google_accountsManage the Google accounts Sheets MCP can use. list: show signed-in accounts and the default. add: sign in to a Google account (opens a browser sign-in; also use this when a sign-in has expired). remove: sign an account out and revoke access. set_default: choose the account used for new spreadsheets.find_spreadsheetFind a spreadsheet by name among the ones the user has opened or created with Sheets MCP before (the list is kept on their computer). Use it when the user names a sheet instead of pasting a link, e.g. "my budget sheet". It can't search the rest of their Google Drive: if nothing matches, ask for the link. Leave query empty to list the most recent.create_spreadsheetCreate a new Google Sheets spreadsheet.get_spreadsheet_infoGet a spreadsheet's title, tabs (sizes, frozen rows/cols), charts (ids, types, data ranges), named ranges, and the first few rows of each tab. Call this first to understand a sheet's layout.read_rangeRead cell contents from a range, or its formatting with mode "formats". Large ranges are truncated; use next_range to continue.read_rangesRead several ranges in one call, across any tabs. Faster than calling read_range repeatedly. Each range is truncated to its share of max_cells; use its next_range with read_range to continue.write_rangeWrite values and/or formulas starting at the top-left cell of the range. Input is parsed like typing into the UI (formulas, dates, percentages work). Previous contents are saved for undo_last. Returns any formula errors found after writing.fill_rangeFill cells from a source block, like dragging the fill handle or pasting onto a bigger selection: the source's formulas (relative references shift), values and formatting repeat across the destination. Use it after writing one row or column of formulas to extend them across a table, instead of sending every column. With continue_series, patterns continue instead (1, 2, 3 → 4, 5, 6; Jan → Feb; dates). The destination's previous contents are saved for undo_last. Returns any formula errors found after filling.append_rowsAppend rows after the last row of data in a table (detected from the given range or tab).clear_rangeClear values and formulas in a range (formatting is kept). Previous contents are saved for undo_last.find_replaceFind and replace text across a tab or the whole spreadsheet. Not undoable - consider read_range first.undo_lastUndo the most recent write_range, append_rows, or clear_range made through this server (restores values/formulas only, not formatting or structure). History is kept in memory until the server restarts.- +17 more on the listing page
