Troubleshooting Google Sheets API Issues After Cocoa Pods Update
If you are a developer working with Google Sheets and using Swift in your application, you might have encountered some frustrating challenges after updating Cocoa Pods. Specifically, numerous users have reported issues where their Google Sheets API commands suddenly stop working after a Cocoa Pods upgrade, leading to problems such as losing the ability to write, format, or create new sheets.
Identifying the Problem
In the case shared by a user named Michael, he faced a significant setback after creating a copy of his app for side development. After a hard reset of his computer and reinstalling everything, he found that his previously functional application could no longer execute commands used to interact with Google Sheets. The error message, "nw_protocol_get_quic_image_block_invoke dlopen libquic failed", surfaced during Google login, raising concerns about a connection issue.
After delving into the changes required from GTMOAuth2 to GTMAppAuth, Michael was able to implement the authorization successfully. Still, critical functions for writing to sheets and other operations remained broken.
Solutions to Restore Google Sheets API Functionality
Here’s a structured approach to diagnose and potentially resolve the loss of functionality in your Google Sheets API commands:
1. Review Dependency Updates
Check the Change Log: Whenever you update Cocoa Pods, make sure to review the change log for any breaking changes or deprecated classes that may affect your code.
Update Functions: If you recently transitioned from GTMOAuth2 to GTMAppAuth, ensure that your implementation reflects any necessary changes. This may involve modifications to your authorization and authentication methods.
2. Debugging Your Code
Error Handling: Improve your error handling in the API calls to capture and log specific errors returned.
Functionality Testing: Temporarily comment out your code and introduce each functionality back one by one. This can help isolate which part of the code is failing.
3. Verify Requests are Built Correctly
Here’s a brief recap of the three primary functions outlined in Michael's code:
Write to Sheet Function
The function is responsible for appending values to a sheet:

Make sure the spreadsheetId, range, and other variables are correctly defined and initialized.
Merge Cell Function
This method merges specified cells in the sheet:

Ensure the range creation is correctly executed without errors.
Clear Sheet Data Function
This function clears data from a specified range:

Confirm that the range is valid and formatted correctly.
4. Community Engagement
If you've tried the steps above and are still facing issues, don't hesitate to engage with the developer community.
StackOverflow: Search for threads similar to your issue or ask a new question, providing detailed information.
GitHub Issues: If the problem might relate to the libraries themselves, check the GitHub repositories for any known issues.
Conclusion
Troubleshooting Google Sheets API integration after a Cocoa Pods update can be challenging, but with careful debugging and community support, you can regain your app’s functionality. Remember, documenting your errors and keeping track of changes to dependencies is invaluable. If you find resolution, do share your insights back with the community—it could help fellow developers in similar situations!
