So I’ve been working on a Google Sheet with associated scripts that pull records into Google Sheets via the data api directly. You could use this to say import a full table full of data
It’s awesome because it avoids any middleware like Zapier (i.e. another thing to break, has on-going charges and you’re limited by how far they’ve integrated).
I had a couple of issues that I’m almost finished solving, after which I’ll make it available for people to use:
-
Dealing with pagination from the Bubble Data API as it only pulls down 100 results at a time. I’ve just solved this so it’ll pull down the full database. Basically just keeps pulling results down in batches of 100 until the entire DB is downloaded
-
Dealing with nested JSON data, which I have saved in some fields in a few of my tables. Although this is probably more of a fringe case as I don’t think a lot of people do that - so this might not matter to you
Long story short - I think what I have in it’s current form would be perfect for you if you just want to pull down a bunch of records in one go vs. going record by record with Zapier.
I had this sitting on gumroad with instructions to replicate the Google sheet and set it all up (takes about 5 mins). But I’ve pulled it down to solve those two issues and will put it up again in the next couple of days once I close out that second issue
But if you’re keen to use it. DM me and I’ll let you know how you can get access to it right away
Here’s my original post on the project as well if you’re interested…
