Could you elaborate on this subject with more details? What is the enhancement? I m not following this announcement.

@takuya_miyai

Maybe it means that in order to connect Google Data Studio to an AppSheet app’s data, previously you had to be the AppSheet app’s creator (i.e., the app is in your own AppSheet account), whereas as of this release you can now do that even if you’re only an app editor (i.e., the app is shared from the app creator’s AppSheet account to your AppSheet account for co-authoring)?

Will wait and see the clarification by them.

HI @Koichi_Tsuji and @dbaum :
That is exactly right! When you share your app with another user as an editor (give them Edit definition permissions), they can now connect to and use Google Data Studio to analyze their AppSheet data.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions! Apologies for the lack of clarity. I will update the entry with this additional detail.

Thanks for reaching out!

Liz
