  • In this video, we'll be making our own DIY API using Google Sheets and Google Apps Script. This is an easy way to make your own database without a backend server.
    The link to my example API:

    An example search using my API:

    Excellent video. It was very useful. Every other video on this topic showed this by third party websites and requests are very limited. And no one other then you showed this without using such websites and also explained the whole code beautifully. Thank You for sharing your knowledge. Keep making such informative videos.

    Coming late to this video but appreciate the walk through! Is there a way to include the column header info as tags for each row of data? Or do you have another video where you get into how to do that?

      I've identified the problem on my own. First, you need to log out of all your Google accounts. Then, the first account you log back into will be set as your default account. After that, deploy with "everyone," and it should work right away.

    Hi, I literally copied every code of yours without error, and after publishing it as web page, I copied the url then pasted it, and got the following message: "Exception: Cannot convert 'function () { [native code] }' to int. (line 9, file "Code")" . Note: my sheet contains only two column of data just like yours.

    • @hossainabeer

      and running the script, I got the message in terminal: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'parameter' of undefined"

      the code:
      function doGet(request){
      var query = request.parameter.q;
      var parameters = 2;
      var sheetname = "Sheet1";
      var doc = SpreadsheetApp.openById(PropertiesService.getScriptProperties().getProperty("key"));
      var sheet = doc.getSheetByName(sheetname);
      var lastrow = sheet.getLastRow;
      var rows = [];
      var range = sheet.getRange(2, 1, lastrow, parameters);
      var values = range.getValues();
      for(var row in values){
      rows.push([]);
      for(var col in values[row]){
      rows[row].push(values[row][col]);
      }
      }
      if(query != null){
      var rowstoreturn = rows.filter(a => a[0] == query);

    If anyone is looking for the Apps Script code from this video, I posted it here (plus a few additional comments): gist.github.com/adamjohnson/3d1e0d6349df8ba1ccf1e45c6d8da5d1
    Google Apps Script recently updated their UI. FWIW, I couldn't get this code to work, but I was working with different data. Curious if anyone here can get it working? Let us know in the comments below.
