UPDATE: I see that there is a post from 5 1/2 years ago about this topic here.
I notice that some community sheets are installable via the Tiller Money Feeds add-on.
I am wondering if there is a process for a sheet to migrate from Community add-on to Tiller Money Feeds add-on. Can we for example up-vote for them to migrate?
It seems to me that migrating from the lab to something that is safe to install would signify an accomplishment worth celebrating.
Can someone please help me understand why the Tiller Community Add-on insists on unrestricted access (permissions to read, write and delete) to ALL my documents in my google workspace.
In the alternative, are their any plans to move to a version that requires only minimal permissions? - a la the native Tiller Money Feeds add-on - and if there are is there any timeline for the correction?
You have two good questions. Thank you for asking them.
For starters, I’ll can provide you with some links to posts that cover the topics so you can read up on them. I’ll yield to the experts @randy@heather and others to drill down into any of the details as needed.
FYI: We may need to split these into two separate posts in the future.
Addressing your first question on Community Solutions:
The following posts are a good starting point for the most recent information regarding Community templates and the implementation of Tiller Money Feeds.
Addressing your second question regarding unrestricted access:
In the following post you can read through the thread for most recent dialog on this topic. It has been raised by a number of members within this post and is being addressed by @heather and team as you will read. I’ll let the posts speak to the issue as I can’t add any value to the issue and resolutions being addressed.
Thank you for your responses @Clint.C - the links you have provided are very helpful in helping me understand the history and the journey to get here.
I’d like to find a way to access the functionality for apple card, paypal, amazon per this workflow using the Tiller Money Feed add-on
Perhaps @randy and @heather could help with this migration “from lab to production” - for example… perhaps @randy could say if he thinks this particular spreadsheet has matured to a point where it meets his criteria for an initial release via Tiller Money Feed - and perhaps @heather could say whether it meets Tiller’s standards for incorporating a spreadsheet into the Tiller Money Feed.
I found this post that provides a solution for importing amazon orders - I just installed it and it works perfectly - kudos @daveahlers - (notably this sheet only requires permissions for the exact sheet that its installed in)
Hi @Alex.B - we don’t have current plans to add more community templates, workflows, or tools from the Community Solutions add-on into the Tiller Money Feeds add-on on our short term roadmap. It is something we intend to revisit in the future and deprecate the community-solutions add-on completely, but our focus is elsewhere right now. Primarily, we’re making some changes to the foundational aspects of our service to ensure long term scalability, maintainability, and reliability.
The CSV Importer on the Tiller Console is your best bet for importing manual exports from other sources like Apple Card. It won’t handle the Amazon data in it’s original format, but you could transform the data from that export into a format that it can handle so long as it has Date, Description, and Amount headers.
