CSV to Google Sheets python-CodePudding

I have a CSV that I want to put into a google sheet into sheet3 of many. I was hoping someone can help me complete this code. I am using Google API. So far I have gotten the csv to upload to the google drive. Now I would like to change the code to update a specific google sheet in sheet3 instead of creating a new sheet. Bellow you will find the code that I am using to create a new sheet with the CSV data.

# Import Csv to Google Drive
import os
import glob

from pydrive.auth import GoogleAuth
from pydrive.drive import GoogleDrive
gauth = GoogleAuth()           
drive = GoogleDrive(gauth)  

 
# line used to change the directory
os.chdir(r'DIRECTORY OF CSV')

list_of_files = glob.glob('DIRECTORY OF CSV\*') # * means all if need specific format then *.csv
latest_file = max(list_of_files, key=os.path.getctime)
print(latest_file)

upload_file_list = [latest_file]
for upload_file in upload_file_list:
    gfile = drive.CreateFile({'parents': [{'id': 'THE GOOGLE ID'}]})
    # Read file and set it as the content of this instance.
    gfile.SetContentFile(upload_file)
    gfile.Upload() # Upload the file.

I believe your goal is as follows.

You want to put CSV data to the specific sheet of a Google Spreadsheet.
You want to achieve this using python.
You have already been able to get and put values to the Spreadsheet using Sheets API.

In this case, how about the following sample script?

Sample script 1:

When googleapis for python is used, how about the following sample script?

service = build("sheets", "v4", credentials=creds)  # Please use your script for authorization.
spreadsheet_id = "###"  # Please put your Spreadsheet ID.
sheet_name = "Sheet3"  # Please put the sheet ID of the sheet you want to use.
csv_file = "###"  # Please put the file path of the CSV file you want to use.

f = open(csv_file, "r")
values = [r for r in csv.reader(f)]
request = service.spreadsheets().values().update(spreadsheetId=spreadsheet_id, range=sheet_name, valueInputOption="USER_ENTERED", body={"values": values}).execute()

Sample script 2:

When gspread for python is used, how about the following sample script?

import gspread
import csv

client = gspread.oauth(###) # Please use your script for authorization.
spreadsheet_id = "###"  # Please put your Spreadsheet ID.
sheet_name = "Sheet3"  # Please put the sheet ID of the sheet you want to use.
csv_file = "###"  # Please put the file path of the CSV file you want to use.

spreadsheet = client.open_by_key(spreadsheet_id)
worksheet = spreadsheet.worksheet(sheet_name)
f = open(csv_file, "r")
values = [r for r in csv.reader(f)]
worksheet.update(values)

Note:

About both sample scripts, the CSV data is retrieved from a CSV file on your local PC, and the CSV data is converted to a 2-dimensional array and put the array to "Sheet3" of Google Spreadsheet using Sheets API. In this sample script, Drive API is not used.

Method: spreadsheets.values.update
