Show HN: Transform Google spreadsheets into a ready-to-embed widget table
- haberdasher 7y agoSolid demo video.
- maxigimenez 7y agoThank you!
- so_tired 7y agohttps://updatefy.co/documentation#types https://updatefy.co/documentation#types Err.. so there are only 3 widget types right now? This looks like a neat idea. More widgets needed. But i am not a UI or front-end guy. Am i mis-understanding? Are users supposed to design our own widgets?
- maxigimenez 7y agoThanks :) At the moment we have 3 widget types we are planning to release more. No, all widgets are coming from us :)
- shostack 7y agoGetting a video error when I try to watch. Does this let me display certain spreadsheet cells or arrays as say, an Android widget? I've been looking for something that lets me do that in a manner that offers solid privacy and security. Of the solutions I've seen in the app store, I'm not sure I feel convinced about those aspects of them. I wish Google would release a native Sheets Android widget.

- taf2 7y agoGreat demo
- maxigimenez 7y agoThank you!
- dominotw 7y agoGreat idea and clean demo. Do you know what some of your customers are doing with this in the real world.
- maxigimenez 7y agoThank you! Yes! For example one of our customers is using Updatefy to update order status in their websites, so any employee with Google Sheets knowledge can do it.
- slightwinder 7y agoHow do you know that?
- maxigimenez 7y agoI talked with them :), also is as a testimonial in home page https://updatefy.co https://updatefy.co
- jackallis 7y agohow long with smartsheet last?
- maxigimenez 7y agoHi, what do you mean? Theres no limit.
- somada141 7y agoThat looks fantastic! Have been looking for a way to embed a roadmap into my app while keeping the data disconnected from it in a frictionless way. Wonder if there could be a way to two-way-bind so that users can actually make changes to the data when displayed as a table.
- maxigimenez 7y agoThank you! and happy to hear that you might use it :) No, at the moment is only visible data, we don't support writing in the spreadsheet.
- ramsesc 7y agoGreat product! Looking forward to see whats coming.
- maxigimenez 7y agoThanks! :)
- ramsesc 7y agoCool idea! Looking forward to see what's coming.
- mnoah 7y agoVery cool! I like the logo a lot. I also have a web application that relies on spreadsheets but as an Excel file upload. Cool to see what is possible with Google Sheets.
- mnoah 7y agoThere's an idea for you. Create a static widget from a users uploaded .xlsx file..
