    All-in-one spreadsheet importing, reporting, and API code for developers

    No one likes spending all week trying to build spreadsheet capabilities for their business. (“Whoever endorsed me for Excel skills on LinkedIn was just being nice.”)

    You want to build a system to manage all your spreadsheet data, but using a bunch of different single-purpose solutions won’t help you tackle the big picture.

    Want a platform that makes it easy to build spreadsheet importing, save form data to your spreadsheets, and set up auto-reporting?

    Meet API Spreadsheets.

    TL;DR

    Build a spreadsheet importer for your users that saves their files to Google Drive, AWS S3, Dropbox, or your database
    Alternative to: Sheetsu and Flatfile
    Use your spreadsheets as an API or database with preset code and customizable features like email reporting

    At-a-glance

    Overview

    API Spreadsheets is a suite of developer tools that lets you build spreadsheet importing, reading, reporting, and other complex capabilities in your applications.

    API Spreadsheets streamlines the process of connecting files from customers, clients, and internal teams, so all your data is in one place.

    Adjust settings across categories like column names, colors, and password protection, and the platform will automatically configure imported files to your preferences.

    You’ll be able to automatically generate a custom URL and pre-written code that you can plug directly into apps and websites.

    Plus, you can specify storage locations for each uploaded file, so they’re always accessible via cloud platforms and the API Spreadsheets site.

    Spreadsheet importer

    Select where imported spreadsheets should be stored and access them from your team’s preferred cloud destinations.

    Use your spreadsheets as a database and collect user-submitted info through an API that automatically updates to your connected spreadsheets.

    The tool generates a REST API for each imported file, which means you’ll get a URL that you can use to create, read, add to, and delete from each spreadsheet.

    Not a developer? Don’t sweat it. API Spreadsheets makes it easy for non-programmers to use APIs using pre-written code you can copy and paste.

    Plus, you can automatically generate code in standard programming languages like Javascript, Python, Ruby, and PHP.

    Quickstart code interface

    Use your local, cloud-based, or user-imported spreadsheets as a database that stays up-to-date with forms on your site.

    API Spreadsheets’ auto-reporting feature makes it easy to keep your team updated with just a few clicks.

    Create a custom send schedule for your reports, selecting the times of day and days of the week you want email reports to go out.

    Plus, you can set your own subject line, body copy, and recipient lists—and every email report will automatically include the corresponding file as an attachment.

    API Spreadsheets also lets you set up teams within your organization and manage spreadsheet access and reporting visibility by role.

    Auto-reporting interface

    Keep your team in the loop with relevant information delivered to their inboxes on a consistent schedule.

    You can also streamline the process of organizing data from teams across your company, allowing anyone to upload, map, clean, and save spreadsheets.

    Generate and share a custom upload URL with different departments, then use it to collect revenue numbers and other key performance data from each part of your business.

    You can also use the tool’s pre-built code to create a form on your website or app that stores contact information for sales leads and automatically updates with new submissions.

    Plus, API Spreadsheets integrates with major cloud storage platforms, so you can upload from and store in Google Sheets, AWS S3, Dropbox, and your database.

    Upload from local file to API Spreadsheets

    API Spreadsheets lets you import from and store in your preferred destinations to make the management process super simple.

    Figuring out how to build a database from your spreadsheets is like putting together a Wayfair desk blindfolded. (“Don’t judge my process, I’m feeling my way through it.”)

    API Spreadsheets gives you a suite of intuitive tools and pre-written code to optimize your spreadsheet-driven work—without wasting any time.

    Make your spreadsheets work for you.

    From the founders

    February 15, 2022

    Hi Sumo-lings, I am Adhaar, the primary developer behind API Spreadsheets. 💻

    This product started off as a set of python libraries I built for myself when working as a freelance developer. I would use the libraries to quickly build websites, and any other spreadsheet related features.

    My clients loved how insanely fast I was delivering results! Little did they know, it was all due to these libraries.

    I then decided to build the libraries into a product and release it to my developer friends, on Hacker News, and Product Hunt. The product started getting used by all sorts of programmers for all sorts of use cases.

    Some of these use cases include:

    Saving data from Web Forms to spreadsheets or Google Sheets

    Collecting spreadsheets from users on your own website or apps

    Using databases as an API without building a backend

    Prototyping websites rapidly

    Using spreadsheet data for parts of your applications

    Auto emailing spreadsheets to your teams

    Sharing spreadsheet data easily in their organization

    And many more.

    Since releasing the product, we have followed a feedback oriented building process driven largely by our customers and users.

    These are few things our users like about the tool😊

    1. Built for Developers, By Developers: You can instantly Read, Create, Update and Delete data from your Spreadsheets. We have built a subset of SQL style querying to make all this easier. There are also pre-written guides and code snippets in Javascript, Python, Ruby and PHP so you can truly get started right away.

    2. No-Code Custom Spreadsheet Importer: Collect spreadsheets from your users by creating a fully customizable spreadsheet importer to host on your own website or apps. Or use the one hosted on API Spreadsheets. It takes minutes to configure the importer, and copy and paste the code needed to use it.

    3. Local Files, Google Sheets, Dropbox Spreadsheets, AWS S3 files, Postgres, and MySQL supported: This was super important to us. We believe to be truly useful you should be able to integrate and update spreadsheets and data from anywhere you have files. This is a non-trivial task, especially within a team. But with API Spreadsheets, you can literally drag and drop your local files, choose your spreadsheet using a File Picker GUI, or query your database and get started right away.

    Basically, if there is anything spreadsheet related you need to build in your application or website, API Spreadsheets either supports it or will support it in the future.
