Warning message in Google Sheets

[Mark.S]

Here is relatively recent response regarding this warning message:

"Warning: Some formulas are trying to send and receive data from external parties."

hi @lions04 and all We’re aware of this. It’s due to an update that Google pushed. It’s because our logo is embedded in many sheets in the template using a URL reference (=image) that’s pointing to where the image is stored in our Google cloud storage, which is an “external” location to the Google Sheet. We will be working to update that in the coming weeks to use a different embed method so that it doesn’t appear anymore.
