What I really want to see is how to automate data out of Sheets to do different tasks through Python. This was awesome though - time to practice.

Being somewhat familiar with Sheet scripts was super helpful as a TA I set up a grading spreadsheet for the professor and myself and then wrote a script to export a separate document for each student. It saved me hours of typing.

Although this video is about google sheets it really helped me to get started with google docs api. Thanks Tim!, by the way I recommend you make a video that focuses on docs, it took me a long time to find those on the internet, It can help a lot of people.
