Some of the most powerful control workflows don’t start in software, they start in a spreadsheet. From asset links and content lists to naming conventions, cues, schedules and operational notes, Google Sheets often becomes the shared source of truth across a production team. With the new Google Sheets Extension for Grid Studio, SP Grid can now connect directly to Google Sheets as a live read/write data source, allowing teams to update information in real time and have those changes instantly reflected inside Grid Studio workflows.
This means a producer, technician, or operations manager can simply open a Google Sheet, edit a value, paste a new URL, or update an asset reference and Grid Studio can immediately pull that data into the system. No redeployment. No developer intervention. No waiting. It creates a new level of agility where operational teams can evolve content and show logic on the fly, while programmers retain structure and control through Grid’s entity framework and automation tools.
This Grid Extension was developed directly in response to real-world production feedback, including learnings from Esports tournament, Games of the Future, where teams needed a fast, accessible way to adjust live information without disrupting the core control system. With secure authentication, flexible range control, header-based mapping, and event-driven error handling, Google Sheets becomes more than admin tooling, it becomes a powerful part of the SP Grid platform ecosystem, enabling faster data iteration, streamlined collaboration, and smarter live operation system.
