Connect your Rows.com account to any AI agent and take full control of your spreadsheet-based data orchestration and collaborative workflows through natural conversation. Rows provides a modern spreadsheet platform with built-in integrations, and this integration allows you to retrieve row metadata, update cell values, and perform complex data queries directly from your chat interface.
What you can do
- Spreadsheet & Table Orchestration — List all managed spreadsheets and retrieve detailed metadata, including table structures programmatically.
- Data Value Intelligence — Access and monitor range values to retrieve real-time spreadsheet data directly from the AI interface.
- Cell Lifecycle Management — Update and append values to specific ranges to ensure your records are always synchronized via natural language.
- Folder & Organization Control — List and search through your folders to maintain a clear overview of your digital workspace.
- Operational Monitoring — Track system activity and manage spreadsheet metadata using simple AI commands to streamline your business workflows.
How it works

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the values for a specific cell range in a Rows spreadsheet?
Yes! Use the get_range_values tool. Provide the Spreadsheet ID, Table ID, and the Range (e.g., 'A1:C10'), and your agent will return the current values instantly.
How do I find my Rows.com API Key?
Log in to Rows, go to your Workspace Settings, click the Rows API tab, and you will find your unique secret API key there.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
