Getting rows on Querying is not working

Hi @theoephraim ,

I’am trying to get row/record on Querying with conditions. i.e. I have number of records in a google sheet with header names Emp Name, Emp ID, Emp Place etc. I’am trying to get the employee record and then, update who’s Emp ID is 6258. But its fails.

Please look in to below code snippets.

function getRecordToUpdate(empDetails, sheetInfo) {
    var options = { offset: 0 };
    options.query = 'Emp ID = '+empDetails.Employee_ID;   //here Emp ID is 6258
    return sheetInfo.getRows(options)
    .then((res) => res)
    .catch((err) => { throw err; })
}

                         (or)

function getRecordToUpdate(empDetails, sheetInfo) {
    var options = { offset: 0 };
    options.query = 'Emp ID = '+empDetails.Employee_ID;
    const response =await sheetInfo.getRows(options)
  
}

I’am getting all the records of the sheet instead of, the record with Emp ID is 6258. Please help out with this.

Thanks in advance.

I don’t think it’s possible. Dig around in the google sheets docs directly.

Regardless, I suggest you try out airtable

No, unfortunately, that won’t help. Google discontinued their row-based api which included the querying abilities. I recreated the row-based calls as best I could, but it can’t do everything it used to. I recommend you try out https://airtable.com/invite/r/UnvfbjVY instead of google sheets.
