objects available. You can read data from a single Google Sheets source object or parameterize the object.
Object	Name of the Google Sheets source object based on the source type selected.
Filter	Configure a simple filter or an advanced filter to remove rows at the source. You can improve efficiency by filtering early in the data flow. A simple filter includes a field name, operator, and value. Use an advanced filter to define a more complex filter condition, which can include multiple conditions using the AND or OR logical operators.

You can set the tracing level in the advanced properties session to determine the amount of details that logs contain.

The following table describes the tracing levels that you can configure:

Property	Description
Terse	The Secure Agent logs initialization information, error messages, and notification of rejected data.
Normal	The Secure Agent logs initialization and status information, errors encountered, and skipped rows due to transformation row errors. Summarizes session results, but not at the level of individual rows.
Verbose Initialization	In addition to normal tracing, the Secure Agent logs additional initialization details, names of index and data files used, and detailed transformation statistics.
Verbose Data	In addition to verbose initialization tracing, the Secure Agent logs each row that passes into the mapping. Also notes where the Secure Agent truncates string data to fit the precision of a column and provides detailed transformation statistics. When you configure the tracing level to verbose data, the Secure Agent writes row data for all rows in a block when it processes a transformation.
