I try to use example "Read multiple ranges":
https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/{SpreadsheetID}/values:batchGet?ranges=Sheet1!B:B&ranges=Sheet1!D:D&valueRenderOption=UNFORMATTED_VALUES?majorDimension=COLUMNS
from: Google Sheets API v4 example I replaced "spreadsheetId" with my spreadsheet id. But when I send GET request (by Postman) I receive:
{
"error": {
"code": 403,
"message": "The request is missing a valid API key.",
"status": "PERMISSION_DENIED"
}
}
Than I used https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground/ I made authorisation for Spreadsheet API v4 with my email and at the end I generated a long link with key and saw correct response with content of my data table.
My question is next: Why it's imposible to use the example from Google API (https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/samples/reading) only replace the spreadsheet id. P.s Link to my spreadsheet is public, My spreadsheet is public and available in JSON format and what is correct use of url for Google Spreadsheet API v4 in order to send batchGet with multiple requests?
P.s.s I use another approach and it works but why first approach (v4) doesn't work:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/list/{SpreadsheetID}/od6/public/values?alt=json
When I tried to combine 2 APIs in one request and received and error "Inconsistent repeating query parameter ranges":
https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/list/{SpreadsheetID}/od6/public/values:batchGet?ranges=Sheet1!B:B&ranges=Sheet1!D:D&valueRenderOption=UNFORMATTED_VALUES?majorDimension=COLUMNS
======================================
Edited:
SpreadSheetID: 1KBk1J7TJCwnayMnTbaysqvFk98kVDdxXWNw2JYc3bW0
Available in incognito mode: Spreadsheet
In JSON format: JSON
Reference: Google Sheets API v4: Read multiple ranges
The same example with SpreadSheetID: ERROR 403
I believe you are missing API in the url. This is from google spreadsheet api doc.
To acquire an API key:
Open the Credentials page in the API Console.
API keys: A request that does not provide an OAuth 2.0 token must send an API key. The key identifies your project and provides API access, quota, and reports.
The API supports several types of restrictions on API keys. If the API key that you need doesn't already exist, then create an API key in the Console by clicking Create credentials > API key. You can restrict the key before using it in production by clicking Restrict key and selecting one of the Restrictions. To keep your API keys secure, follow the best practices for securely using API keys.
After you have an API key, your application can append the query parameter key=yourAPIKey to all request URLs.
The API key is safe for embedding in URLs; it doesn't need any encoding.
