Google Docs Template Headers with Start Expressions.

Has anyone figured this out yet? I could not get table header rows or page headers working.

Thanks, but no thanks. I simply don't want to code all that stuff. I just need some page headers in gdocs. If not possible, so be it! Nobody reads them anyway.

So a little read time should have been enough for you:

Use Google Docs templates - AppSheet Help

I love their answer.  I get it, they have bigger fish to fry. Hey Appsheet Developers, if you complete your To Do list, have a crack at page formatting. 

"We do not support any of these features because implementing a page layout engine is a lot of work. It is not work that we have done."

It's true, although it's fair enough for a no-code tool anyway IMHO

Just to put this topic to bed. Templates with Start expressions DO NOT support Page Formatting.

Or basically multi-page reports can't have headers and footers since... well, ever
