=VERVE("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "field", "morse")

Encode and decode Morse from a cell. Converts text to Morse and back down a column — Sheets or Excel.

It's one of 250+ 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.

A real example — the input you type, and the values you can pull from it. Click any cell to see the formula behind it.

One value per row

Fill =VERVE("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "field", "morse") down a column and Morse Code returns a result for every row — a batch of live values in a single drag, no code.

Enrich data in place

Add Morse Code beside a table you already have to append its output right where your data lives, then sort, filter, or chart on it.

Stays fresh on its own

Set the sheet to refresh on a schedule and the morse code values keep themselves current without anyone re-typing.

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("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "field", "morse")
Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same source, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Excel namespaces it as VERVE.CALL. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE.CALL("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "field", "morse")

Tune the result by adding name=value before the field argument — in any order. Leave one out and its default applies.

  • audioPremium

    Set to true to include an audio file of the Morse code

    =VERVE("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "audio", "false")

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

Premium marks data included on paid plans. On the Free plan a marked field is withheld and a marked input is ignored — either way the cell reads #PREMIUM(name) instead of a value, so a gated answer can never be mistaken for a real one. Everything unmarked works on every plan. Compare plans

Morse Code, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Morse Code into Google Sheets?
Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in once with your key, and type =VERVE("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "field", "morse") into any cell. The "field" argument names the value you want back, so the cell resolves to a single number or string you can chart, sort, or feed into another formula.
What data can I pull from Morse Code?
Morse Code returns morse, stats, stats.characters, stats.dits and stats.dahs, plus 7 more — name any one of them as the "field" argument and that value lands in the cell. Leave the field out and the whole record spills into a two-column table instead.
Can I narrow what Morse Code returns?
Yes — Morse Code takes "audio" as optional inputs. They go in as "name", value pairs after the required ones, in any order, so =VERVE("morsecode", "This Is A Message", "audio", "false") shapes the result without changing anything else.
Can I fill a whole column of Morse Code at once?
Yes. Put your text values down a column and point the formula at the range — A2:A50 instead of A2 — and one call returns a value for every row. Dragging the formula down works too, but the range form is a single billed call per column rather than one per cell.
How many credits does each Morse Code cell cost?
Each resolved cell costs 1 credit. A cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a sheet you aren't touching doesn't keep charging.
Does Morse Code work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?
Yes — same arguments, same key, same fields. Excel namespaces custom functions, so the call is =VERVE.CALL() there and =VERVE() in Google Sheets; nothing else about it changes.

Put Morse Code in your next spreadsheet. Add the extension, paste the formula, and the cell keeps itself current.
