Troubleshooting Guide: SAI Formula Not Working in SheetXAI - #NAME Error

The Problem

When using SheetXAI, you may notice that the SAI formula doesn't automatically appear in the formula suggestions when you type "=S" in a cell.

Understanding the Terminology

Before we dive into the solution, let's clarify:

• SAI: Refers to the formula functionality (typed as =SAI in cells)
• SheetXAI: Refers to the chatbot assistant

Why This Happens

Google Sheets doesn't allow add-ons to automatically integrate custom formulas into your spreadsheets for security reasons. This means the SAI formula needs to be manually activated for each new spreadsheet you create.

How to Fix It

Follow these simple steps to activate the SAI formula:

1. Click on Extensions in the top menu
2. Select SheetXAI from the dropdown
3. Click Activate SAI Formula

Important Notes

• You only need to activate the formula once per spreadsheet
• After activation, the formula will work in all sheets within that spreadsheet
• Once activated, typing "=SAI" will show "SAI - Assistant for Google Sheets" in the formula suggestions

This quick fix will ensure you can use all of SheetXAI's powerful formula capabilities in your Google Sheets.
