Code Examples

Here's how simple it is to work with your hr & employee management 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 hr & employee management records

Create a New Record

# Using cURL curl -X POST \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"Employee ID":"VALUE1","Name":"VALUE2"}' \ https://api.sheetapi.pro/v1/YOUR_SHEET_ID
// Using JavaScript (fetch) const newRecord = { 'Employee ID': 'Sample value', 'Name': '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' }, body: JSON.stringify({ 'Status': 'Updated' }) });
