Thank you for providing the neat demonstration, it helped me very much

I was having difficulties because an error occurred in streamlit web distribution. I was able to solve the problem by watching the video. Among the streamlit content I am studying, your video is the best. thank you. Please continue to produce good streamlit content.

Great video as always. I would like the video about the login to see how you can control which user can see certain info!

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching. Login (authentication) is already on 'videos-to-do' list! Stay tuned! ✌️

[@ricardo.alves.campos]

Excellent as always, a second video about login would be awesome!

[@CodingIsFun]

As always, thanks a lot for your comments! I added the login feature on my "videos-to-do-list" ;)

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching and your request is well noted! 👍

[@GeniusLila]

Thank you immensely for this invaluable content! Your effort is truly appreciated. 😊 Could you consider crafting another video demonstrating how to incorporate eye-catching statistics, just like Google does in their forms with pie charts, line graphs, or bar graphs? It'd be amazing to see this in action for data like gender ratios, age distribution, course preferences, and more. I'm curious if Streamlit alone can handle this or if you'd recommend building a separate admin dashboard. Could you share your insights on that process? Can't wait to see what's next! 👍

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching and your suggestion! 👍

[@bolokangmpoma]

@@CodingIsFun As i'm walking on implementing something similar to this, I would want to know if you have done a video on this comment. I'm enjoying this so far

[@zkiyyeller3525]

I always appreciate your content Sven. You would use this over google forms if the rest of your app is in streamlit correct?

[@CodingIsFun]

Thank you for watching. I'm happy to hear that you like the content. I think it really depends on your use case. MS Forms is great and works right out of the box. However, if you need more customization options, the combination of Streamlit and Google Sheets could be another solution.

[@nssdesigns]

This is super interesting and I can already think of uses for something like this. Do you have any videos on pulling data from spreadsheets Excel or Google Sheets and using that data to fill in online forms... like reverse scraping?

[@aminedj430]

great i will be using this in my next project wish i am working on now i needed a database for my collected info i think i can even add tableau to this.

[@CodingIsFun]

Glad it was helpful and good luck with your project! 🤞

[@swelanauguste6176]

Thanks for the all the videos. Can you do a streamlit auth video with postgres?

[@CodingIsFun]

Thank you for watching the videos! I will create another video to add authentication, but I cannot promise to use a PostgreSQL database for that. Nonetheless, the steps/code will be very similar.

[@zazzleq6139]

Haha 😂 that woman diving into the water was so funny

[@linh-loantran8272]

Thanks very much for the video. Always enjoy and learn so much from your contents. Could you please integrate the authentication to protect this application?

[@CodingIsFun]

Happy to hear that you enjoyed this one as well! Yes, in the coming weeks, I will create another video to show how to add the authentication.

[@HendrikYap]

Thank you for the lesson. Yeah now we need authentication and also how to let user update their own details.

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching. Well noted! 👍

[@tritruong1299]

Love your contents, can you do a project similar but using sharepoint api to update list ?

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching! I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying my videos, and thank you for your video suggestion. I can't make any promises, but your suggestion is well noted.

[@InteligenciadeNegocios]

Thank you for your help, just a quick question, i am facing the following error: Spreadsheet must be specified

[@CodingIsFun]

Hard to tell from a distance why you are facing an issue

[@asseeltarish7217]

can you please tell me what python and streamlit versions you are using in this video because i am facing a lot of compatibility issues between them and other libraries such as st-gsheets-connection

[@christophoramorim3147]

Também estou com o mesmo problema, instalei apenas o python e vs code para começar e esta dando erro. Estou usando atualmente o python na versão 3.12.3

[@jajwarehouse1]

Does this work if multiple users input data concurrently, or does it overwrite the google sheet with the last update?

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching. Multiple users could use it at the same time.

[@eimdev]

Thanks for the video. Is there any limitation for using the Google API?

[@CodingIsFun]

Thanks for watching. Have a look at the following Google Sheets rate limits: developers.google.com/sheets/api/limits I hope it helps! :)

[@gongshow87]

The Login screen would be super helpful, we'd need to keep the created login credentials somewhere else right?

[@CodingIsFun]

Well noted! Yes, you would also need to set up a database to store/retrieve/update/delete the credentials.

[@user-ue8jm2qm9c]

can streamlit makes an option to choose time? i want to have a dropdown to select a data (can be from live or just from csv) ie Week over Week (such as last 7 days), or month over month (previous 30 days), or even a quarter (previous 90 days)? seems like i cant find the option to do so, as a dropdown
