I've written a basic extension for Google Sheets and tried to go through the "Deploy as Sheets Web Add-on" wizard to deploy my extension for my own private use. However, I can't seem to find a way to search for the extension in Sheets.
I have deployed to the Chrome Web Store and can see the item (albeit with ADD TO CHROME greyed out, my first hint I've done something wrong) but when I try to search within Sheets "Add-ons" > "Get add-ons" performing a search for my add-on returns nothing.
I'm guessing I've deployed incorrectly but having gone over the documentation I still find myself at a loss:
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/add-ons/publish
Any hints as to what I'm doing wrong?
Also if any more information is required let me know
It's set to private. If you want to see it in the search, you have to set it to public. You can read more of this in Publishing an Add-on.

I created a trivia app in Google Actions following this link. I followed all the steps but when trying to submit for production (officially launch the Action to all the Google Assistant users) I get the following error:
I double checked all the constrains they suggest in the tutorial (like using photos of a specific size, having proper Privacy Policy and Terms of Service , checking that the app name is not taken etc).
One thing to mention: this is not a network issue, as I tried from multiple PCs and networks.
Is there a log file where I can look and pinpoint the issue? Or somebody else encountered this issue?
As suggested I've reached out Google support team (https://developers.google.com/actions/support/) . They answered really fast.
The fix was simple: make another copy of the spreadsheet used and try again.
My question is simple, how do I make a certain page be find-able by a specific keyword.
cse it's working fine it just don't manage to find everything he supposed to.
Google custom works like google search, manipulating results may not be possible, however, check out the synonyms tab in google.com/cse.
Say your users search for MBA you can configure it to show results for Master of Business Administration
Is there a way to search for text in the documentation pane of Eclipse?
E.g. see the attached screenshot showing some Android SDK documentation:
and see this screenshot showing the Search menu:
I can't see how you can do a search. And Cmd F doesn't seem to do anything either.
This is basically a web browser pane. Sadly it is quite limited in functionality, you can't search within the view (and of course not within the documentation database instead of the currently shown document).
So the work around is to open the document in a complete, external browser. In this case it is easy to find the document (http://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html) but sometimes it might be annoying to find the URL as this limited web browser view doesn't even tell it to you or gives you a possibility to get it.
If it was about site search and not searching withing the page and if the site doesn't offer a site search (this one does) then of course you can use Google with a site:developer.android.com parameter; similar for other search engines.
I am a developer looking for the best way to set up different schools with their own custom, private extensions (ie School A should be the only one with access to Extension A). Theoretically, I am aware that there are a few ways to get a custom, private extension pushed out on a domain:
Host the .crx on a server and click "Specify a Custom App" in the management console.
Create a Domain App by uploading a zip to the Chrome Web Store
Upload the extension from my developer account to the Chrome Web Store and publish to a single "trusted tester," or make it unlisted
Option (1), hosting the .crx, has not been working. I am not sure why, but the extension is simply not pushing out. I link directly to the crx file, which has the right ID and MIME type, still, no dice. If anyone has any tips or suggestions for getting this to work, I would love to hear them!
Option (2), having the school create a domain app, seems a bit inefficient because it requires all schools to upload their own zip. So essentially I would have to email a zip file to the school, and have them publish it. All updates to the extension will also require a similar process, so this doesn't seem ideal.
I doubt that option (3) would work. If I published to the admin as a "trusted tester", I don't think that the other people in the domain would be able to access it. If it is unlisted, I do not know how an admin could find it in the Chrome Web Store dialog. Also, I would rather avoid security through obscurity.
Has anyone had success with hosting the extension and using the Specify a Custom App feature? Any other suggestions for getting a Custom Extension pushed out by the management console? Thanks so much!
To get option (1) working from the management console, it is important to specify the correct extension id and a valid update xml url (not a crx).
One useful feature Google offers that you can use is getting the extension id and the version from the update request.
For instance, you can create a update.php file that outputs an xml file specific to each extension and version. See http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/autoupdate.html under "Advanced Usage".

I installed the Rest Console extension onto Chrome. I can't use this Rest Console for anything, because the only fields that accept text are 'Request URL' and 'Request Method'.
I ask here as there is no resources or community accessible for even simple instructions on how this extension works, and there are likely members of this community who have used this extension.
Use the Postman - REST Client it works perfectly!
your_url_to_post: Fill the URL
your_json_param: The name of the param that you'll pass you json
your_json_data: The json content
Don't forget to select x-www-form-urlencoded if you'll do a post

You should be able to enter text in the other field if you tick the checkbox associated to the field first.
I started having a similar issue myself (Forms wouldnt let me input data I could click them but thats as far as it went) across a lot of web pages to include my own php game and I know the form code hasnt changed at all before this issue started. I came across a article of someone else having a similar issue themselves that I was having and someone said that they needed position: relative on their forms that are not given specific instructions on positioning when dealing with google chrome. I have since made this change myself at www.immoralattack.com and the issue has stopped on that site but still continues on many others so its pretty safe to say that is the issue.
Its only happening on the dev build of chrome for me atleast and I hope this isnt something they plan on implementing on live or this will mess up alot of websites.
Also try turning off auto fill from chrome if its on, while I was looking for this bug I found alot of similar bugs but they delt with auto fill being on.
