Any help would be greatly appropriated.

I have never seen that error, but found this on a App Inventor discussion, you might check (you will have to go into App Inventor and check the text1 object properties.
* The Texting component has to have its GoogleVoiceEnabled property set to true.
* The app has to be packaged and downloaded to the phone -- it won't run from the blocks editor.

the things that need to be correct for the text to get to the spreadsheet are:
1. The spreadsheet ID in the script, check that that correct
2. The Twilio phone number in the App Inventor file needs to be the Twilio phone number
3. The script was run and permissions were allowed for the spreadsheet.

In Twilio, there is a text message log. There, you can tell if your message got to Twilio from the app. If it did, you can see what the message is. It should be all your data separated by commas. If that is correct then it's an issue with the script not sending it to the spreadsheet properly. You need to figure out which part isn't working.

The log Twillo for text messages is empty. Do i need to upgrade the Twillo account?
The spread sheet ID in the script is correct according to the number on my spread sheet
The Twillo # in the app is changed to match the number i got.
The script was run to give permission.

I do get a message on my phone from Verizon every time i hit the send key in the app
"5555555555 is a land-line# Reply Y to send all TXT messages to this # as voice messages for 0.25/msg"

Thanks for the help.

"The Twillo # in the app is changed to match the number i got." For some reason it didn't save it. It must be dialing the default number, because 555-5555 was the dummy number I put in. I didn't upgrade our Twilio account, so I don't think that's the issue. If you have an older version of the app the phone number is in the Submit button as well as the global variable phoneNumber. (that was fixed in version 5)

p.s. I have fixed a few other problems and after some more testing I'm going to be sharing a new version, hopefully later this week. It fixes some glitches with the timer and data entry on the spreadsheet, much smoother.

Great news I no longer get the text message sent back to my phone. After changing the variable "initialize global phonenumber" to the correct Twillo # Twillo now gets the message. Now I have a Twillo message log but for ever message i get a error "Error: 11200 - HTTP retrieval failure" in Twillo.

Thanks,

I have never seen that, but look it up gave me "An 11200 error is an indicator of a connection failure between Twilio and your service. When Twilio requests a page from your server, we wait a maximum of 15 seconds for a response. A connection failure will occur if no response is returned in that time."
I would double check the url for the Google spreadsheet in the script and make sure that you run the script to get that authorization. Just a guess.

I don't think anyone has asked this yet, but if they have, sorry for the repeat.

I know that with Google Forums, every time you submit an answer, it creates a new line. This messes up any formulas you have in the document. Does this happen here or not?

Version 6 is posted.

Thanks to all the teams that have tried this, and given feedback, it is making it better!



Changes:
-moved the foul and technical foul buttons to the description area. During the match it's too hard to keep track of fouls (ref) and the bot. After the match when they are announced it can be tallied or entered into the comments area.can be added along with the other robot descriptive data in the checkboxes.
-the previous version used commas to separate the data into the columns of the spreadsheet. This version uses '~' (tilde) since it's too easy to enter a comma in the comments section, and end up with the data going into multiple columns.
-added an "End Match" button. This stops the clock, and sends the final match data to the spreadsheet
-timer glitch was fixed (timer was continuing until the start cycle was pressed again. It's easy to forget to start the cycle, so now it's done automatically). The timer RESETS and a new cycle is started as soon as a high or low goal is scored or the End Cycle button is pressed. The timer STOPS when the End Match button is pressed.
-when submit data is pressed, data is entered into the descriptive data spreadsheet sheet 3, and the comments data sheet 4
-if End match, goals and end cycle buttons nothing happens unless a cycle has been started.If the match is going, and those buttons are pressed it sends the cycle data to sheet 2 and starts a new cycle. End cycle also sends the data and starts a new match. End match sends the data but does not start a new match.
also
-fixed foul reset (was not resetting to 0), reset start position
-events are general (wk#, championship)
-changed "match time" label to "cycle time"

please note: When setting up a new version of the script, you need to create a new project. Once you run, authorize and publish the script, you need to make a new app in Twilio with the url of the new script. Twilio caches the script url so this is the only way to get around Twilio using the old script.

This app simply adds a line of data to the spreadsheet. It does not have any formulas in the spreadsheet. This app is for collection of data. You could download the data into an excel spreadsheet for analysis.
Does this answer your question?

Please note the version 6 is available on our website or here on Chief Delphi.
