Hey Product Hunters 👋! I'm Zainul, the creator of SheetsDB. I'm excited to introduce this tool that simplifies working with Google Sheets data for developers. SheetsDB was born from a common frustration: the need for a quick, hassle-free way to access Google Sheets data in applications. Many existing solutions require complex setup, account linking, or cost a lot. I wanted something simpler and free. Here's how SheetsDB works: - Log in to SheetsDB with your Google account - Create API tokens for authentication - Use these tokens in your API calls along with your sheet URL - Get back a JSON representation of your sheet data SheetsDB is the perfect solution for applications that need to read data from Google Sheets while allowing non-technical team members to update the data. It's ideal for companies already using Google Sheets to store their data, bridging the gap between familiar spreadsheets and modern APIs. Key benefits of SheetsDB: - Simplicity: Easy setup and straightforward API calls - Free to use: No cost barrier for projects of any size - Secure: Authentication via Google account and API tokens - Flexibility: Works with any Google Sheet you have access to - Non-technical friendly: Leverage existing sheets or allow easy updates by non-developers I'd love to hear your thoughts! How could this simplify your development process? What features would make SheetsDB even more useful for you? I'll be here to answer questions and gather feedback. Let's discuss how we can make working with Google Sheets data even easier for developers and businesses!

Great job, Zainul! SheetsDB looks like a game-changer for developers working with Google Sheets. The simplicity of setup and the ability to get JSON data so quickly is fantastic. The focus on security with Google authentication and API tokens is reassuring. I can see this being incredibly useful for my team, where non-developers frequently update data. Have you considered adding write capabilities to the API in future updates?

Congrats on launching SheetsDB, Zainul! The simplicity and straightforward setup of SheetsDB really stand out. As a developer, the ability to quickly access Google Sheets data without complex setups is a game-changer. The free and secure aspect is a huge plus. I'm particularly impressed by the non-technical-friendly approach, allowing team members to update data easily. One feature suggestion: including automated data syncing for real-time updates. Great work!

Hey Zainul! SheetsDB looks like a fantastic tool for developers who rely on Google Sheets. The simplicity of creating API tokens and receiving JSON data is impressive and exactly what many small teams need. I particularly appreciate the focus on non-technical team members being able to update the data without hassle. A suggestion: consider adding a feature for real-time data updates. This could make SheetsDB even more powerful. Congrats on the launch!

@kkk_ddd writing is a little more complicated with a simple approach like this as I would need permissions. Possible to find a simple workaround by maybe adding me to the google sheets with write access instead. Ill continue to look into this :) Most importantly it has to be a simple approach where users can easily get started instead
