; This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

; This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
; Google Sheets scope.

; In this example, Get Google Sheets OAuth2 Access Token, the access
; token was saved to a JSON file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..

; To append values to an existing spreadsheet, our HTTP request body will
; contain JSON in the format of a "ValueRange".  For example, the spreadsheet we'll be
; adding to in this example looks like this:

; image

; The JSON ValueRange for the cells in the above spreadsheet is:
; {
;   "range": "Sheet1!A1:B5",
;   "majorDimension": "ROWS",
;   "values": [
;     [
;       "Item",
;       "Cost"
;     ],
;     [
;       "Wheel",
;       "$20.50"
;     ],
;     [
;       "Door",
;       "$15"
;     ],
;     [
;       "Engine",
;       "$100"
;     ],
;     [
;       "Totals",
;       "$135.50"
;     ]
;   ]
; }

; This example will append 6 cells (3 rows / 2 columns).
; We'll be appending the following:
; 
; "Paint", "$100"
; "Brakes", "$100"
; "New Total", "$335.50"
; 

; The range of cells we'll be appending is A1:B5
; Therefore, the ValueRange JSON we'll be sending in our POST body is:

; {
;   "range": "Sheet1!A1:B5",
;   "majorDimension": "ROWS",
;   "values": [
;     [
;       "Paint",
;       "$100"
;     ],
;     [
;       "Brakes",
;       "$100"
;     ],
;     [
;       "New Total",
;       "$335.50"
