Google Sheets Integration

How it works

SheetEngine connects script projects to your Google Sheets. These scripts can interact with your spreadsheet data and run automations directly.

Google permissions

When you sign in, SheetEngine requests limited permissions to manage your spreadsheets, work with script code, and create deployments. It only has access to sheets you've connected through SheetEngine, not your entire Google Drive.

See Google Permissions Explained for full details.

Creating spreadsheets

When you create a "New Spreadsheet" project, SheetEngine creates a blank Google Sheet in your Drive and sets up a script project for it automatically.

Connecting existing sheets

When you connect an existing spreadsheet, you paste the Apps Script project URL into SheetEngine to link the existing script to your project. SheetEngine then loads the script's code into the workspace editor.

Data access

SheetEngine's AI agent works with your project's script code. It does not read or access the actual spreadsheet data (cell values, formulas, etc.) - it only reads and writes the automation code.
