# Google Sheets

> GoogleSheetsTools read, create, update, and duplicate Google Sheets through the Sheets API.

**GoogleSheetsTools** enable an Agent to interact with Google Sheets API for reading, creating, updating, and duplicating spreadsheets.

## Prerequisites

You need to install the required Google API client libraries:

```bash theme={null}
uv pip install google-api-python-client google-auth-httplib2 google-auth-oauthlib openai
```

Set up the following environment variables:

```bash theme={null}
export GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id_here
export GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret_here
export GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID=your_project_id_here
```

## How to Get Credentials

1. Go to Google Cloud Console ([https://console.cloud.google.com](https://console.cloud.google.com))

2. Create a new project or select an existing one

3. Enable the Google Sheets API:
   * Go to "APIs & Services" > "Enable APIs and Services"
   * Search for "Google Sheets API"
   * Click "Enable"

4. Create OAuth 2.0 credentials:
   * Go to "APIs & Services" > "Credentials"
   * Click "Create Credentials" > "OAuth client ID"
   * Go through the OAuth consent screen setup
   * Give it a name and click "Create"
   * You'll receive:
     * Client ID (GOOGLE\_CLIENT\_ID)
     * Client Secret (GOOGLE\_CLIENT\_SECRET)
   * The Project ID (GOOGLE\_PROJECT\_ID) is visible in the project dropdown at the top of the page

## Example

The following agent will use Google Sheets to read spreadsheet data.

```python cookbook/91_tools/googlesheets_tools.py theme={null}
from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.tools.google.sheets import GoogleSheetsTools

SAMPLE_SPREADSHEET_ID = "1BxiMVs0XRA5nFMdKvBdBZjgmUUqptlbs74OgvE2upms"
SAMPLE_RANGE_NAME = "Class Data!A2:E"

google_sheets_tools = GoogleSheetsTools(
    spreadsheet_id=SAMPLE_SPREADSHEET_ID,
    spreadsheet_range=SAMPLE_RANGE_NAME,
    oauth_port=8080,  # or any other port
)

agent = Agent(
    tools=[google_sheets_tools],
    instructions=[
        "You help users interact with Google Sheets using tools that use the Google Sheets API",
        "Before asking for spreadsheet details, first attempt the operation as the user may have already configured the ID and range in the constructor",
    ],
)
agent.print_response("Please tell me about the contents of the spreadsheet")
```
