I am planning on using the Google Documents List, and Google Documents Spreadsheet API's for uploading a database from my app to a spreadsheet online and then editing it.

I just wanted to know if these API's would be the right approach for using Google docs as an online storage space for the data that I have collected in my app.

I was hoping that I could just get feedback from some of you who might have experience with this.

The links for both API's are listed below:

http://code.google.com/apis/spreadsheets/

Thanks in advance!

For accessing Google APIs on the android platform, the Google APIs Client Library for Java is the way to go.

It includes sample apps for the Documents and Spreadsheet APIs.
