Cmdlets for Google Sheets

Build 24.0.9060

Getting Started

Connecting to Google Sheets

Establishing a Connection shows how to authenticate to Google Sheets and configure any necessary connection properties. You can also configure cmdlet capabilities through the available Connection properties, from data modeling to firewall traversal. The Advanced Settings section shows how to set up more advanced configurations and troubleshoot connection errors.

Connecting from PowerShell

The CData Cmdlets PowerShell Module for Google Sheets provides a familiar way to interact with Google Sheets from PowerShell. The cmdlets provide a standard PowerShell interface and an SQL interface to live data. The CData cmdlets enable you to work with Google Sheets using standard PowerShell objects; you can chain the cmdlets to each other or other cmdlets in pipelines. The cmdlets also support PowerShell debug streams.

Data Manipulation with Cmdlets

See Establishing a Connection to learn how to get started with the Connect-GoogleSheets cmdlet. You can then pass the GoogleSheetsConnection object returned to other cmdlets for accessing data:

  • Select-GoogleSheets
  • Add-GoogleSheets
  • Update-GoogleSheets
  • Remove-GoogleSheets

Executing SQL from PowerShell

You can execute any SQL query with the Invoke-GoogleSheets cmdlet.

Accessing Debug Output from Streams

See Capturing Errors and Logging to obtain the debug output through PowerShell streams.

PowerShell Version Support

The standard cmdlets are supported in PowerShell 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Google Sheets Version Support

The cmdlet leverages two drivers: the Google Drive API to enable bidirectional access to Google Sheets and the Google Sheets to retrieve the actual data.
