Show HN: Save content to Google Sheets with one click
Using the extension, you can predefine the destination sheet and column where you want to save content, and then save/add content from any webpage with a right-click. The destination location becomes an option in your right-click context menu.

Also, I just added functionality to the Pro version find all emails, links, and image URLs on a page and save those directly to a Google Sheets location (re: above). Or, save the lists to multiple sheets or columns at the same time if you have a group configured in the extension.I wanted to make it more of a nice experience and low-friction to save over to GSheets. And then leverage Sheets for automations and additional filtering. I feel like trying to do all of that within an extension makes for a poor experience.

re: permissions

The extension uses an embedded Google File picker to allow you to select what Sheets to allow access to. Until you do that, the extension doesn't have r/w access. The integration with Google (OAuth) has been verified and gone through their review process to only request/use minimal perms for the extension to function as expected. The extension only has access to the files that you allow it to have access to.
