Google Sheets

Google Sheets

• Reads data from any Google Sheet you have access to
• Writes new rows, updates cells, or clears ranges
• Applies formatting like bold headers, background colors, and auto-resized columns
• Creates new spreadsheets and adds new sheets to existing ones
• Sorts data, adds filters, and performs batch updates across multiple ranges
