ESP32 Datalogging to Google Sheets (using Google Service Account)

In this project, you’ll learn how to log data to Google Sheets with the ESP32 securely and reliably using a Google Service Account and Google Sheets API. We’ll use the Arduino Google Sheets Client Library. After explaining the most important basic concepts, we’ll build a Datalogger that saves temperature, humidity, pressure, and corresponding timestamp on a Google spreadsheet.

To successfully follow this tutorial, make sure you follow all the next steps in the following order:

Prerequisites
Google Service Account
Installing the Arduino Google Sheet Client Library
Creating a Google Spreadsheet
Sharing the Spreadsheet with the Service Account
ESP32 with BME280 Circuit
ESP32 Datalogging to Google Sheets – Arduino Sketch

Note: we have another tutorial showing how to send data to Google Sheets, but using IFTTT: ESP32 Publish Sensor Readings to Google Sheets (ESP8266 Compatible).

1. Prerequisites

Before following this tutorial, make sure you check the following prerequisites:

Google Account

You need a Google Account to follow this project. If you don’t have a Google account, you can create one here.

ESP32 with Arduino IDE

We’ll program the ESP32 board using Arduino IDE. So, make sure you have the ESP32 add-on installed. Follow the next tutorial if you haven’t already:

Install the ESP32 Board in Arduino IDE

Additionally, make sure you’re running the latest version of the ESP32 add-on. Go to Tools > Board > Boards Manager, search for ESP32, and check that you’re running the latest version.

2. Google Service Account

To log data securely to Google Sheets, we’ll use a Google Service Account. A service account, identified by its unique email address, is a special kind of account. It is typically used by an application or compute workload, like a Compute Engine instance, rather than being associated with a person. You can learn more about a service account.

Create a Google Project

You need to create a Google project and associate a Google service account to that specific project. You can do that on your main Google account or you can choose to do that on another secondary account. As always, we recommend that you use another account just for your IoT and ESP32 projects, and not your main account.

Create a Service Account

1. Go to Google Cloud Console.

2. Create a new project or choose an existing project. We’ll show you how to create a new project.

3. Give a name to your project. Then, click Create.

Your project will be created successfully.

4. Now, you need to create a service account for that project. At the left sidebar, click on Service accounts and then, click on + Create Service Account.

5. Insert a name for your Service account, then click Create and Continue.

Create google service account define set name

6. Select the service account role. Select Owner. Then, click Continue.

7. Finally, click Done.

You successfully create a Service Account. Now, you need to create a Key.

Creating a New Key

Select the project, click on the three dots icon, and then click on Manage Keys.

Then, create a new key.

Then, select JSON and click Create.

This will download a JSON file to your computer with the key.

Open the file, and you’ll get something similar, but with your own details:

{
  "type": "service_account",
  "project_id": "...",
  "private_key_id": "...",
  "private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- ...................\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
  "client_email": ".....",
  "client_id": "....",
  "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
  "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
  "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
  "client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/...",
  "universe_domain": "googleapis.com"
}

Copy the project_id, client_email, private_key_id and private_key from the .json file because you’ll need them later.

Enable Google Sheet API

Now that you have a project, you need to enable the Google Sheet API for that project. Click on the following link: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/sheets.googleapis.com and enable Google Sheets API (you need to be on the same account where you created the project).

Enable Google Drive API

You also need to enable Google Drive API for your project. Open the following link https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/drive.googleapis.com and enable the Google Drive API.

3. Installing the Arduino Google Sheet Client Library for Arduino devices

To publish readings to Google Sheets using the Google Service Account, we’ll use the ESP-Google-Sheet-Client library by Mobitz. This library comes with methods to create, read, and delete spreadsheets and write, update, and append data to the spreadsheet file. You can find all the library examples.

In the Arduino IDE, go to Sketch > Library > Manage Libraries. Search for ESP-Google-Sheet-Client and click Install.

install ESP Google Spreadsheet client library arduino ide

4. Creating a Google Spreadsheet

Go to Google Sheets and create a new spreadsheet. Give a title to your spreadsheet. For example ESP32 Datalogging.

Save the spreadsheet ID. It’s highlighted in the picture above. The Spreadsheet ID is the last string of characters in the URL for your spreadsheet. For example, in the URL https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aISQE8K79LS5c3vF18qFRcmfDRFn_9nE4nKveWBCtoQ/edit#gid=0, the spreadsheet ID is 1aISQE8K79LS5c3vF18qFRcmfDRFn_9nE4nKveWBCtoQ.

For you to be able to log data to that spreadsheet using the Google Service Account, as we’ll do in this tutorial, you need to share the spreadsheet with the service account email. You should get the service account email in the JSON file you downloaded previously saved on the client_email variable.

At the top right corner click on Share. Paste the service account email and click Send.

Share spreadsheet with google service account

6. ESP32 with BME280 Circuit

For this particular example, we’ll log data from a BME280 sensor. So, you need to wire a BME280 sensor to your ESP32. You can also use any other sensor you’re familiar with or adjust the code to publish random values if you don’t have a sensor at hand.

Not familiar with the BME280 sensor? Read our getting started guide: ESP32 with BME280 Sensor using Arduino IDE (Pressure, Temperature, Humidity).

Schematic Diagram

We’re going to use I2C communication with the BME280 sensor module. For that, wire the sensor to the default ESP32 SCL (GPIO 22) and SDA (GPIO 21) pins, as shown in the following schematic diagram.

View raw code

Insert your network credentials on the following variables.

#define WIFI_SSID "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSID"
#define WIFI_PASSWORD "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PASSWORD"

Insert your project ID, your client email, and your private key (you can find these details on the JSON file you downloaded in the previous steps).

// Google Project ID
#define PROJECT_ID "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PROJECT_ID"

// Service Account's client email
#define CLIENT_EMAIL "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_CLIENT_EMAIL"

// Service Account's private key
const char PRIVATE_KEY[] PROGMEM = "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\ REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n";

Finally, insert the ID of the spreadsheet you want to publish your data.

// The ID of the spreadsheet where you'll publish the data
const char spreadsheetId[] = "YOUR_SPREADSHEET_ID";

Note: if your Google Sheets is not in English language, you might need to change Sheet1 with the corresponding in your language on the following line.

bool success = GSheet.values.append(&response /* returned response */, spreadsheetId /* spreadsheet Id to append */, "Sheet1!A1" /* range to append */, &valueRange /* data range to append */);

You can now upload the code to your ESP32 board.

How the Code Works

Continue reading to learn how the code works, or skip to the Demonstration section.

Including Libraries

First, include the required libraries. We need the WiFi library to connect our board to the internet, the Adafruit_sensor and Adafruit_BME280 to interface with the BME280, the time.h library to get the timestamp and finally, the ESP_Google_Sheet_Client to interface the ESP32 with Google Sheets.

Network Credentials

Insert your network credentials on the following variables.

#define WIFI_SSID "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSID"
#define WIFI_PASSWORD "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PASSWORD"

Project Details

Insert your project ID, service account email, and account private key. All these details can be found on the JSON file you downloaded previously.

//Google Project ID
#define PROJECT_ID "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PROJECT_ID"

// Service Account's client email
#define CLIENT_EMAIL "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_CLIENT_EMAIL"

// Service Account's private key
const char PRIVATE_KEY[] PROGMEM = "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\ REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n";

Insert the google spreadsheet id on the following variable.

const char spreadsheetId[] = "YOUR_SPREADSHEET_ID";

BME280 Variables

Create an instance for the BME280 called bme and create variables to save temperature, humidity, and pressure.

// BME280 I2C
Adafruit_BME280 bme;
// Variables to hold sensor readings
float temp;
float hum;
float pres;

Timestamp Variables

We create a variable with the ntp server we’ll request time from and a variable to save the current epoch time.

// NTP server to request epoch time
const char* ntpServer = "pool.ntp.org";

// Variable to save current epoch time
unsigned long epochTime;

We also create a function to return the current epoch time called getTime().

// Function that gets current epoch time
unsigned long getTime() {
  time_t now;
  struct tm timeinfo;
  if (!getLocalTime(&timeinfo)) {
    //Serial.println("Failed to obtain time");
    return(0);
  }
  time(&now);
  return now;
}

Learn more about epoch time with the ESP32: Get Epoch/Unix Time with the ESP32 (Arduino).

setup()

In the setup(), initialize the Serial Monitor for debugging purposes.

Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println();
Serial.println();

Configure the time.

//Configure time
configTime(0, 0, ntpServer);

Initialize the BME280 sensor.

// Initialize BME280 sensor 
if (!bme.begin(0x76)) {
  Serial.println("Could not find a valid BME280 sensor, check wiring!");
  while (1);
}

Connect the ESP32 to your local network.

// Connect to Wi-Fi
WiFi.setAutoReconnect(true);
WiFi.begin(WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD);
  
Serial.print("Connecting to Wi-Fi");
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
  Serial.print(".");
  delay(1000);
}
Serial.println();
Serial.print("Connected with IP: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
Serial.println();

Then, the following lines configure and initiate the authentication process for accessing Google APIs, including setting up a callback for token generation status, specifying a token refresh interval, and starting the generation of an access token with the relevant authentication credentials (CLIENT_EMAIL, PROJECT_ID, and PRIVATE_KEY that you’ve defined previously).

// Set the callback for Google API access token generation status (for debug only)
GSheet.setTokenCallback(tokenStatusCallback);

// Set the seconds to refresh the auth token before expire (60 to 3540, default is 300 seconds)
GSheet.setPrerefreshSeconds(10 * 60);

// Begin the access token generation for Google API authentication
GSheet.begin(CLIENT_EMAIL, PROJECT_ID, PRIVATE_KEY);

loop()

In the loop(), you need to call the following line so that it constantly checks the authentication.

bool ready = GSheet.ready();

Then, we’ll periodically publish sensor readings to Google Sheets. You can adjust the interval on the timerDelay variable defined at the start of the code.

if (ready && millis() - lastTime > timerDelay){

We create a JSON object called valueRange where we’ll add our data. The Google Sheets Client library we’re using with the ESP32 uses the FirebaseJson library to handle JSON objects. To keep compatibility with other examples in the library, we’re also using that library.

FirebaseJson valueRange;

We then get new BME280 readings and a corresponding timestamp.

// New BME280 sensor readings
temp = bme.readTemperature();
//temp = 1.8*bme.readTemperature() + 32;
hum = bme.readHumidity();
pres = bme.readPressure()/100.0F;
// Get timestamp
epochTime = getTime();

These values are added to a FirebaseJson object (valueRange).

valueRange.add("majorDimension", "COLUMNS");
valueRange.set("values/[0]/[0]", epochTime);
valueRange.set("values/[1]/[0]", temp);
valueRange.set("values/[2]/[0]", hum);
valueRange.set("values/[3]/[0]", pres);

The valueRange object is configured to have a “COLUMNS” major dimension, indicating that the data will be organized column-wise. The timestamp will be located at the first column, first row; the temperature in the second column, first row, etc. If you want to organize in rows, you can pass “ROWS” as an argument instead.

Then, append this data to a specific sheet (Sheet1) starting at cell A1 in a Google Spreadsheet identified by its spreadsheetId. The values in valueRange are mapped to specific cells in the sheet, such as the timestamp in column A and the sensor readings in subsequent columns.

// Append values to the spreadsheet
bool success = GSheet.values.append(&response /* returned response */, spreadsheetId /* spreadsheet Id to append */, "Sheet1!A1" /* range to append */, &valueRange /* data range to append */);
if (success){
    response.toString(Serial, true);
    valueRange.clear();
}
else{
    Serial.println(GSheet.errorReason());
}

Note: if your Google Sheets is not in English language, you might need to change Sheet1 with the corresponding in your language on the following line.

bool success = GSheet.values.append(&response /* returned response */, spreadsheetId /* spreadsheet Id to append */, "Sheet1!A1" /* range to append */, &valueRange /* data range to append */);

Demonstration

After uploading the code to the ESP32, open the Serial Monitor to check the process.

The ESP32 should successfully connect to your Wi-Fi network and after 30 seconds, it should publish its first reading.

ESP32 Publishing to Google Sheets Serial Monitor

Open the spreadsheet where you’re publishing the values. You should see new values being published in real-time. The first column contains the epoch time, then the temperature in Celsius degrees, the humidity, and finally the pressure in hPa.

ESP32 Data Published to Google Spreadsheet

We’re using the timestamp in epoch time. To convert it to a readable format, you can simply use the EPOCHTODATE() function.

Wrapping Up

We hope you’ve found this project useful. As an example, we’ve shown you how to log data from a BME280 sensor, but you easily modify this project to use any other sensor. We have tutorials for more than 25 sensors with the ESP32.

The Arduino Google Sheets Client library has many other features and useful methods that might be handy for your project. For example, instead of you having to create the spreadsheet manually, the library comes with a method to automatically create the spreadsheet. It can also read, update, and append data to the spreadsheet. We recommend taking a look at the library examples to have an idea of what this powerful library can do.

We also have a similar project, but using a different approach. Instead of using a Google Service Account, we use IFTTT services: ESP32 Publish Sensor Readings to Google Sheets using IFTTT. This method is more limited, but might also be a good option depending on your project requirements.

This is great! I was able to update my project that was using IFTTT applet with this publishing method and it worked!
I am publishing OBDII data from my EV car. Some values were of “Char” type. I had to modify those otherwise I was getting compile errors. Other thing, since I am using french language, my google sheet was named “Feuille 1” instead of “Sheet1”. This was preventing parsing since it could not find a sheet names “Sheet1”.

    Hello Sara,
    
    As I’m using the esp32 in my car, I have setup my phone as a wifi hotspot to access internet. When I’m in an area where the cellular signal is weak, I get errors sending data to Google sheet. After some unsuccessful transmit, the ESP32 crashes and reboots. I was not getting these ESP32 reboot when using the IFTTT applet.
    
    I am using a 3.5″ display, I didn’t want the displayed values to be interrupted while data is sent to Google sheet, so I use xTaskCreatePinnedToCore to run the Datalogging on Core 0 instead of having the code in the Loop. I set the Task priority to 0 and stack size to 10000. I was not able to capture the error message since this behavior is a bit random and I don’t have a Serial monitor.
    
    In the following code:
    if (success){
    response.toString(Serial, true);
    valueRange.clear();
    }
    else{
    Serial.println(GSheet.errorReason());
    }
    
    valueRange is cleared if data if successfully sent to Google sheet. Should I clear it also in case of an error?

This is great, it makes transmission of data much easier. I am curious approximately when was this service of being able to use this api to send data directly made available, I have been trying to find a direct way such as this for years?

Hi Sara, thanks a lot for this excellent project. It works fine!
Only one comment for those not living in an English speaking country:
When addressing the spreadsheet, one eventually must change the sheet name into the local name.
For instance here in Germany one must use “Tabelle1!A1” instead of “Sheet1!A1”
It took me a while to debug this small problem.
Thank for your great work, Sara!

Hello,

Everything went smoothly til Step 5 where I was unable to paste the service account email address from the .json file into the Share function of the Spreadsheet Log.
There is a data entry block for Add People and Groups but it will not allow me to paste
the service account email address into the field.
Any ideas,

I found it useful to double click on the sheet name and change it to something meaningful. That makes it easier to use multiple sheets in the same workbook for different data sources.

    In the code, there’s also a comment mentioning it is the ID of the spreadsheet,
    // The ID of the spreadsheet where you’ll publish the data
    const char spreadsheetId[] = “YOUR_SPREADSHEET_ID”;

Great project … thank you.

I was receiving this error message in Serial Monitor and Google Sheet wasn’t getting updated:

Guru Meditation Error: Core 1 panic’ed (LoadProhibited). Exception was unhandled.

The issue was that I wasn’t including the Private Key properly. In Jason file the Private Key is a long string. Copy the entire line from Jason file into Arduino Sketch.

Once I entered the Private Key completely, it started to work and Google sheet updates with the data now.

Token info: type = OAuth2.0 access token, status = on signing
Token info: type = OAuth2.0 access token, status = error
Token error: code: -107, message:

Anyone have any idea where to look to resolve this?

Looking at the GS_errors.h
#define ESP_GOOGLE_SHEET_CLIENT_ERROR_RANGE -100
and
#define ESP_GOOGLE_SHEET_CLIENT_ERROR_TOKEN_PARSE_PK /* */ (ESP_GOOGLE_SHEET_CLIENT_ERROR_RANGE – 7)

Both point to the SHEET_CLIENT_ERROR_RANGE but this really doesn’t tell me anything.

  Frank…
  I had this same issue and I wish I knew what I was doing enough to explain how exactly I fixed it…but I did get it working after two days of trying all kinds of stuff.
  
  Firstly, I had trouble creating the RSA Key. But I followed the link on disabling organization policies… https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/secure-by-default-organizations?_gl=1*nuan65*_ga*MTU1MTI2NzI2Ni4xNzM0MTM4Nzcy*_ga_WH2QY8WWF5*MTczNDE5NjM2Ni41LjEuMTczNDE5NjU2OS42MC4wLjA.#disable_organization_policies
  
  I had to go into something called the google cloud SKD and run the command:
  
  Cloud SDK>gcloud org-policies delete iam.disableServiceAccountKeyCreation –organization=62373103449
  Deleted policy [organizations/62373103449/policies/iam.disableServiceAccountKeyCreation].
  {}
  
  This deleted the policy and let me create a Key. I was feeling good, but then I got the same error message you got.
  I went back to the Project and made the policy the same as the parent. I had been playing with these settings for quite a while. I also had to reenable the two google API’s. And then IT WORKED.
  
  I don’t really have any understanding about what is really going on with this stuff, but I am glad my persistence paid off. Good luck to you.

Hi Sara, great tutorial! I’ve made a slightly amended version of the code in your example, whereby rather than sending periodic sensor values through to google sheets, it does so when an event occurs (button press), reading the time and date from an RTC module, which all works fine so far. What I’m struggling with is that after 5 minutes of inactivity, the module fails to post to google sheets, but then on a second press will start working again as usual (until a further 5 minutes of inactivity). Any ideas on how to get around this? I’m trying to use as a rain gauge which will have large amounts of inactivity. Thanks, Matt

    Hi Frank, thanks for the reply! Yes I’ve tried giving that a go to alter, but doesnt seem to help. Its almost like my ESP32 goes to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity. The tutorial above is geared to constant logging whereas my application only logs on a button press so not sure if thats something to do with it? If i constantly press my button every few seconds it continues to work perfectly past 5 minutes without fail, its the period of inactivity thats causing it. Wondering if its losing authentification or similar?
    
    I get the below writing to serial monitor after the 5 minute mark once I press the button, then after this if i press the button again it works as normal posting to google sheets (almost waking it up and resetting connections?):

      Maybe, just a guess, this ‘about 5 minutes’ of action of your code has something to do with the limited execution time of Google Apps Scripts:

  I seem to have the same problem. Here a sensor should be sent every 10 minutes to the Google sheet. Tried experimenting with the GSheet.setPrerefreshSeconds(10 * 60); but not entrily sure what is happening there.
  if I choose an interval of 5 minutes it mostly skips each second one. so all in all I get on reading every 10 minutes in the Sheet. But I don’t think that’s how it should work.
  using the GSheet.begin(CLIENT_EMAIL, PROJECT_ID, PRIVATE_KEY);
  didn’t improve any of the behaviour either.
  
  tips are welcome!

HI Sara,
me too sometimes, as others have said in previous posts, randomly get the following error:

Add Spreadsheet Values…

Token info: type = OAuth2.0 access token, status = on initializing
Token info: type = OAuth2.0 access token, status = on signing
Token info: type = OAuth2.0 access token, status = on exchange request
Token info: type = OAuth2.0 access token, status = ready
unknown error

For example, if I set a data transmission every 15 minutes, I sometimes get 15 minutes and other times 30 minutes because one out of two (or more) I get the aforementioned error!

have you or anyone any suggestions please?
I can’t do it alone and I really need your help, please

Thank you in advance

  I don’t know whether it can be done directly from this library used here.
  
  I would work around your goal by:
  – preparing a new, empty sheet
  – use that sheet name in this script here so the data gets written there
  – write some code in Google’s Script Editor that
  + copies these data
  + finds the last non empty row on Sheet1
  + dumps the additional data from that point on
  + delete the data on the prepared sheet
  
  However, I’m comfortable with Script Editor, don’t know about you.

If you changed the hostname of your ESP32 (https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-useful-wi-fi-functions-arduino/#hostname) it is possible the only IP you get connected to is 255.255.255.255.

Change this in your code:
//WiFi.config(INADDR_NONE, INADDR_NONE, INADDR_NONE, INADDR_NONE);
WiFi.config(((u32_t)0x0UL),((u32_t)0x0UL),((u32_t)0x0UL));
WiFi.setHostname(hostname.c_str()); //define hostname

I am having difficulty creating the Key in the console.cloud.google service account. I have tried to change permissions with no luck. Maybe someone has a solution. It seems like the google team made a default of “The organization policy constraint ‘iam.disableServiceAccountKeyCreation’ is enforced on your organization.” and I am unable to un-enforce this policy.

Also, would this same idea work with the esp32 in softAP mode so that no wifi connection would be necessary?

Thanks for you tutorials. I don’t understand all of it, but learn something by plugging away at them.

I GOT IT!!!!

I think it was a permissions issue with the project having different permissions from the organization. I don’t even know what they really means….but I am getting data into a spreadsheet.

Thank you so much for posting these tutorials. It is a generous service you are providing. You can see what I am doing with this to make a very cheap curling rock timer system. http://www.larryrocktimer.com
