Implement auth
betodealmeida opened this issue · comments
Can we query private spreadsheets?
(1) Create service account (see instructions).
(2) Download key as JSON.
(3) Manage API client access at https://admin.google.com/${DOMAIN}/AdminHome?chromeless=1#OGX:ManageOauthClients
- Add the "Unique ID" from step 1 as the "Client Name"
- Add
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets.readonlyas the scope.
(4) Make sure to impersonate a user, otherwise it will fail:
from __future__ import print_function
from google.oauth2 import service_account
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from httplib2 import Http
from oauth2client import file, client, tools
# If modifying these scopes, delete the file token.json.
SCOPES = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets.readonly']
def main():
"""Shows basic usage of the Sheets API.
Prints values from a sample spreadsheet.
"""
SERVICE_ACCOUNT_FILE = '/Users/bdealmeida/Downloads/gsheetsdb-2bb6767cc084.json'
creds = service_account.Credentials.from_service_account_file(
SERVICE_ACCOUNT_FILE, scopes=SCOPES)
delegated_creds = creds.with_subject('roberto@dealmeida.net')
service = build('sheets', 'v4', credentials=delegated_creds)
# Call the Sheets API
SPREADSHEET_ID = '1hsxoXlOTQzMgNdS4Hp6tg-nVRq8v4Mc7syYZsOHltTk'
RANGE_NAME = 'A2:B3'
result = service.spreadsheets().values().get(spreadsheetId=SPREADSHEET_ID,
range=RANGE_NAME).execute()
values = result.get('values', [])
if not values:
print('No data found.')
else:
print('Name, Major:')
for row in values:
# Print columns A and E, which correspond to indices 0 and 4.
print(row)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()Scope should be https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds instead.
