# Sync Apify Data to Google Sheets with Composite Keys

**Use case:** 

Keep a Google Sheet in sync with an Apify dataset using a composite upsert key (id + sku by default). Updates rows that match all key columns and appends the rest. Change the key column(s) to match columns that actually exist in your source dataset. The defaults are examples only. Add your credentials, spreadsheet, dataset, and adjust keyColumns as needed.

## Input

```json
{
  "operation": "dataset_to_sheet",
  "sheetName": "Sheet1",
  "writeMode": "upsert",
  "keyColumns": [
    "id",
    "sku"

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Reliable Google Sheets Bridge](https://apify.com/groundedvisionmedia/reliable-sheets-bridge.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/groundedvisionmedia/reliable-sheets-bridge.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/groundedvisionmedia/reliable-sheets-bridge.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
