Google Sheets - Create a New Spreadsheet

See more Google Sheets Examples

Demonstrates how to create a new and empty spreadsheet. Rust

// 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..
let json_token = chilkat::JsonObject::new();

// Create the following JSON:
// The JSON code can be generated using this online tool:  Generate JSON create code

//   ],
//   "properties": {
