Summary

Stitching Sheets: Using MongoDB Stitch To Create An API For Data In Google Sheets aims to integrate data from Google Sheets into a MongoDB database using MongoDB Stitch. A Google Sheets script collects rows of data, posts them to a MongoDB Stitch HTTP Service incoming webhook, and then receives and inserts the data into a MongoDB Database Collection. Another function removes entries from the sheet and updates the eventID reference in the sheet by sending POST requests with form data to a MongoDB Stitch service API. The scripts can be integrated into Google Sheets using the Script Editor, allowing for easy collaboration on events tracking spreadsheet data while making it available outside of Google Sheets through an exposed API.
