# How to install the Lara App for Google Sheets

Lara can be integrated directly into Google Sheets through an official app. This allows you to **translate and evaluate within your spreadsheet using dedicated formulas**. It’s a practical solution for anyone managing multilingual content or working with structured text data that requires translation and quality checks.

Open a new or existing Google Sheet. Click on the **“Extensions”** tab in the top menu and select **“Add-ons” \> “Get add-ons”** to open the Google Workspace Marketplace.

*Note: To use Lara's features in Sheets, you need an active **Pro or Team subscription** on* [*laratranslate.com*](http://laratranslate.com/)*.*

**Troubleshooting: login issues with multiple Google accounts**

If you are signed in to multiple Google accounts in the same browser window, you may encounter login errors when trying to access the Lara for Sheets add-on. Common error messages include:

- "Login window was closed. Please try again."
- "Failed to validate session."

This is a known limitation of Google Apps Script, which does not support multiple simultaneous Google account sessions in the same browser window. It is not specific to Lara.

**To resolve the issue, use one of the following workarounds:**

- Open the Google Sheet in an **Incognito window** and log in with only the Google account you use for Lara.
- **Sign out of all other Google accounts** from your browser, then sign back in with only the account you use for Lara.
- Use a **dedicated Chrome profile** for the Google account associated with your Lara subscription.

For more information on this limitation, refer to Google's official documentation:
