Get the sun's angle from a cell. =VERVE("sunposition", 37.77, -122.42) returns altitude and azimuth for any place and time — 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.
A real example — these inputs, and the values they land in your sheet.
Fill =VERVE("sunposition", 37.77, -122.42) down a column and Sun Position returns a result for every row — a batch of live values in a single drag, no code.
Add Sun Position beside a table you already have to append its output right where your data lives, then sort, filter, or chart on it.
Set the sheet to refresh on a schedule and the sun position 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.
Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.
