Hey Thunkers!

Have you ever wanted to use Google spreadsheets as a source or a back-end for you app? Thanks to a new component powered by Cloudstitch, you can.

**[Click here to view a sample Spreadsheets app project!](http://app.thunkable.com/?locale=en&repo=share.thunkableapps.com/templates/HelloSpreadsheets.asc)**

With Cloudstitch, anyone can use a Google spreadsheet (or a Microsoft 360 spreadsheet) to store data, powering interesting features like dynamically changing listpickers to easy to understand mapping databases. (Cloudstitch requires you to manually sync your spreadsheet to your app unless you upgrade services).

More details on how you might implement it in [the documentation here](http://thunkable.com/reference/components/experimentation.html).

Can’t wait to see what you thunk!  
Albert @ Thunkable

Looking forward to trying out this feature. I also really like that clicking the link clones the project and opens it directly in **my** Thunkable. Excellent UX, thanks @albert 🙂

Hi @Ali_Aydin,

You can! We try to leverage the spreadsheet whenever possible, so the way to do it is with a spreadsheet trick. I’ve shared [a spreadsheet here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eUpUI13FUrOoqzNAp78O_tj-hLP-FeM7ldXxTcbJUxs/edit?usp=sharing) with an example.

Assume you’ve got the raw data in a worksheet called **RawData**. Just create a _second_ worksheet called **Sorted** that will always project a sorted version of the raw data.

- In cell A1 of that new sheet, use the formula **=ArrayFormula(RawData!A1:Z1)** to copy the header row.
- In cell A2 of that new sheet, use the formula **=SORT(RawData!A2:Z, 1, true)** to copy (and sort) everything else.

You could use a similar trick to create a third worksheet that only grabs the top 250 of your leader board by placing the formula **=ArrayFormula(Sorted!A1:Z251)** in cell A1. With this approach you’d have three worksheets: the raw data, the sorted data, and the top leaders.

Remember you’ll have to sync your spreadsheet in Cloudstitch to publish it to the API (or set it to auto-sync). And note that some of the references in the arguments above depend on the particulars of your spreadsheet.

Then just use the sorted data inside Thunkable. You can grab the data from only one worksheet by appending **/WorksheetName** to the URL see for the API Endpoint in the Thunkable editor

Unfortunately, I think you can simply add and query a spreadsheet at the moment – updating and deleting data is not possible as far as I know;

Hi!

Is it safe to use Google spreadsheet as a database to store information like email and user passwords, or would it be better to use Firebase?
