Google Sheets

Download One Tab (Direct Export Link)

Paste the tab URL with gid, choose CSV, Excel, PDF, etc., and instantly get a direct download link for that single sheet.

Before you paste:

  • Open your Google Sheet and click the tab you want to download.
  • Copy the URL while that tab is active (look for gid= in the URL).
  • Paste it below, choose a format, and generate the link—only that tab will export.

How to download a single tab (gid method)

1

Open the tab you need to export

Click the specific tab inside your Google Sheet. The URL must show gid= for that tab.

2

Copy that tab’s URL

Copy the browser URL while that tab is active (it should look like #gid=123456789), then paste it in the tool above.

3

Pick a format and generate the link

Choose CSV, TSV, XLSX, ODS, PDF, HTML, or ZIP. The generated link exports only that single tab, not the whole workbook.

Export one sheet in the format you need

Export a single tab as CSV, TSV, Excel (.xlsx), OpenDocument (.ods), PDF, HTML, or zipped HTML. PDF exports use Google's defaults; adjust page settings in Sheets if you need layout tweaks before downloading.

Notes

  • Anyone using the generated link still needs view permission to the sheet.
  • The link uses the tab’s gid, so it always points to that specific tab.
  • No data leaves your browser; everything is generated client-side.

FAQ: exporting one tab from Google Sheets

How do I download just one sheet instead of the whole Google Sheets file?

Open the tab you need, copy the URL that contains gid=, paste it above, choose a format, and generate the link. The link hits Google's official export endpoint for that gid only.

Where do I find the gid for my tab?

Click the tab at the bottom of the sheet. The browser URL will end with something like #gid=123456789. That number is the gid for the current tab.

Can I export one tab as CSV, Excel, or PDF?

Yes. Pick CSV, TSV, XLSX, ODS, PDF, HTML, or ZIP in the dropdown. The link will download only that tab in the chosen format.

Do viewers need permission to use the generated link?

Yes. The export link respects Google Sheets permissions. Anyone who opens it must have view access to the file.
