library(googlesheets)
suppressMessages(library(dplyr))This vignette shows the basic functionality of googlesheets.
In order to access spreadsheets that are not “published to the web” and in order to access any spreadsheets by title (vs key), you need to authenticate with Google. Many googlesheets functions require authentication and, if necessary, will simply trigger the interactive process we describe here.
The authorize() function uses OAuth2 for authentication, but don’t worry if you don’t know what that means. The first time, you will be kicked into a web browser. You’ll be asked to login to your Google account and give googlesheets permission to access Sheets and Google Drive. Successful login will lead to the creation of an access token, which will automatically be stored in a file named .httr-oath in current working directory. These tokens are perishable and, for the most part, they will be refreshed automatically when they go stale. Under the hood, we use the httr package to manage this.
If you want to switch to a different Google account, run authorize(new_user = TRUE), as this will delete the previously stored token and get a new one for the new account.
The gs_auth() function uses OAuth2 for authentication, but don’t worry if you don’t know what that means. The first time, you will be kicked into a web browser. You’ll be asked to login to your Google account and give googlesheets permission to access Sheets and Google Drive. Successful login will lead to the creation of an access token, which will automatically be stored in a file named .httr-oath in current working directory. These tokens are perishable and, for the most part, they will be refreshed automatically when they go stale. Under the hood, we use the httr package to manage this.
If you want to switch to a different Google account, run gs_auth(new_user = TRUE), as this will delete the previously stored token and get a new one for the new account.
In a hidden chunk, we are logging into Google as a user associated with this package, so we can work with some Google spreadsheets later in this vignette.
As an authenticated user, you can get a (partial) listing of accessible sheets. If you have not yet authenticated, you will be prompted to do so. If it’s been a while since you authenticated, you’ll see a message about refreshing a stale OAuth token.
