    I want to set the table key to a google sheet key, i tried with smart strings but i didn´t get it to work, i am new to the package so i am sorry if this is simple to do :(

    I already connected my google sheet to unity thanks to the documentation.

    This is an scriptable object, the info is hardcoded, but i want to indicate the key name of my google sheets so unity automatically take the data of that key.

    Something like this if i type or reference of something like that, "play", then unity is gonna take the data of the key "play" from my google sheet for the different locales i have in it.

    Is there any possible way to make it work?

    Google sheets support is editor only, you can't pull the data in a player build.
    If you want to change the LocalizedStringEvent reference at runtime you can do it with
    GetComponent<LocalizedStringEvent>().StringReference.SetReference()

    You could also add a LocalizedString to your scriptable object as a field instead of using a string, then you can set it up in the inspector.
