WordPress Google Sheets Plugins to Transfer and Embed Data

Last Updated July 27th, 2023

Google Sheets is one of the most popular and widely used spreadsheet programs. People use it every day for simple tasks and more complex data-centered solutions. It’s not uncommon for clients to use a Google Sheet as a simple database that houses important information and details. Thankfully, there are APIs available that let you put data in and even draw data out of a Google Sheet to be used elsewhere. This means you can use data from a Google Sheet inside of content on a client’s website. Or you can pass data from a website form, for example, back into a client’s Google Sheet. There are tools available to make all of this possible for websites using WordPress. Let’s take a look at a list of the best WordPress Google Sheets plugins out there.

Popular WordPress Google Sheets Plugins

Every WordPress Google Sheets plugin on our list is available to download from the plugin repository at WordPress.org. You can also install and activate them directly inside the WordPress admin if you prefer. While each of these plugins is free, many have additional paid versions you can buy that provide additional features. Others require signing up for a third-party service. We’ve done our best to explain what you can get in the free versions. And, if applicable, we have a short summary of what the premium versions or third-party services provide you as well.
