Set Up Your Google Sheet

Create a spreadsheet with columns like: Date, Telescope, Observer, Target, Hours, Weather Forecast, Status

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 observatory telescope booking data.
