Description

Reads data from a Google Sheet and returns the data as a JSON string.

Before you can use this function with your Google Sheet, you must first share the sheet with this email address:

sheets@sheets-448303.iam.gserviceaccount.com

You can get this email address by calling google_sheet_to_json() with a blank id. For example:

google_sheet_to_json("","")

The Sheet id is obtained by taking the address shown in the browser when you have the sheet open and then extracting the id from the URL:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/this_is_the_id/edit?gid=0#gid=0

dim id as c = "1klxbQOgMiE1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
dim range as c = "Sheet1!A1:B5"
