## Description

Append one or more rows to a Google Sheets worksheet. Pass rows as a JSON array. **Preferred format:** array of objects with column header keys (e.g., `[{"Name": "Alice", "Email": "alice@example.com"}]`). Use **Get Spreadsheet Info** first to discover the exact column header names — keys must match headers exactly (case-sensitive). Alternatively, pass rows as arrays of positional values matching column order. New rows are appended after the last row with data.

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `spreadsheetId` | `string` | Yes | The spreadsheet ID from the Google Sheets URL. |
| `sheetName` | `string` | Yes | The worksheet (tab) name. Use Get Spreadsheet Info to discover worksheet names. |
| `rows` | `string` | Yes | JSON array of rows to append. Each row can be an object with column header keys or an array of positional values. Example (objects): [{"Name": "Alice", "Email": "alice@example.com"}, {"Name": "Bob", "Email": "bob@example.com"}]. Example (arrays): [["Alice", "alice@example.com"], ["Bob", "bob@example.com"]]. |
| `hasHeaders` | `boolean` | No | Whether row 1 contains column headers. Required when passing rows as objects. Default: true. |

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
