I am reading data from google sheets, writing data to google sheets, and want to rearrange the sheets inside the worksheet:
CLIENT_SECRET_GOOGLE_SHEETS = r"client_secret_google_sheets.json"
creds = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name(CLIENT_SECRET_GOOGLE_SHEETS, GSHEETS_SCOPES)
client = gspread.authorize(creds)
sheet = client.open("my_worksheet")
worksheet_list = sheet.worksheets()
# worksheet_list
[<Worksheet 'Documentation' id:35>,
<Worksheet 'week 2' id:15>,
<Worksheet 'week 1' id:20>]
I would like to change it to:
[<Worksheet 'Documentation' id:35>,
<Worksheet 'week 1' id:20>,
<Worksheet 'week 2' id:15>]
I tried searching for this functionality but was not able to find it in gspread
documentation.
UPDATE
After using Tanaike's answer the order is not consistent:
[<Worksheet 'Documentation' id:35>,
<Worksheet 'week 1' id:20>,
<Worksheet 'week 10' id:150>,
<Worksheet 'week 11' id:16>,
<Worksheet 'week 2' id:115>,]

I believe your goal is as follows.
- You want to realign the sheets in a Google Spreadsheet.
- You don't want to include the 1st worksheet. You want to sort other sheets except for 1st tab by the sheet name.
- You want to achieve this using gspread for python.
In this case, how about the following sample script?
Sample script:
In this modification, the sheets except for the 1st tab are sorted by the batchUpdate method.
client = ### # Please use your client in your script.
spreadsheetId = "###" # Please set the Spreadsheet ID.
# 1. Retrieve all sheets.
spreadsheet = client.open_by_key(spreadsheetId)
sheets = spreadsheet.worksheets()
sheets.pop(0)
# 2. Sort sheets except for 1st tab.
sortedSheets = sorted(sheets, key=lambda x: x.title)
# 3. Create request body.
requests = []
for i, sheet in enumerate(sortedSheets):
requests.append({
"updateSheetProperties": {
"properties": {
"index": i 1,
"sheetId": sheet.id
},
"fields": "index"
}
})
# 4. Request to Sheets API.
res = spreadsheet.batch_update({"requests": requests})
