Connect your app to Google Sheets

How to connect a Google Sheet to your AppMachine app to quickly populate your app. The screens to show the information are created on the fly. You will also learn that when you update your Google sheet or the data in AppMachine, the change will be synced automatically. 

You can create a new app based on Google Sheets or add a Google Sheet to an existing app.
You will need to sign in with your Google account and select the Google Sheet.

With AppMachine's Google Sheets integration, creating new app screens and populating them with data has never been easier. Simply sign in with your Google account and select the Google Sheet you want to connect to your app. AppMachine will automatically add two blocks to your app: a list block that displays all the items in your sheet, and a detail block that shows the details of each individual item.

But that's not all - you can also customize these screens with the simple layout editor. Enable or disable information in each block, change the styling and order of the information, and make the screens look exactly the way you want them to.

One of the greatest features of the Google Sheets integration is that any changes you make in the Google Sheet are automatically synced to your app. This means that updating your information is as easy as updating your Google Sheet - no need to worry about manually syncing your app.

So whether you're creating a new app based on a Google Sheet or adding a Google Sheet to an existing app, AppMachine's Google Sheets integration is the perfect solution to streamline your workflow and save you time and effort.
