Free Google Sheets Search Web App with CSV & PDF Export

A web app that puts a search box in front of a Google Sheet. Instead of sharing the whole spreadsheet with staff or customers — where one stray edit breaks a column — you give them a page that reads the sheet, filters it, and lets them export what they found.

What it does

The app connects to your sheet and retrieves records on demand, filtered by what the user typed. The demo is an order search, which is the most common use: someone needs one order out of thousands of rows and should not be scrolling a spreadsheet to find it. Results can be exported to CSV or PDF or copied to the clipboard, so the answer can be passed on without anyone touching the source data. The layout is responsive, so it works from a phone.

Highlights

• Retrieve and filter Google Sheets data from a web page
• Order search built as the working example
• Export to CSV and PDF, or copy to clipboard
• Read-only access to the data — the sheet cannot be edited by mistake
• Responsive, mobile-friendly interface

Who it is for

Anyone sitting on a large sheet that other people need to look things up in — orders, stock, members, records — and anyone learning how to connect a front-end to Google Sheets with Apps Script. It is one of the most watched builds on the channel because it is the foundation under most of the bigger systems.
