API Connector is a Google Sheets add-on that extracts data from APIs directly into Google Sheets. No coding required! Just enter the request URL and API key to connect and view API responses in a spreadsheet.

Hi Product Hunters! I'm Ana, a freelance analytics consultant. I made this add-on after receiving a lot of client requests for spreadsheets and dashboards displaying data from platforms like Shopify, Mailchimp, Harvest, VWO, etc. This usually meant searching for an existing integration, and, if none existed (this was usually the case), either manually exporting out data or writing a custom script to extract data from the platform APIs. The API Connector greatly accelerates and simplifies the process of getting API data into Sheets. There's no code required, just enter the API URL and credentials to import API data to Sheets. It's free for basic use, with paid upgrade option available for scheduling and other features. I know spreadsheet users are super creative, so I'm excited to see what people do with this. There have been 140+ installations since I released it last week, and I have a lot of ideas for future development. Looking forward to your feedback.

This is awesome! I can edit data from the api with a sheet, can also create a mashup of multiple apis thank you @a_kravitz :)
Ana Kravitz
@alistair_holmes Yeah! I hope you build something great, let me know if I can help with anything.

@ryanstweeting Awesome! Let me know if I can help with anything. And if you're interested, https://mixedanalytics.com/knowl... contains my documentation and detailed guides for accessing a bunch of popular APIs.

Can you build IFTTT integration? That would probably solve some of the challenges you have come across and would greatly expand functionality.
Ana Kravitz
@olivermccloud Hi Oliver, thank you for the suggestion. IFTTT is an awesome service! However, as far as I know, IFTTT doesn't provide data themselves, they provide a protocol that enables triggers and actions based off other providers' APIs. What kind of integration do you have in mind?

Awesome product. Integrated an API in 2 minutes with. this. Too good to be true :)

@mohitify Nice!

Would love to see OAuth option for APIs like meetup now that keys are not allowed.
Ana Kravitz
@aaronlintz The next version will have POST support, OAuth is on the list for a future future version :)

Hi, will this work with API key?
Ana Kravitz
@krishnaprasath_s Sure, you can input your API key into API Connector within the API URL path field or in the Headers section.

Hi, great job ! I get this for my api: { "last_modified": "2019-09-01T18:46:58-04:00", "user_id": 285229582, "total_amount": 12049.62, "pending_to_review": 0, "available_balance": 9604.49, "unavailable_balance": 2445.13, "currency_id": "ARS", "tags": [], "unavailable_balance_by_reason": [], "available_balance_by_transaction_type": [] } How can I save just the "total_amount" value into the cell B2 for example?
Ana Kravitz
@agustin_leira API Connector will return the entire API response. If you only need a specific value, I suggest creating another sheet that references the cell you need.

This is such an awesome product - thank you! I've noticed in the past few days it hasn't been wokring as well as it once did - it's much slower and keeps hanging - has something changed?
Ana Kravitz
@sama_sama_co I'm glad you like it! I wasn't aware of any performance issues, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I did make some changes recently, to enable different methods of converting JSON to tabular format. I'll send you a message.
