In this post, I demonstrate how to convert a Google Sheet into a JSON Web App. The JSON Web App can be used as a web service to bring data into a website.
How to Video:
Video Notes:
- Legacy Apps Script Editor Used in Video
- Apps Script (Script Editor) is now located under tab ‘Extensions’ instead of ‘Tools’ on Google Sheets

Code in Video:
function doGet() {
var content = getSheetData();
var contentObject = {GoogleSheetData: content}
return ContentService.createTextOutput(JSON.stringify(contentObject) ).setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);
}
function getSheetData() {
var ss= SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var dataSheet = ss.getSheetByName('DATA');
var dataRange = dataSheet.getDataRange();
var dataValues = dataRange.getValues();
return dataValues;
