Sort CSV, Excel, and Google Sheets by Column

Up to 3 sort levels, ascending or descending

Sort any spreadsheet by one, two, or three columns — each ascending or descending. Works on CSV, Excel, Google Sheets, BigQuery, and REST APIs. Free, in-browser, no signup, no upload.

How it works

Step 1
Connect your data
Upload CSV, Excel, or TSV, pick a Sheet from Google Drive, run a BigQuery query, or pull from a REST API.
Step 2
Pick columns and direction
Primary sort, plus optional secondary and tertiary sort columns — each ascending or descending.
Step 3
Download the sorted file
Header row stays on top, data rows reordered.

Want to schedule this, not just run it once?

Need your master Google Sheet kept sorted every time rows come in? Sheetgo can keep a live sort applied automatically — no one has to remember to do it.

Can I sort by multiple columns?

L
K

Yes, up to three levels. Add a primary sort, then a secondary for tie-breakers, then a tertiary if needed — each independently ascending or descending.

Does it handle dates correctly?

L
K

Yes — when a column is detected as dates, the tool sorts chronologically, not alphabetically.

Does sorting modify the headers?

L
K

No. The header row stays on top; only the data rows are reordered.

Can I sort data from BigQuery or an API?

L
K

Yes. Connect a BigQuery query or REST API endpoint and apply the same multi-level sort.

What else can I do with the Sheetgo add-on?

L
K

Beyond scheduled automation, the Sheetgo add-on — powered by Sheetgo Workflows — can send personalized emails from spreadsheet rows, generate Google Docs or PDFs as mail-merge outputs, chain multiple processing steps into one flow (for example: filter → merge → dedupe → email), and orchestrate approvals across teams. Everything runs unattended once set up. One-click install from Google Workspace Marketplace.

Which data sources can I connect to with Sheetgo?

L
K

With the Sheetgo add-on, your automated flows can pull from Google Sheets, Excel, CSV files in Google Drive, BigQuery (with live SQL queries), and any REST API using Bearer Token, API Key, or Basic authentication. The output can land back in a spreadsheet, a generated Google Doc or PDF, an email, or any combination chained in a Workflow.
