integrating google sheets with mysql can create a powerful workflow for managing and analyzing data. this tutorial will guide you through the process, explaining how to use google apps script to connect google sheets to a mysql database. you'll learn to execute sql queries, fetch data, and populate your google sheets with the results.

prerequisites

1. **google account**: you need a google account to access google sheets.
2. **mysql database**: you should have access to a mysql database. this can be hosted locally or on a cloud service.
3. **jdbc driver**: google apps script uses the jdbc service to connect to databases. ensure your mysql server allows remote connections if you're accessing it from outside its local network.

step 1: set up your mysql database

1. **create a database**: if you haven't already, create a database and a table. for example, let's create a simple "employees" table.

```sql
create database company;
use company;

create table employees (
id int auto_increment primary key,
name varchar(100),
role varchar(100),
salary decimal(10, 2)
);

insert into employees (name, role, salary) values
('alice', 'developer', 70000),
('bob', 'designer', 60000),
('charlie', 'manager', 80000);
```

step 2: prepare google sheets

1. **create a new google sheet**: open google sheets and create a new spreadsheet.
2. **set up headers**: in the first row of your sheet, create headers that match the data you'll pull from your mysql table, e.g., `id`, `name`, `role`, `salary`.

step 3: write google apps script

1. **open the apps script editor**:
go to `extensions apps script`.

2. **write the script**:
in the code editor, write a script to connect to your mysql database and fetch the data.

```javascript
function fetchemployeedata() {
var sheet = spreadsheetapp.getactivespreadsheet().getactivesheet();
sheet.clear(); // clear existing content

// set headers
