Google Spreadsheets data API Java Sample - README.txt ----------------------------------------------------- This is a very simple Java example of how the API can be used on a Google spreadsheet to add, remove, and modify rows like a data table. Before starting this demo, make sure you create a spreadsheet. In the top row, put headers, such as 'Name', 'Day', 'Address', or any other important piece of information. A good example might be: Name Day Phone Rosa Tue 555-1212 Vladimir Wed 555-3137 Sanjay Thu 555-2127 Ejike Fri 555-4444 It is best practices to freeze the top row, in the 'Sorting' tab. This way, sorting will make sure the top row stays intact. We suggest you leave your browser open while trying this out. This can be built an run with Ant: 1. Edit gdata/java/build-samples/build.properties with your Google Account username, password, and a URL to your Google spreadsheet. (in the format ....spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?id=...) 2. Run the Ant rule: ant -f gdata/java/build-samples.xml sample.spreadsheet.list.run Alternately, you can compile and run it from the command line: java sample.list.ListDemo --username [user] --password [pass]
