The Problem

Nonprofits rely on volunteer hours for grants and reporting but collect time logs manually, leading to incomplete records and grant compliance issues.

The Solution

SheetAPI turns your volunteer log into an API. Volunteers self-report hours, supervisors approve, and grant-ready reports generate automatically.

1

Set Up Your Google Sheet

Create a spreadsheet with columns like: Volunteer ID, Name, Activity, Hours, Date, Supervisor, Approved, Program

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 nonprofit volunteer hours logging data.

Code Examples

Here's how simple it is to work with your nonprofit volunteer hours logging 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 nonprofit volunteer hours logging records

Create a New Record

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