Reverse ETL

ELT vs. reverse ETL: Google Sheets and Databricks

ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) moves data from Google Sheets into Databricks for analysis. This is the approach shown on this page, and the one to use for dashboards, reports, and data models.

Reverse ETL works the other direction: it pushes enriched data from Databricks back into Google Sheets. For example, you could sync computed lead scores or customer segments from your warehouse into Google Sheets to personalize outreach.

Weld supports both directions, so you can build a complete data loop between Google Sheets and Databricks.

Databricks to Google Sheets

Incremental syncing: Weld uses incremental syncing where supported by the Google Sheets API, loading only new and updated records to minimize data transfer and warehouse costs.
Schema handling: Weld automatically manages schema changes. If Google Sheets adds new fields, they're detected and added to the corresponding Databricks tables.
Data freshness: Sync frequency depends on your Weld plan. Most connectors support schedules from every 5 minutes up to daily intervals.
Security: All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Weld is SOC 2 Type II compliant and supports IP whitelisting for database connections.
