Frequently Asked Questions
What does this tool do exactly?
It turns any Google Sheet link into a direct download URL that instantly delivers a CSV file version of the sheet. No clicks, no menus, just data. You can then share the link with anyone who has access to the sheet.
Is this safe to use?
Yes! We never access your sheet data. All conversion happens by simply modifying the link you paste. Your sheet can be publicly accessible for the CSV link to work for anyone. But it can also be private so you can use it yourself or with only those who have access..
Does this work with private sheets?
No. The sheet must be set to "Anyone with the link can view." Otherwise, the CSV won’t be downloadable without logging in.
Can I use this URL in scripts or automations?
Absolutely! That's the most powerful use case — embed the CSV URL in scripts, Zapier, Make.com, APIs, Airtable, Notion, or even fetch it via Python or Google Apps Script.
What if I update the sheet later?
The CSV link always fetches the latest version of your sheet. So if your data changes, anyone using the link will get the most current version.
Does it download the whole spreadsheet or just one tab?
Only the first visible tab in the spreadsheet is downloaded as a CSV. If you want a specific tab, make sure it's first or consider using Google Apps Script for more control.
