    I'm not sure what group to address this question. So please suggest right one. I want to use Google Sheets as a database and I need to query it to verify some data. Is there a way to do it?

    I use spreadsheet Tasker plugin. For a similar purpose.

    I checked it but as I understood this plugin is to get specified data from the the GS and I need just to get true or false if that data exists in a Sheet. Correct me if I can do it with that plugin

    The short answer is you can't get a true if false from the plugin. However you can get information from the spreadsheet and generate a true or false using Autotools.

    The way I use it, I query the spreadsheet to get a json result. I then use autotools json read and filter the results. Then I flash a yes or no message if the information is there.

    Can I get JSON data with the row that contain specific data in some of the column? I mean if I send a phone number with the request can get a name of the person associated with this phone number?
