Hi all,

This is an odd one. I'm running some Python using V4 of the Sheets API which successfully clones the first sheet in a spreadsheet to the same spreadsheet, but keeps throwing 503s when trying to copy the next sheet (index: 1.) 

I've checked the sheet that's causing problems and there are no special data validation rules or null values etc. that might be causing this. I'm nowhere near the API quota limits either. Has anyone seen anything like this?

Just so I know I'm not going crazy, I tried it on the API Explorer site and it 503s there too. Very unusual.

RESOLVED: I had to explicitly pass the sheetId, and not assume the indexId would be enough.
