The Problem

Genealogists track research in scattered files, losing track of which sources have been checked and what needs verification.

The Solution

SheetAPI converts your research log into an API. Track sources, log findings, and collaborate with family members in real-time.

1

Set Up Your Google Sheet

Create a spreadsheet with columns like: Ancestor, Source, Finding, Date, Verified, Researcher, Notes

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 genealogy research tracker data.

Code Examples

Here's how simple it is to work with your genealogy research tracker data:

Fetch All Records

# Using cURL
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  https://api.sheetapi.pro/v1/YOUR_SHEET_ID

// Using JavaScript (fetch)
const response = await fetch('https://api.sheetapi.pro/v1/YOUR_SHEET_ID', {
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
  }
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data); // Your genealogy research tracker records

Create a New Record

# Using cURL
curl -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"Ancestor":"VALUE1","Source":"VALUE2"}' \
  https://api.sheetapi.pro/v1/YOUR_SHEET_ID

// Using JavaScript (fetch)
const newRecord = {
  'Ancestor': 'Sample value',
  'Source': 'Another value'
};

const response = await fetch('https://api.sheetapi.pro/v1/YOUR_SHEET_ID', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify(newRecord)
});

Update a Record

// Update by row ID
const response = await fetch('https://api.sheetapi.pro/v1/YOUR_SHEET_ID/ROW_ID', {
  method: 'PATCH',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
