Description
Managing game data can be hard and there are many ways to do it. This is a method I’ve been using for my current project Hexagod which utilizes Google Sheets and the Export Sheet Data extension to export the data as JSON.
Note: It seems like there is some strange google security stuff with the extension I show(possibly an config thing for the app owner). Which is odd because it is clearly working for me. As a work around you can export as CSV and then use a site to convert from CSV to JSON. There are a lot of them if you do a quick google search.
