Installation of SheetGo

DeanG

Can someone help me in understanding the SheetGo installation please?

I would like to know if using the Addon in sheets, do you need to use the Google API or is the use of the API for the SheetGo Web App?

Do you know where the data is stored when using SheetGo? Remains in my google drive.

Kind regards

Dean

DeanG Hi Dean,

Thanks for reaching out! :)

Sheetgo is a cloud-based tool that allows you to create connections that will copy-paste data between Google Sheets, compatible Excel files, CSV, and TSV documents stored online in OneDrive, SharePoint, Google Drive, or Dropbox. Sheetgo can also copy data from a BigQuery table into a spreadsheet, and generate emails, Google Docs, and PDFs.

After creating an account, you will allow Sheetgo to save files on your cloud storage and update them automatically — even when you’re offline or when the file is closed.

Sheetgo does not copy the content of your spreadsheets, and your files remain inside your cloud storage (Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, or Dropbox).

All data transfers are made from one file to another via a secure connection. The content of your spreadsheets is never copied to another database — this means your data is as safe as the environment it is hosted in (Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, or Dropbox).

Sheetgo servers are located in the US, in SOC 1, SOC 2, and ISO 27001-certified data centers. Transmission of all information between your device and our servers is protected using 256-bit TLS encryption.

In both cases, we use Google’s API to search for the information that will be transferred from one file to another but you don’t need to worry about it.

Please, let me know if I was able to help you! If not, please, feel free to reply to this message :)

Karoline.

One query, if the information remains within our storage location. what information is being encrypted between our storage location and the SheetGo servers in the US?

Kind regards

DeanG Hi Dean,
We have our privacy policy page with detailed information if you like to consult, but I’ll put here an important point to your question:

Furthermore, all interactions between your file storage account and our Service occur over a secure HTTPS connection.
we don’t store any data contained in your files in our database, except the data in the header row (row 1) of all spreadsheet tabs. The rest of the data in your files never leave your file storage (such as Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or SharePoint), and therefore inherits the entire security structure from your online file storage to ensure that it remains in your chosen environment.

For more information on Sheetgo’s security practices, see the Sheetgo data security page

As we have a lot of information I attached the links to our page, but feel free to keep asking if you need something else!
