Ontime supports the syncing of the rundown to a Google Sheet
You need to provide Ontime with the necessary permissions. From there, we can read and write to the Google Sheet spreadsheet.
This is ideal for collaboration or extensive data manipulation.
On the Google Cloud Console, Create a Project, and in the APIs and services > Enabled APIs and servers, make sure you enable the Google Sheets API.
Select Desktop App as the Application Type, and give the app a name.
Download the file with the Client ID and upload it to the Ontime interface.
Once we have the Client ID token Ontime can request Google permission to access the data in the spreadsheet.
For your security, the authentication is kept in memory and wiped when Ontime quits. This means that you would need to re-authenticate every time you start Ontime.
You will need to provide Ontime with the ID of the document to import.
The Document ID is available in the URL after the d, such as https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/<Document ID>/edit#gid=0

You can get the data from your Google Sheet into Ontime by pressing the Download button at any time.
You can also push your local data from Ontime to the Google Sheet by clicking the Upload button.
