I’m working on a project where I need to add new rows to a Google Sheets document using ASP.NET and C#. I’ve been trying to use the Google Sheets API for .NET, but I’m running into some trouble.
I’ve managed to set up the API and connect to my spreadsheet, but I can’t figure out how to insert a new row. I’ve looked through the documentation, but it’s not clicking for me.
Has anyone here done this before? I’d really appreciate some guidance on how to add rows programmatically. Maybe a code snippet or a step-by-step explanation would help?
I’ve actually implemented this in a recent project. The key is using the Sheets service and the Spreadsheets.Values.Append method, as ClimbingLion mentioned. Here’s a bit more detail:
First, make sure you’ve set up your credentials correctly. Then, create a SheetsService object. You’ll need to specify the spreadsheet ID and the range where you want to add the new row.
The tricky part is formatting your data correctly. You need to create a ValueRange object and set its Values property to a list of lists, where each inner list represents a row.
When calling Append, use InsertDataOption.INSERT_ROWS to actually add a new row rather than overwriting existing data.
It took me a while to get it working smoothly, but once you’ve got it set up, it’s pretty straightforward to use. Let me know if you need any clarification on specific steps.
yo, i’ve done this before! u gotta use the Sheets service and call the Spreadsheets.Values.Append method. it’s kinda tricky at first but once u get it, it’s not too bad. gimme a shout if u need more specifics, i can dig up old code for ya
I’ve worked with the Google Sheets API in C# for a similar project. To add a new row, you first need to establish the SheetsService with the correct credentials and then create a ValueRange object that contains your data. It is important to organize the data so that each entry corresponds to a cell in the row and to ensure that the spreadsheet ID and range are correct.
A crucial detail is to use the Spreadsheets.Values.Append method with InsertDataOption configured as INSERT_ROWS, which adds a new row rather than replacing existing data. If further clarification is needed, I can share a detailed code example.
