Not Duplicating Spreadsheet Rows #334

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
If the upload to Fusion Tables fails, but the upload the Google Docs works, I 
think I end up with two rows in Google Docs when I try again. I could untick 
Google Docs when I try again, but that means remembering to tick it again when 
I upload another track. Could My Tracks realise that there's already a row in 
the spreadsheet, and simply fill in the URL column? Alternatively, ticking and 
unticking the options when uploading could only change it for that upload. 
Permanent changes could be made in the My Tracks settings.

The api basically just does an append.  It is actually rather hard not do that.

I'm not a programmer and don't know about the Google Docs API, but isn't it 
possible to look at the date and time that the track was recorded, and see if 
there's already a row with that same date and time?

If not, is my other suggestion (only temporarily disabling the upload to Google 
Docs) a workable solution?

If sync to Google spreadsheets is implemented, this problem will get solved.
