Google Sheets: Different data parsed when on mobile? #824

Closed Rinyuu closed 4 years ago

Rinyuu commented 4 years ago

Okay, so I'm a huge noob and not very good at stuff like this at all, so I hope this is not something very stupid:

I use PapaParse to pull some data from one of my Google Spreadsheets, to use on my website. This works perfectly fine... At least when accessing the website from a desktop!

When using a phone, or even when using the Chrome Dev Tools in mobile mode, the sheet didn't get parsed at all. I added a delimiter (","), and this seems to make it parse in mobile mode as well... but the parsed data I can see in the console is completely different from the data I get in desktop mode... Why is there a difference?

Is PapaParse not compatible with mobile? Or does Google give me a different version of the sheets when requesting it from a mobile user agent?

There is no diference on the code run by PapaParse in mobile and on desktop.

Probably this is related to google sheets behaving diferently depending on the device.

I think there is nothing to fix from our side so I'm closiing this issue.

If you think there is a something wrong with our library please provide a code sample to reproduce the issue outside google sheets.
