Basic Parameters

ParameterDescription

For example, A1-E1 will update the first five cells in the first row.
Sheet NameThe name of the sheet.
Spreadsheet IDThe ID of the spreadsheet.
ValuesThe updated rows data.
This is an array of arrays, the outer array representing all the data and each inner array representing a major dimension.
Each item in the inner array corresponds with one cell.

For input, supported value types are: bool, string, and double. Null values will be skipped.

Advanced Parameters

ParameterDescription

NOTE: the connection details are not edited by this input.
Major DimensionThe major dimension of the values. For output, if the spreadsheet
data is: A1=1,B1=2,A2=3,B2=4, then requesting range=A1:B2,majorDimension=ROWS
will return [[1,2],[3,4]], whereas requesting range=A1:B2,majorDimension=COLUMNS
will return [[1,3],[2,4]]. For input, with range=A1:B2,majorDimension=ROWS
then [[1,2],[3,4]] will set A1=1,B1=2,A2=3,B2=4. With range=A1:B2,majorDimension=COLUMNS
then [[1,2],[3,4]] will set A1=1,B1=3,A2=2,B2=4. When writing, if this field
is not set, it defaults to ROWS.
Value Input OptionHow the input data should be interpreted.
