Usage Example

**Required arguments are defined in the "Available Methods" section

from gsheet_api import GSheetAPI

gsheet = GSheetAPI(**)        # initialize the class
gsheet.sheet_to_df(**)        # import data from the sheet to a Pandas DataFrame

gsheet.change_gsheet(**)      # switch to a new Google Sheet to work off of
gsheet.get_cell(**)           # get the contents of a single cell

gsheet.change_tab(**)         # switch to a new tab in the current working Google Sheet
gsheet.set_cell(**)           # set the value of a single cell
gsheet.df_to_sheet(**)        # export a Pandas DataFrame to the current working sheet
gsheet.timestamp_to_cell(**)  # export a timestamp to a single cell in the sheet
