(Ruby) Google Sheets - Append Values to an Existing Spreadsheet
Appends values to an existing Google spreadsheet.
require 'chilkat'
# 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..
jsonToken = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
success = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleSheets.json")
if (jsonToken.HasMember("access_token") == false)
print "No access token found." + "\n";
exit
end
http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()
http.put_AuthToken(jsonToken.stringOf("access_token"))
# 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:
#
# 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"
# ]
# ]
# }
json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.UpdateString("range","Sheet1!A1:B5")
json.UpdateString("majorDimension","ROWS")
json.put_I(0)
json.put_J(1)
json.UpdateString("values[i][j]","Paint")
json.put_J(1)
json.UpdateString("values[i][j]","$100")
json.put_I(1)
json.put_J(0)

json.put_I(2)
json.put_J(0)
json.UpdateString("values[i][j]","Totals")
json.put_J(1)
json.UpdateString("values[i][j]","$335.50")

print json.emit() + "\n";
# Send the POST to:
# https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/{spreadsheetId}/values/{range}:append?valueInputOption=USER_ENTERED

exit
end
print "response status code = " + resp.get_StatusCode().to_s() + "\n";
print "response JSON = " + resp.bodyStr() + "\n";
# Sample output:
#
# response status code = 200
# response JSON = {
# "spreadsheetId": "1_SO2L-Y6nCayNpNppJLF0r9yHB2UnaCleGCKeE4O0SA",
