The Problem

Manufacturers lose track of work orders. Production managers can't see real-time status, and materials run out mid-job.

The Solution

SheetAPI converts your production schedule into a live API. Shop floor tablets update job status, inventory decrements automatically, and bottlenecks become visible.

1

Set Up Your Google Sheet

Create a spreadsheet with columns like: Order #, Product, Quantity, Status, Start Date, Due Date, Materials, Machine

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 manufacturing production orders data.

Code Examples

Here's how simple it is to work with your manufacturing production orders 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 manufacturing production orders records

Create a New Record

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