Reading Sheet2 via Google Sheets API & Python

Question

I just wanna read the next tab/sheet via the API in my Google Sheets Project with Python (Windows 10) Everything works for sheet1, I just want to read/edit sheet2 (and others that I will create in the project).

Tab example: https://i.imgur.com/260rI7K.jpg

import gspread
from oauth2client.service_account import ServiceAccountCredentials
scope = ['https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive']
creds = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name('client_penny.json', scope)
client = gspread.authorize(creds)

penny = client.open('pennystocks').sheet1

print(penny.get_all_records())

This works: penny = client.open(‘pennystocks’).sheet1

This doesn’t: penny = client.open(‘pennystocks’).sheet2

Answer 1

You want to use the sheet except for the sheet of 1st tab using gspread.
- For example, when there are 2 sheets of “Sheet1” and “Sheet2” in a Spreadsheet, you want to use “Sheet2”.

If my understanding is correct, how about this modification?

From:

penny = client.open('pennystocks').sheet1

To:

penny = client.open('pennystocks').worksheet('Sheet2')

Note:

client.open('pennystocks').sheet1 is open the 1st index of sheet. So for example, in your Spreadsheet, when the index of “Sheet1” is modified to “Sheet2”, client.open('pennystocks').sheet1 returns “Sheet2”.

This will work for you
