I’d like to use the gspread library in a python step but even connecting the google sheet account it returns only the token, can I find a specific row by a value with plain google sheet api ?
To find a specific row by value using the Google Sheets API, you don’t need the gspread library. Instead, you can use the Google Sheets API directly within a Pipedream Python step. Here’s an example of how you might search for a row by value using the Google Sheets API: import json import httplib2 from googleapiclient.discovery import build from oauth2client.client import AccessTokenCredentials def handler(pd: "pipedream"): # Access the Google Sheets API token from the connected account access_token = pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["google_sheets"]["$auth"]["oauth_access_token"] # Construct credentials and the service object for the Google Sheets API credentials = AccessTokenCredentials(access_token, 'my-user-agent/1.0') http = httplib2.Http() http = credentials.authorize(http) service = build('sheets', 'v4', http=http) # The ID of the spreadsheet to retrieve data from spreadsheet_id = 'your_spreadsheet_id_here' # The range of cells to search range_name = 'Sheet1!A1:D' # Call the Sheets API to get the values result = service.spreadsheets().values().get(spreadsheetId=spreadsheet_id, range=range_name).execute() values = result.get('values', []) # Search for the row that contains the desired value search_value = 'value_to_search_for' for row in values: if search_value in row: # Return the row that contains the value return {"matching_row": row} # If the value is not found, return an appropriate message return {"message": "Value not found"} Please replace 'your_spreadsheet_id_here' with the actual ID of your Google Sheet and 'Sheet1!A1:D' with the range where you want to search for the value. Also, replace 'value_to_search_for' with the actual value you’re looking for. This code uses the Google Sheets API to search for a value in a range of cells and returns the entire row that contains the value. Remember to connect your Google account to the Pipedream step to authorize the request. If you need further assistance or have any other questions, please let me know!
To edit a row with a specific value in a Pipedream workflow, you would typically use an action associated with the service where the data is stored. For example, if you’re editing a row in a Google Sheet, you would use the Google Sheets actions available within Pipedream. However, since you haven’t specified which service or database you’re using, I’ll need more information to provide a precise answer. Could you please tell me which service or database you’re trying to edit a row in? This will help me guide you on how to use the appropriate Pipedream action or write custom code to achieve your goal.
It appears that your question may have been cut off. Could you please provide more details or clarify what specific assistance you need with a Python step in Pipedream?
To edit a row with a specific value in a Google Sheets document within a Python step in Pipedream, you’ll need to use the Google Sheets API. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how you can achieve this: 1. Make sure you have connected your Google account to Pipedream and have the necessary permissions to edit Google Sheets. 2. Use the Google Sheets API to search for the specific value in the sheet and identify the row you want to edit. 3. Once you have identified the row, use the Google Sheets API to update the row with the new data. Here’s an example of how you might write a Python step in Pipedream to update a row in Google Sheets: def handler(pd: "pipedream"): # Access the Google Sheets API client from pd.clients sheets_client = pd.clients.get("google_sheets") # Specify the spreadsheet ID and range you want to update spreadsheet_id = "your_spreadsheet_id" range_name = "Sheet1!A2:E" # Update this range as needed # Find the row with the specific value # This is just an example. You'll need to write the logic to find the row row_to_update = 2 # Update this with the actual row number # Specify the new values for the row values = [ ["new_value1", "new_value2", "new_value3", "new_value4", "new_value5"] ] body = { "values": values } # Use the update method to update the row result = sheets_client.spreadsheets().values().update( spreadsheetId=spreadsheet_id, range=f"Sheet1!A{row_to_update}", valueInputOption="USER_ENTERED", body=body ).execute() # Return the result for use in future steps return {"updated_cells": result.get("updatedCells")} Please note that you’ll need to replace "your_spreadsheet_id" with the actual ID of your spreadsheet and adjust the range_name and row_to_update variables to match the row you want to edit. The values array should contain the new data you want to write to the row. This is a simplified example, and you’ll need to handle authentication with the Google Sheets API and write the logic to find the specific
