Hi,

One alternative to loading Google spreadsheets is using a link in the following format:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kIpJZ148hMFxN3nGPPKBhbQyov734um6ahBcMNG1xD0/export?format=xl...

This format allows you to export as xlsx. The document needs to be shared as anyone has the link can access the document.

Thank you so much @omerfaruk ! I have tried a couple solutions from various posts but only yours still work for now in 2021! My QlikView can load more than 100 lines (mine is 362 rows) from Google Sheets finally. Great Work!!!
