Complete the steps described in the rest of this page to create a simple Python command-line application that makes requests to the Google Sheets API. Table of Contents PrerequisitesTo run this quickstart, you need the following prerequisites:
Step 1: Install the Google client libraryTo install the Google client library for Python, run the following command:
For alternate installation options, refer to the Python library's Installation section. Step 2: Configure the sampleTo configure the sample:
Step 3: Run the sampleTo run the sample:
If you have problems, refer to the Troubleshoot the sample section. Troubleshoot the sampleThis section describes some common issues that you may encounter while attempting to run this quickstart and suggests possible solutions. AttributeError: 'Module_six_moves_urllib_parse' object has no attribute 'urlparse'This error can occur in Mac OSX where the default installation of the
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, bytes foundThis error is due to a bug in
Cannot uninstall 'six'When running the "Cannot uninstall 'six'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall." This error occurs on Mac OSX when pip attempts to upgrade the pre-installed This app isn't verifiedIf the OAuth consent screen displays the warning "This app isn't verified," your app is requesting scopes that provide access to sensitive user data. If your application uses sensitive scopes, your app must go through the verification process to remove that warning and other limitations. During the development phase, you can continue past this warning by selecting Advanced > Go to {Project Name} (unsafe). File not found error for credentials.jsonWhen running the sample, you might receive a file not found or no such file error regarding credentials.json. This error occurs when you have not authorized the desktop application credentials as detailed in the Prerequisites section above. To learn how to create credentials for a desktop application, go to Create credentials. Once you create the credentials, make sure the downloaded JSON file is saved as Further readingFor further information on the APIs used in this quickstart, refer to the following:

Google also provides an API for executing most of the operations, which acts as a medium to connect Python to Google Sheets. How do I automate in Google Sheets?Create a macro. On your computer, open a spreadsheet at sheets.google.com.. At the top, click Extensions Macros. Record macro.. At the bottom, choose which type of cell reference you want your macro to use: ... . Complete the task you want to record. ... . Name the macro, create a custom shortcut, and click Save.. Can Python pull data from Google Sheets?We have successfully Read Data from the Google Sheets using Python. For creating the GUI of the project we used Tkinter Module. And we have done a little setup and using oauth2 library, we have established connection with the google sheet. In this way now we know how to read data from a google sheet using Python. |
