SQL functions in Google Sheets to fetch data from Datasette
— I've been experimenting with ways to fetch data from Datasette and display it in Google Sheets.
I put together some notes on patterns for fetching data from a Datasette instance directly into Google Sheets - using the importdata() function, a "named function" that wraps it or a Google Apps Script if you need to send an API token in an HTTP header (not supported by importdata().)
Here's an example sheet demonstrating all three methods.
