I use the following python code to deal with Google sheet:
#!/usr/bin/python
from __future__ import print_function
import httplib2
import os
from apiclient import discovery
from oauth2client import client
from oauth2client import tools
from oauth2client.file import Storage
try:
import argparse
flags = argparse.ArgumentParser(parents=[tools.argparser]).parse_args()
except ImportError:
flags = None
SCOPES = 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets'
CLIENT_SECRET_FILE = 'client_secret.json'
APPLICATION_NAME = 'Google Sheets API Python Quickstart'
def get_credentials():
home_dir = os.path.expanduser('~')
credential_dir = os.path.join(home_dir, '.credentials')
if not os.path.exists(credential_dir):
os.makedirs(credential_dir)
credential_path = os.path.join(credential_dir,
'sheets.googleapis.com-python-quickstart.json')
store = Storage(credential_path)
credentials = store.get()
if not credentials or credentials.invalid:
flow = client.flow_from_clientsecrets(CLIENT_SECRET_FILE, SCOPES)
flow.user_agent = APPLICATION_NAME
if flags:
credentials = tools.run_flow(flow, store, flags)
else: # Needed only for compatibility with Python 2.6
credentials = tools.run(flow, store)
print('Storing credentials to ' + credential_path)
return credentials
def main():
credentials = get_credentials()
print("get_credentials DONE")
http = credentials.authorize(httplib2.Http())
discoveryUrl = ('https://sheets.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?'
'version=v4')
service = discovery.build('sheets', 'v4', http=http,
discoveryServiceUrl=discoveryUrl)
spreadsheetid = '1tMtwIJ1NKusQRMrF0FnV6WVaLJ1MUzun-p_rgO06zh0'
rangeName = "QQ!A1:A5"
values = [
[
500,400,300,200,100,
],
]
Body = {
'values' : values,
}
result = service.spreadsheets().values().update(
spreadsheetId=spreadsheetid, range=rangeName,
valueInputOption='RAW', body=Body).execute()
print("Writing OK!!")
result = service.spreadsheets().values().get(
spreadsheetId=spreadsheetid, range=rangeName).execute()
values = result.get('values', [])
if not values:
print('No data found.')
else:
print('Name :')
for row in values:
# Print columns A and E, which correspond to indices 0 and 4.
print('%s' % (row[0]))
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
After I run the code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "google-sheet.py", line 100, in <module>

File "google-sheet.py", line 82, in main
valueInputOption='RAW', body=Body).execute()

raise HttpError(resp, content, uri=self.uri)
googleapiclient.errors.HttpError: <HttpError 400 when requesting https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/1tMtwIJ1NKusQRMrF0FnV6WVaLJ1MUzun-p_rgO06zh0/values/QQ%21A1%3AA5?alt=json&valueInputOption=RAW returned "Requested writing withinrange [QQ!A1:A5], but tried writing to column [B]">
But if I only read the value, it works perfectly. I have found a lot information in Google. No related helpful information about it.
After Sam Berlin's help,
just put the body content:
Body = {
'values' : values,
'majorDimension' : 'COLUMNS',
}
And it works perfect!!
