Use this interactive demo to learn how to connect and configure data sources for your AppSheet app.

Quick summary

This tutorial shows how to create an AppSheet app by connecting an existing Google Sheets data source and configuring your tables, display names, and data access settings. By the end, your no-code app is ready to explore with all data properly mapped and saved.


Steps

  1. Click '+ Create' to initiate app creation with your configured settings.
  2. Click 'App' and select 'Start with existing data'.
  3. Personalize your application by entering a descriptive app name.
  4. Navigate through your app's core functionality options.
  5. Choose 'Planning & Project Management' as your app type.
  6. Click 'Choose your data' to select the data source that will power your application.
  7. Connect to 'Google Sheets' as your data source.
  8. Choose a file and click 'Select' to confirm your data file.
  9. Review your ready app and explore what AppSheet built for you.
  10. Open your AppSheet app and navigate to the 'Data' section.
  11. Navigate to the 'Tables' column to manage your data structure.
  12. Select the connected data source and pick the table or sheet to use.
  13. Configure the table settings including the table name, display name, and data access.
  14. Once satisfied, click 'Save' to apply your configuration.

📌 Why this matters

Connecting and configuring data is the foundational step that determines how well an AppSheet app performs in real-world use. AppSheet lets teams build no-code mobile and web apps directly on top of existing data sources like Google Sheets, eliminating the need for custom development. Proper data configuration — including table naming, display settings, and access control — ensures the app surfaces the right information to the right users. This matters because accurate data connectivity is what transforms a spreadsheet into a fully functional, scalable business application.
