The Problem

E-waste programs collect devices at community events but lack systems to track quantities by type, certify responsible recycling, and report outcomes.

The Solution

SheetAPI converts your e-waste log into an API. Log device intake by type, track recycler handoffs, and generate environmental impact reports.

1

Set Up Your Google Sheet

Create a spreadsheet with columns like: Event ID, Date, Location, Device Type, Quantity, Weight (lbs), Recycler, Certificate #

2

Connect to SheetAPI.pro

Sign up (takes 10 seconds), authorize Google, and paste your sheet URL. Done.

3

Start Using Your API

Get instant REST API endpoints to create, read, update, and delete your e-waste collection & recycling program data.
