Missing column headers in Google Sheets

Restore a renamed or removed Google Sheets header so Funnel can identify the configured column.

Problem summary

Funnel cannot import a configured column if you rename or remove its header from the Google Sheet.

​

Error message or symptoms

The column header 'Impressions' could not be found in the sheet. Has it been renamed or removed?

​

The error message shows the missing header name.

​

When does this occur

  • You rename a column header after you configure the data source.

  • You remove a configured column or its header from the sheet.

​

Root cause

Funnel uses the header text to identify each configured column. Funnel cannot find the column if you change or remove that text.

​

Solution

  1. Restore the original header exactly as it appeared when you configured the data source.

    ​

  2. Retry the import.

    ​

  3. If you cannot restore the header or cannot edit the configuration, contact Funnel Support to reconfigure the data source.
