Right, but won't you need permissions to access data in user accounts? You can only get permissions with a Google audit (which you have to pay for).
You might be mixing up access to GMail APIs with general access to Google APIs? Reading people's emails comes with tons of red tape, other things not so much.

No, the easiest way is to use a service account and share the sheet with the service account. No need for user OAuth at all. https://github.com/juampynr/google-spreadsheet-reader

Nice! I would recommend making the link clearer: unless I knew it was there, I would have missed it.
Got it! I bolded the text. Also added one for Article Curation. Thank you for your advice and suggestion!

#105So from talking to people I see a need to quickly turn a spreadsheet of information into something visually pleasing. SheetUI is my response to that need. You give it a Google Sheet URL, pick a template, and tap in the columns where you want them to show up. In return you get a visually pleasing and responsive web page that you can embed on your site, or link to in your newsletter or chat with a client. Created with…
Are you using Node.js? Would love some feedback on my lib since it seems we are doing the same thing for different user types!

> Drive - Any Drive API scope that permits an application to read, modify, or manage the content or metadata of a user’s Drive files, without the user individually granting file-by-file access.
I could be wrong, but to me this suggests you can use the Sheets API against a user-specified document without it. It has it's own namespace of scopes that's not under drive.X

#108Services like this need an easy way to allow people to use their own domain names, and we need to lower the barrier of entry to individuals registering domains and setting up HTTPS. Imagine a SaaS that sells domains, then provides and easy (and open) API for delegating control over subdomains using OAuth2. So I sign up for sheetui, and during the registration process they redirect me to a namecheap.com (where andersp…

Rather than leaving all this to the many registrars, what about a SaaS (let’s call it usemycustomdomain) that allows you to point a CNAME record for a subdomain to it, then when you sign up to an app that supports custom domains, you can oAuth2 to usemycustomdomain. Then usemycustomdomain can do the SSL management and termination and proxy the traffic to different SaaS products. It could even support custom URLs on a…

#110I kind of like some of the Brutalism takes on web design. Just throw away all decoration and live with the ugly world, “ugly” being subjective. I think excel sheets are actually quite beautiful.
Challenge the status quo :-) at the expense of coolness, dignity and comfort.
