Is it possible to send HTTP request from inside Google docs?

问题

I want to send an HTTP request to some REST service from Google drive spreadsheet.

Is this possible?

回答1:

Using Google Apps Script, you can make HTTP requests to external APIs from inside Google Docs/Sheets/etc. using the UrlFetchApp class:

var url = 'https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?'
    + 'q=skateboarding+dog'
    + '&start-index=21'
    + '&max-results=10'
    + '&v=2';
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url);
Logger.log(response);

Note that:

This service requires the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/script.external_request scope. In most cases Apps Script automatically detects and includes the scopes a script needs, but if you are setting your scopes explicitly you must manually add this scope to use UrlFetchApp.

Yes, you can use IMPORTDATA. It's designed to work with CSV data but will load any URL you throw at it:

=IMPORTDATA("https://stackoverflow.com/q/23917189/209828")

New line characters start a new row in the spreadsheet and the values shown in the cells are referenceable. Put this formula in A1 of its own sheet and reference cells from different sheets.
