Google spreadsheet direct download link for only ONE sheet as excel

You can download a specific sheet using the 'GID'.

Each sheet has a GID, you can find GID of specific sheet in the URL of spreadsheet. Then you can use this link to download specific sheet -

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d//export?format=xlsx&gid=

ex: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D5vzPaOJOx402RAEF41235qQTOs28_M51ee5glzPzj0/export?format=xlsx&gid=1990092150

KEY is the unique ID of the spreadsheet.

From what I've found, the other two answers on this post are exactly correct, all you need to do is replace this:

/edit#gid=

with:

/export?format=xlsx&gid=

This works just fine although I did find that I had to keep looking up this string and copying it. Instead, I made a quick Javascript snippet that does all the work for you:

Just run the code snippet below and drag the link it creates into your bookmarks bar. I know this is a little hacky but for some reason, stackoverflow doesn't want me injecting javascript into the links I provide.

<a href="javascript:var%20winURL%20=%20window.location.href;if(winURL.indexOf('/edit#gid=')%20%3E%200)%7Bwindow.location.assign(winURL.replace('/edit#gid=',%20'/export?format=xlsx&gid='));%7Delse%7Balert('Incorrect%20URL%20format');%7D">Export Sheet as Excel</a>

I've tested this on the latest versions of Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. They all work although you might have to get a little creative about how you make your bookmarks.

I am able to download all sheets of a spreadsheet.

Just remove anything after

/edit?

and replace with

/export?format=xlsx 

for Excel

or

/export?format=pdf

for PDF

when you see every Google spreadsheet url looks like this

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D5vzPaOJOx402RAEF41235qQTOs28_M51ee5glzPzj0/edit#gid=1078561300

In every spreadsheet URL we can see: /edit#gid=

this is generally the default mode.

/edit#gid=

just replace it with:

/export?format=xlsx&gid=

it will download the single spreadsheet from the workbook
