LACLI Spreadsheet
Google Sheet data is first processed with a Google Apps Script:
function doGet(request) {
var spreadsheetId = '....'; // Replace with Google Sheet ID
var sheetName = 'Main'; // Replace with the sheet you want to retrieve data from
// make sure the advanced sheets service is enabled for this script
var dataValues = Sheets.Spreadsheets.Values.get(spreadsheetId, sheetName).values;
// Change the index from 0 to 2 to use row 3 as column headings
var headers = dataValues[2];
var rows = [];
for (var i = 3; i < dataValues.length; i++) { // Start from row 4, as row 3 is the column headings
var row = {};
for (var j = 0; j < headers.length; j++) {
row[headers[j]] = dataValues[i][j];
}
rows.push(row);
}
var output = JSON.stringify(rows);
return ContentService.createTextOutput(output).setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);
}
