Just to be sure I understand correctly, even with your Google Sheets integration, the table created in WordPress will not be synced correct?
For example, say I update a value in an already existing cell. Would this update be reflected in the table I created in WordPress? Or would I need to create an entirely new table to show the updated data?
If you create a table linked to an existing Google Sheet, or using the API method, the data that's changed in the sheet will be reflected in wpDataTables. You shouldn't change the structure of the sheet (add, remove, rename, or reorder columns), but the new data, and the modified data within the sheet will be updated in wpDataTables as well.
If you import the sheet, the data will be read in the moment of table creation, and only the data read at that time will be used to create a manual table in wpDataTables. This table type will not be pulling any other info from the sheet that was used for the import.
