Drop quiz content into cells. =VERVE("trivia", "science-technology") returns a question, answer and options — 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.

A real example — these inputs, and the values they land in your sheet.

Example resultpulled live from APIVerve1 credit / cell

One value per row

Fill =VERVE("trivia", "science-technology") down a column and Trivia Questions returns a result for every row — a batch of live values in a single drag, no code.

Enrich data in place

Add Trivia Questions 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 trivia questions 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.

Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

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

=VERVE("trivia", "science-technology")

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

Trivia Questions, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Trivia Questions into a spreadsheet?
Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in with your key, and type =VERVE("trivia", "science-technology") into any cell. The same function works in Google Sheets and Excel — no scripts, no API wiring.
How many credits does each Trivia Questions 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 Trivia Questions at A2:A50 — and it returns a value for every row in one call, or just drag =VERVE("trivia", "science-technology") down like any spreadsheet function.
Does Trivia Questions 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?
Trivia Questions 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; Trivia Questions is one of 300+ sources on the same key. Invoices and card statements show APIVERVE.

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