Google Sheets

Connect Google Sheets to analyze and maintain trackers, logs, and schedules.

What it can do​

  • Read spreadsheet structure and cell values.
  • Write values and formulas.
  • Insert rows or columns and change spreadsheet properties.

Setup and security​

  • You sign in with your own Google account. Assistant can reach only the spreadsheets that account can open, and can edit only those it can edit.
  • Tools that change data ask for approval before they run. The Approval column under Supported tools shows each tool's setting.
  • Until Google approves Nomic's app, signing in shows a Google MCP access requires whitelisting dialog. Email support@nomic.ai to have your account whitelisted for all Google MCP servers.

To connect, see Add an MCP server.

Example requests​
