Basically I am looking for updating the google sheet from my linux/unix box using shell scripts. Since I couldnt find much with shell scripts , thought of using python to update the google sheet. Most answers were redirecting to create google project for its api key / OAuth key.
I could not create a project in google api / generate a api key as i dont have access to create one at organization level / no organization level. Its asking for location to choose and I dont find any.

Is there any other way to update a google sheet with wget or sudo or CURL or any other method in python ?

You actually don't need an organization to create an API Key, when you click on "New Project" in the Google Cloud Platform you can leave it blank.

Then you have to use the api key in your python code to be able to access your sheets.

No , it asks for location to be browsed. And pops up "you do not have the required resourcemanager.projects.create permission to create a project"
are you using your personal google account? if you have another account try with it to check if the same behavior happens.
Using for a buisness account , and due to security reasons couldnt able to create one :(
Well an idea could be to share your spreadsheet with account with full privilege and then using it for the python calls.
Sounds like a brilliant one , but how do we call from python with just gsheet shareable link ? Any example would be really helpful
