Is there a way to delete multiple row in a spreadsheet?

 

Lets say I want to delete in table X row 20 till 35 at once.

 

Right now the only way I found ist to do many actions one after each other

delete row 20

delete row 21

...and so on

Hi there @melters - thanks for stopping by!

Check out this post which sounds similar to what you’re hoping to do. Hoping that gets you pointed in the right direction!

finding rows doesn't work for me because I have no clue what is in those rows. I just know they need to be deleted.

In your reference post I can't find what im looking for.

thanks Daniel

Hi @melters 

Good question.

This can be done using the GSheets API: https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/reference/rest

Zap Action: GSheets - API Request

If you need help, consider hiring a Certified Zapier Expert: https://zapier.com/experts/automation-ace

 

thanks for the hint:

I use this query:

https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/{spreadsheet_id}

 

and this as parameters

ranges   =    Zeiterfassung!A15:T16

 

But the system only returns what is in the rows but it does not clear them.

 

What am I doing wrong?

Best regards 

Daniel

Hi @melters,

The API Request action is a bit on the advanced side. Here are some helpful articles that can guide you through the process:

  1. Make raw HTTP requests with API Request actions (Beta)
  2. Create an API request in your Zaps
  3. Set up an API request action

And if you need a bit more hands-on help, we have a fantastic group of certified Zapier Experts who would be more than happy to assist you in setting up your API Request action. You can get in touch with them right here.

 

Hopefully, this helps!  😊
