# Google Sheets MCP Server
> Powerful tools for automating Google Sheets using Model Context Protocol (MCP)
## Overview
Google Sheets MCP Server provides seamless integration of Google Sheets with any MCP-compatible client. It enables full spreadsheet automation — including creating, reading, updating, and deleting sheets — through a simple and secure API layer.
## Features
- Full CRUD support for Google Sheets and tables
- Works with Continue.dev, Claude Desktop, Perplexity, and other MCP clients
- Secure authentication via Google Service Account
- Comprehensive tools for Google Sheets automation
- Automatic installation via `uvx`
## Requirements
- Python 3.10+
- `uv` package manager (for `uvx` command)
- A Google Cloud project with a Service Account
- MCP-compatible client (e.g., Continue.dev)
**Install uv:**
```bash
# macOS/Linux
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
# Windows PowerShell
irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex
```

## Quick Start
### 1. Set Up Google Service Account
**Step 1: Create a Google Cloud Project**
1. Go to [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/)
2. Click "Select a project" → "New Project"
3. Enter a project name (e.g., "my-sheets-automation")
4. Click "Create"
**Step 2: Enable Required APIs**
1. In your project, go to "APIs & Services" → "Library"
2. Search for "Google Sheets API" → Click → "Enable"
3. Search for "Google Drive API" → Click → "Enable"
**Step 3: Create Service Account**
1. Go to "IAM & Admin" → "Service Accounts"
2. Click "Create Service Account"
3. Enter service account name (e.g., "sheets-mcp-service")
4. Click "Create and Continue"
5. Skip role assignment → Click "Continue"
6. Click "Done"
**Step 4: Generate JSON Key**
1. Click on your new service account email
2. Go to "Keys" tab → "Add Key" → "Create new key"
3. Choose "JSON" format → Click "Create"
4. The JSON file will download automatically
**Step 5: Extract Required Values**
Open the downloaded JSON file and note these values:
- `project_id` (e.g., "my-sheets-automation-123456")
- `private_key_id` (e.g., "a4ae73111b11b2c3b07cc01006e71eb8230dfa29")
- `private_key` (the long private key starting with "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----")
- `client_email` (e.g., "sheets-mcp-service@my-sheets-automation-123456.iam.gserviceaccount.com")
- `client_id` (e.g., "113227823918217958816")
- `client_x509_cert_url` (e.g., "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/sheets-mcp-service%40my-sheets-automation-123456.iam.gserviceaccount.com")
**Example Google service account JSON structure:**
```json
{
"type": "service_account",
"project_id": "your-project-id",
"private_key_id": "your-private-key-id",
"private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n...\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
"client_email": "your-service@your-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com",
"client_id": "your-client-id",
"auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
"token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
"auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
"client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/your-service%40your-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com"
}
```
[Follow this guide if needed](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials)
### 2. Configure MCP Client
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"google-sheets-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["google-sheets-mcp@latest"],
"env": {
"project_id": "your-project-id",
"private_key_id": "your-private-key-id",
"private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n...\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
"client_email": "your-service@your-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com",
"client_id": "your-client-id",
"client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/your-service%40your-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com"
}
}
}
}
```
**💡 Pro Tip:** You can copy the values directly from your Google service account JSON file. The field names in the JSON file are used exactly as they are - no changes needed!
**🔄 Backward Compatibility:** The server also supports the old `GOOGLE_` prefixed variable names (e.g., `GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID`) for existing configurations.
### 3. Share Your Google Sheet with the Service Account
- Open your target Google Spreadsheet in your web browser.
- Click the **Share** button.
- Enter the **service account email** (e.g., `your-service@your-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com`) and assign **Editor** access.
- Click **Send** to provide editor permissions.
**🎉 You're all set!** Your MCP client will automatically install and run the package when needed.
