**Important:** Make sure you're signed into the correct Google account and have permissions to install add-ons in your workspace.

### 2. Click the Install Button

### Troubleshooting Guide

#### I don't see the PipedriveSheets menu after installation

Try these steps:

1. Refresh your Google Sheets page (Ctrl+F5 or Cmd+Shift+R)
2. Check that you're in a Google Sheets document (not Google Drive)
3. Look under **Extensions > PipedriveSheets** in the menu
4. If still not visible, try clicking **Extensions > Add-ons > Manage add-ons** and ensure PipedriveSheets is enabled.

#### The installation failed or permissions were denied

This can happen for several reasons:

- **Admin restrictions:** Your Google Workspace admin may need to approve the add-on first.
- **Browser issues:** Try clearing your browser cache or using an incognito window.
- **Account permissions:** Make sure you're signed in with the correct Google account.

Contact your IT administrator if you're in a managed Google Workspace environment.

#### Can I install this on multiple Google accounts?

Yes! PipedriveSheets can be installed on multiple Google accounts. Each installation is independent:
- You'll need to install it separately for each Google account.
- Each account can connect to different Pipedrive instances.
- Team features allow collaboration across different Google accounts.

#### Is my data secure during the installation?

Absolutely! PipedriveSheets follows Google's security best practices:
- **Minimal permissions:** We only request the permissions needed for functionality.
- **No data storage:** Your data stays in Google Sheets and Pipedrive - we don't store it elsewhere.
- **Secure connections:** All API calls use HTTPS encryption.
- **Google verification:** Our add-on is verified by Google's security review process.
