Use Google Sheets as a Headless CMS

Edit content in a familiar spreadsheet interface. Fetch it as JSON on your website. No server, no database, no CMS to maintain.

How it works

Create a Google Sheet with columns like title, body, slug, and published. Share it with our service account, connect it in SheetZAPI, and you instantly have a REST API. Use ?_filter=published:eq:true to fetch only live content.

Why teams choose this approach

Non-technical team members can update website content directly in Google Sheets: no code deploys, no CMS training. Changes appear in real-time (or after your configured cache TTL expires).

Example API call

GET /api/v1/sheets/{your-sheet}/rows?_filter=published:eq:true&_sort=-date&_limit=10 returns your 10 most recent published posts as JSON, ready to render in React, Next.js, Vue, or any frontend.
