Hi Priyam this side ! Can you please explain a bit in detail what exactly I have to do to contribute in it ?

[fdebrain]

Hi @PriyamKumarKataki and thanks for your interest. This issue is more explorative than the others in the sense that I have a few doubts about the technical feasibility (difficulty is probably high as well). If you're looking to help with this issue, here are a few suggestions:

• Get familiar with the current application (you can try the deployed demo or locally)
• Find online resources/examples about how to connect Streamlit to Google Drive
• Implement it (design and implementation details are up to you)

do you want a button to upload or a completely different page?

I guess a button would be necessary here. It might however open a new tab for authentication purposes. I leave that choice to you, depending on what is feasible or not.

I also thought of an alternative in case uploading from the end user's Google Drive is not feasible: simply use the URL of the Google Sheet, assuming that the shared setting is set to "Anyone with the link".
