Custom Button Name from Google Sheet

Is it possible for a button name to be generated from data on a Google Sheet?

Sure, assuming that the Google Sheets module can send a value to a variable…

I am really struggling just to make a connection to Google Sheets. I am following the directions, but I continue to get an error when logging into Google. Step 4 “4. Copy and paste the Client ID, and Client Secret, and Redirect URI, into the config below. Click save, and then proceed to Google Sheets Auth and authenticate with the app”. But when I click the Google Sheets Auth link and log in I get this error: “Access blocked: Companion has not completed the Google verification process”.

Sorry, I don’t know much about the Google Sheets module, you’ll probably have to ask Jeff your question.
The module should have a “?” icon in beside it’s name to get help. Alternately, you can try:
Google Sheets Module on Github
or
Companion group on Facebook

Even though I can’t make a connection it appears there is only 4 variables, none about changing the button name to data within the spreadsheet. So I don’t think the connection would work anyway.

I’m using the vMix connection, with success, but wanting the button name to select data from a Google Sheet. Trying to do a variable in the Button String Text but not having any luck.

Follow my suggestions to get help with Google Sheets. His module might have help built into it. Do you know how to find the “?” I’m speaking of?

Found it, thanks.
