Sheet2API Bridge.
Zero-Config REST API Gateway
Democratizing Data Access: The Sheet2API Protocol
In the modern "No-Code" ecosystem, the ability to rapidly prototype applications is limited by backend complexity. Sheet2API eliminates this barrier by transforming a standard Google Sheet into a fully functional JSON REST API. This serverless architecture allows developers to use a spreadsheet as a headless CMS, powering websites, mobile apps, and industrial dashboards with zero infrastructure cost.
Technical Architecture and Security
Unlike third-party services that require you to share your data with an external server, Sheet2API operates on a **Local-First Model**. The backend code (provided below) is deployed within your own Google Workspace account. This ensures that your proprietary data never leaves the Google Cloud perimeter, satisfying strict **Data Sovereignty** requirements for enterprise usage.
Backend Source Code (Google Apps Script):
function doGet(e) {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const sheet = ss.getSheets()[0];
const data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
const headers = data.shift();
const json = data.map(row => {
let obj = {};
headers.forEach((h, i) => obj[h] = row[i]);
return obj;
});
return ContentService.createTextOutput(JSON.stringify(json))
.setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);
}
function doPost(e) {
const p = JSON.parse(e.postData.contents);
const sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheets()[0];
sheet.appendRow(Object.values(p));
return ContentService.createTextOutput("Success");
}
