I’m publishing as a CSV a spreadsheet I’m maintaining in Google Sheets, to serve as a data source for other people/systems. It’s a simple 4-column data structure, resulting from a complicated calculation inside the spreadsheet.
Once about every 3 calls to this published URL, instead of good contents like this

I get this
#VALUE!
It happens regardless of whether I use a browser, curl, wget or any other type of client. Also happens when the spreadsheet tab is published as a web page: every nth refresh produces a “#VALUE” error in the top cell even though no underlying data are changed. Another observation is that it happens more often if I request the data rapidly in sequence.
Any ideas how to prevent this from happening?
