In this structure, the important data is contained in the values key, which itself is a list of lists. This is where new developers often get stuck.

Understanding the Data Structure

To tackle this, let’s first understand the structure:

range: This indicates the range of your data in Google Sheets.

majorDimension: This tells you the orientation of the data (ROWS or COLUMNS).

values: This is a list of lists, where each inner list contains values corresponding to the headers (like Time, Name, etc.).

Accessing the Data in C#

To retrieve the required data from the JSON structure in Unity, you'll need to follow these steps:
