Before you start, have these handy
- ◆A Google account — free. Your app and its data live in your own Google Drive.
- ◆Your license key — the one you received when you purchased.
- ◆A Stripe account — optional, only if you want card payments. You can add it later.
1
Make your own copy
- Click the setup link below. Google asks "Make a copy?" — click Make a copy.
- A copy of the app now lives in your Google Drive. It's yours — your data never touches anyone else's.
2
Publish your app one time
- Open the top menu: Extensions → Apps Script.
- In the editor, click Deploy → New deployment.
- Choose type Web app.
- Set Execute as: Me and Who has access: Anyone, then Deploy.
- Authorize when asked and click Allow — you're allowing your own copy to run for you.
- Copy the Web app URL it shows you (it ends in
/exec) — you'll paste it in the next step.
Seeing "Google hasn't verified this app"? That's normal for your own script. Click Advanced → Go to (your project) to continue.
3
Get your private app link
- Go back to your spreadsheet tab.
- Click Magic Manager → Get my app link.
- Paste the Web app URL you copied in Step 2 (you only do this once).
- Copy the link it gives you and bookmark it — this is how you open your app every day.
Keep this link private — anyone who has it can open your app.
4
Activate your license
- In the spreadsheet, click Magic Manager → Enter license key.
- Paste your key and click OK. You'll see "License activated."
If you open your app before activating, it shows an "Activate" screen — you can paste your key there too.
5
Make it yours
- Open your app link from Step 3.
- Tap the ⚙ Setup tab at the bottom.
- Fill in your business name, contact info, contract details, and payment options, then tap Save settings.
Logo tip: upload a PNG or JPG (square works best). Avoid SVG and iPhone HEIC files. If you paste a link instead, it must be a direct, public image URL — Drive/Dropbox share links won't show.
Your app, your contracts, and the page your clients see now show your brand.
6
Turn on card payments optional
- In the spreadsheet, click Magic Manager → Enter Stripe secret key.
- Paste your Stripe secret key (starts with
sk_) and click OK.
You're live! ☊
Bookmark your app link and start adding leads. A great first test: add a lead, generate its contract, and open the client sign link to see exactly what your customers will see.
Quick fixes
- Link shows a Google "Sorry, unable to open the file" or "Not Found" page.
- That's an old or unpublished deployment URL. In the Apps Script editor open Deploy → Manage deployments and copy the Web app URL shown there, then run Magic Manager → Reset app URL followed by Get my app link to paste the correct one.
- App says "This page isn't available."
- Run Magic Manager → Get my app link and use that link — it includes your private key.
- App shows an "Activate" screen.
- Enter your license key (Step 4).
- "Card payment isn't set up yet."
- Add your Stripe secret key (Step 6).
- Changed something and it didn't update?
- Reload your app link.
