Updated
3 min read

Stop building backends for simple data needs. Start shipping faster.

If you've ever needed to expose spreadsheet data to your app, website, or service, you know the pain. You either build a custom backend, wrestle with server configurations, or copy-paste data manually.

There's a better way.

Introducing Jsonsheets

Jsonsheets transforms any Google Sheet into a fully functional REST API with a single click. No coding required. No server setup. No maintenance headaches.

Simply connect your Google account, select a spreadsheet, and you instantly get API endpoints for:

  • GET - Retrieve your data as JSON

  • POST - Add new rows

  • PUT - Update existing rows

  • DELETE - Remove rows

Your spreadsheet becomes a lightweight database with a professional API in front of it.

Who is Jsonsheets For?

Indie Hackers & Solopreneurs - Launch MVPs without building a backend. Use Google Sheets as your database and focus on what matters: your product.

Developers - Need a quick API for a side project, prototype, or internal tool? Skip the database setup entirely.

Content Teams - Manage content in familiar spreadsheets while developers consume it via API. Everyone stays in their comfort zone.

Agencies - Deliver client projects faster. Let clients update their own data in Google Sheets without touching code.

Why Google Sheets?

  • Everyone knows how to use it - No learning curve

  • Real-time collaboration - Your team can edit simultaneously

  • Free storage - Google handles the infrastructure

  • Version history - Built-in backups and change tracking

  • Formulas work - Calculated fields update automatically

Key Features

Each tab in your spreadsheet becomes its own API endpoint. Organize your data however you want.
