About PasteSheet
PasteSheet gives a Google Sheet a live JSON endpoint without building a backend. You paste a public sheet URL, or connect Google and choose the exact file in the Picker so a restricted sheet stays private, and you get an endpoint that returns rows as clean JSON. Query parameters filter, sort and paginate any column without a query language.
Responses are cached at the edge with a configurable time to live. Private endpoints hash their keys with SHA-256, and each endpoint also works as an MCP server that Claude, Cursor or any MCP client can call as a tool. The same URL can feed developers, no-code builders and AI tools such as Softr, Framer, Webflow, Zapier and Make.
People use it as a data source for Next.js apps, as the content layer of a Webflow site, as a headless CMS, and as a table that an AI agent can query. New accounts get 14 days of Pro with no credit card and a free plan after that.
