Sheetsu API

Beginner's Pick Development / API Key Intermediate HTTPS
Varies by plan (check documentation)

Overview

Sheetsu (now SheetDB) lets you turn any Google Spreadsheet into a REST API with full CRUD support. This means you can read, create, update, and delete rows in a spreadsheet using standard HTTP requests without writing any backend code. It is ideal for beginners who want a quick data store or CMS without setting up a database.

Beginner Tip

Create a public Google Sheet, connect it via SheetDB to get a unique API URL, then use GET to read rows and POST to add new ones — no server setup required.

Available Data

Use case: Integrate easy google sheets integration data into web and mobile applications
Sheetsu data via REST API

Example Response

JSON Response
{
  "status": "success",
  "data": {
    "result": "Data from Sheetsu",
    "description": "Easy google sheets integration",
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z"
  }
}

Field Reference

id Auto-generated row identifier (if an id column exists in the sheet)
columns (dynamic) Each column header in row 1 of the spreadsheet becomes a JSON key in the response
created Timestamp of when the row was added (if the sheet includes a created column)

Implementation Example

Request
const url = "https://sheetsu.com/";
// Replace headers or query params with the values required by this API.
const response = await fetch(url, {
  headers: {
  "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
  }
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

What Can You Build?

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

401 Unauthorized API key not included or the sheet is not connected to SheetDB
Check your SheetDB dashboard to confirm the sheet is connected and include your API token in the Authorization header if required
404 Not Found Incorrect sheet ID in the URL
Copy the exact API URL from your SheetDB dashboard; the sheet ID is auto-generated
Empty array returned The connected Google Sheet has no data rows or the header row is missing
Ensure your spreadsheet has a header row in row 1 and at least one data row below it

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
