PreviousBG Database ConfigurationNextSetting up BG Database Locally

Last updated 6 months ago

Before we get started, you'll need to install BG Database from the Unity Asset store:

Once you have BG Database installed, Open the BG Database window (Window -> BG Database) and then install the Google Sheets plugin:

(You can just click 'Import Silently' or if you're paranoid click the interactive import to see the normal .unitypackage import dialog).

Setup Google Cloud project

This IS a requirement for you to be able to read from Google Sheets (basically you just need to enable the Google Sheets API in Google Cloud and add a credential).

Once you have completed these steps, you will need to:

  1. Configure the Data Source

  2. Configure an Import Job

And then you should be good to go!

It's free, no worries. Follow site and if you get stuck ping me on and I can try to help!
