Message:

I have a published Google sheet and I would like to use it in a website.

What I want is to have something such a "local copy" of that sheet, that is when I update sheet on my website the update remain local.

I will use this sheet for an order form, so every user of my website should have a empty version of sheet.

Is there any way to do this?

My Answer:
iframe or embed code that will display the Google sheet on my website without having to manually update the source every time the sheet is updated.

One way to achieve this is by using the Google Sheets API to fetch the data from the sheet and display it on your website dynamically. This way, whenever the sheet is updated, the changes will automatically be reflected on your website.

Here is a basic example of how you can use the Google Sheets API to fetch data from a Google sheet and display it on your website:

1. First, you will need to enable the Google Sheets API for your project and obtain the necessary credentials.

2. Next, you can use the Google Sheets API to fetch the data from your sheet. Here is an example code snippet using JavaScript:

javascript
fetch('https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/{YOUR_SPREADSHEET_ID}/values/{YOUR_RANGE}?key={YOUR_API_KEY}')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => {
// Display the data on your website
console.log(data);
});


3. Replace `{YOUR_SPREADSHEET_ID}`, `{YOUR_RANGE}`, and `{YOUR_API_KEY}` with your actual spreadsheet ID, range, and API key.

4. You can then use the fetched data to display it on your website using HTML and JavaScript.

By using the Google Sheets API in this way, you can ensure that the data displayed on your website is always up-to-date without having to manually update the source every time the sheet is updated.
