Gravatar Lookup in Google Sheets & Excel — =VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2)

What this pulls

Resolve emails to profiles by the row. =VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2) pulls the public Gravatar profile for each email — Google Sheets or Excel.

It's one of 300+ live sources you reach with a single =VERVE()function — served from APIVerve's production data engine, billed at 1 credit per resolved cell, and refreshed on whatever cadence you set. No API keys to wrangle, no scripts, no exports.

Ways to use it

Turn IDs into detail

Fill =VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2) down a column of identifiers and expand each into full, structured detail — no manual lookups.

Enrich a table in place

Add Gravatar Lookup beside your existing rows to append the fields you were missing, right where the data lives.

Keep it current

Let auto-refresh re-resolve the column on a schedule so the enriched data never goes stale.

Use it in your sheet

The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.

Google SheetsAdd-on

Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.

=VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2)

Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same function, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2)

Fields you can pull

Add a field name as the last argument to land just that value in the cell.

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Gravatar Lookup into a spreadsheet?

Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in with your key, and type =VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2) into any cell. The same function works in Google Sheets and Excel — no scripts, no API wiring.

How many credits does each Gravatar Lookup cell cost?

Each resolved cell costs 1 credit. Filling a column of ten rows costs ten times that; a cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a static sheet doesn't keep charging.

Can I fill a whole column at once?

Yes. Reference a range instead of a single cell — e.g. point Gravatar Lookup at A2:A50 — and it returns a value for every row in one call, or just drag =VERVE("gravatarlookup", A2) down like any spreadsheet function.

Does Gravatar Lookup work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?

Yes. It's the same =VERVE() function with the same arguments and the same key in both — build a sheet in one and it behaves identically in the other.

How current is the data?

Gravatar Lookup is served live from APIVerve's production data engine, and cells recalculate on the refresh cadence you choose — every open, hourly, or every 30 minutes.

Where does the data come from, and what shows on my bill?

VerveSheets runs on APIVerve, our production data engine; Gravatar Lookup is one of 300+ sources on the same key. Invoices and card statements show APIVERVE.
