USB Vendor Lookup in Google Sheets & Excel — =VERVE("usbvendorlookup", A2, B2)

What this pulls

Identify USB devices by the row. =VERVE("usbvendorlookup", A2, B2) returns the manufacturer and product name — 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

Resolve a column of hosts

Fill =VERVE("usbvendorlookup", A2, B2) down your list of hosts or IPs and land the answer for each in its own row — no terminal, no scripts.

Enrich logs or inventories

Add USB Vendor Lookup's lookup beside an existing table to turn bare identifiers into readable, structured detail.

Compose checks

Combine the result with IF and conditional formatting to surface the rows that need attention.

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.

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull USB Vendor Lookup into a spreadsheet?

Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in with your key, and type =VERVE("usbvendorlookup", A2, B2) into any cell. The same function works in Google Sheets and Excel — no scripts, no API wiring.

How many credits does each USB Vendor 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 USB Vendor Lookup at A2:A50 — and it returns a value for every row in one call, or just drag =VERVE("usbvendorlookup", A2, B2) down like any spreadsheet function.

Does USB Vendor 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?

USB Vendor 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; USB Vendor Lookup is one of 300+ sources on the same key. Invoices and card statements show APIVERVE.
