Spreadsheet UI for Firestore with low-code cloud automation
Rowy provides a spreadsheet-style interface for Firestore, enabling CRUD, bulk import/export, and low-code cloud function workflows—all managed from your browser without leaving your GCP project.
Rowy transforms Google Firestore into a familiar spreadsheet interface. Users can view, sort, filter, and edit documents directly in the browser, performing CRUD operations, bulk imports/exports (CSV, JSON, TSV), and managing multiple views of the same collection. All data stays in your own GCP project, and Rowy runs as a Cloud Run service, so no data is stored externally.
Beyond data entry, Rowy lets you attach cloud functions to field‑level changes. With access to any NPM package, you can build workflows that send emails via SendGrid, index records in Algolia, push metrics to BigQuery, or invoke custom APIs. Functions can be triggered manually through an “Action” field or automatically on updates.
Rowy provides granular role‑based permissions, built‑in user management, and customizable column visibility, enabling teams to collaborate safely. Over 30 field types—including rich text, file upload, relational connectors, and computed aggregates—let you model complex data without writing extensive code.
When teams consider Rowy, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.

Open-source low-code platform for rapidly building internal tools and CRUD web applications with minimal coding
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Content Management System for a Firestore‑backed website
Editors can update pages, images, and metadata via a familiar spreadsheet view, while changes trigger cloud functions to rebuild static sites.
Automated notification system
When a record’s status field changes, a Rowy cloud function sends emails via SendGrid and SMS via Twilio without writing server code.
Data migration and cleanup
Bulk import CSV data, apply validation rules, and run custom functions to normalize fields before publishing.
Role‑based admin panel for internal tools
Team members see only the columns and rows they’re permitted to edit, with audit logs captured in Firestore.
Rowy runs as a Cloud Run service in your own GCP project, so your data never leaves your Firestore.
Rowy is built specifically for Firestore; other databases are not supported.
Rowy inherits Firestore limits; performance depends on collection size, but typical spreadsheet workloads work smoothly.
You define cloud functions in JavaScript/TypeScript; Rowy deploys them to Cloud Functions, triggered by field changes or manual actions.
Rowy itself is open source; you only pay for the underlying GCP resources you provision.
