Simple interface for working with Google Sheets.
Features:
- Open a spreadsheet by title, key or URL.
- Read, write, and format cell ranges.
- Sharing and access control.
- Batching updates.
pip install gspreadRequirements: Python 3.8+.
-
Start using gspread
import gspread
gc = gspread.service_account()
# Open a sheet from a spreadsheet in one go
wks = gc.open("Where is the money Lebowski?").sheet1
# Update a range of cells using the top left corner address
wks.update([[1, 2], [3, 4]], "A1")
# Or update a single cell
wks.update_acell("B42", "it's down there somewhere, let me take another look.")
# Format the header
wks.format('A1:B1', {'textFormat': {'bold': True}})Python 3.7 is end-of-life. gspread v6 requires a minimum of Python 3.8.
The first two arguments (values & range_name) have swapped (to range_name & values). Either swap them (works in v6 only), or use named arguments (works in v5 & v6).
As well, values can no longer be a list, and must be a 2D array.
- file.sheet1.update([["new", "values"]])
+ file.sheet1.update([["new", "values"]]) # unchanged
- file.sheet1.update("B2:C2", [["54", "55"]])
+ file.sheet1.update([["54", "55"]], "B2:C2")
# or
+ file.sheet1.update(range_name="B2:C2", values=[["54", "55"]])See More Migration Guide
v6 uses hexadecimal color representation. Change all colors to hex. You can use the compatibility function gspread.utils.convert_colors_to_hex_value() to convert a dictionary to a hex string.
- tab_color = {"red": 1, "green": 0.5, "blue": 1}
+ tab_color = "#FF7FFF"
file.sheet1.update_tab_color(tab_color)- age = spreadsheet.lastUpdateTime
+ age = spreadsheet.get_lastUpdateTime()In v6 you can now only get all sheet records, using Worksheet.get_all_records(). The method Worksheet.get_records() has been removed. You can get some records using your own fetches and combine them with gspread.utils.to_records().
+ from gspread import utils
all_records = spreadsheet.get_all_records(head=1)
- some_records = spreadsheet.get_all_records(head=1, first_index=6, last_index=9)
- some_records = spreadsheet.get_records(head=1, first_index=6, last_index=9)
+ header = spreadsheet.get("1:1")[0]
+ cells = spreadsheet.get("6:9")
+ some_records = utils.to_records(header, cells)In version 5 there are many warnings to mark deprecated feature/functions/methods.
They can be silenced by setting the GSPREAD_SILENCE_WARNINGS environment variable to 1
gc = gspread.service_account(filename="google_credentials.json")
spreadsheet = gc.open_by_key("{{key}}")
properties = spreadsheet.fetch_sheet_metadata()["sheets"][0]["properties"]
- worksheet = gspread.Worksheet(spreadsheet, properties)
+ worksheet = gspread.Worksheet(spreadsheet, properties, spreadsheet.id, gc.http_client)# You can open a spreadsheet by its title as it appears in Google Docs
sh = gc.open('My poor gym results') # <-- Look ma, no keys!
# If you want to be specific, use a key (which can be extracted from
# the spreadsheet's url)
sht1 = gc.open_by_key('0BmgG6nO_6dprdS1MN3d3MkdPa142WFRrdnRRUWl1UFE')
# Or, if you feel really lazy to extract that key, paste the entire url
sht2 = gc.open_by_url('https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Bm...FE&hl')sh = gc.create('A new spreadsheet')
# But that new spreadsheet will be visible only to your script's account.
# To be able to access newly created spreadsheet you *must* share it
# with your email. Which brings us to…sh.share('[email protected]', perm_type='user', role='writer')# Select worksheet by index. Worksheet indexes start from zero
worksheet = sh.get_worksheet(0)
# By title
worksheet = sh.worksheet("January")
# Most common case: Sheet1

val = worksheet.get('B1').first()
# With coords
val = worksheet.cell(1, 2).value# Get all values from the first row
values_list = worksheet.row_values(1)
# Get all values from the first column
values_list = worksheet.col_values(1)from gspread.utils import GridRangeType
list_of_lists = worksheet.get(return_type=GridRangeType.ListOfLists)Receive only the cells with a value in them.
>>> worksheet.get("A1:B4")
[['A1', 'B1'], ['A2']]Receive a rectangular array around the cells with values in them.
>>> worksheet.get("A1:B4", pad_values=True)
[['A1', 'B1'], ['A2', '']]Receive an array matching the request size regardless of if values are empty or not.
>>> worksheet.get("A1:B4", maintain_size=True)
[['A1', 'B1'], ['A2', ''], ['', ''], ['', '']]# Find a cell with exact string value
cell = worksheet.find("Dough")
print("Found something at R%sC%s" % (cell.row, cell.col))
# Find a cell matching a regular expression

# Update a range
worksheet.update([[1, 2], [3, 4]], 'A1:B2')
# Update multiple ranges at once
worksheet.batch_update([{
'range': 'A1:B2',

}, {
'range': 'J42:K43',
'values': [[1, 2], [3, 4]],
}])from gspread.utils import ValueRenderOption
# Get formatted cell value as displayed in the UI
>>> worksheet.get("A1:B2")
[['$12.00']]
# Get unformatted value from the same cell range
>>> worksheet.get("A1:B2", value_render_option=ValueRenderOption.unformatted)
[[12]]
# Get formula from a cell
>>> worksheet.get("C2:D2", value_render_option=ValueRenderOption.formula)
[['=1/1024']]
### Add data validation to a range
```python
import gspread
from gspread.utils import ValidationConditionType
# Restrict the input to greater than 10 in a single cell
worksheet.add_validation(
'A1',
ValidationConditionType.number_greater,
[10],
strict=True,
inputMessage='Value must be greater than 10',
)
# Restrict the input to Yes/No for a specific range with dropdown
worksheet.add_validation(
'C2:C7',
ValidationConditionType.one_of_list,
['Yes',
'No',]
showCustomUi=True
