Quip_ is a collaborative productivity software suite for mobile and the Web. It allows groups of people to create and edit documents and spreadsheets as a group, typically for business purposes. (Wikipedia)_

A major difference between Quip and Google Docs/Sheets is that Quip has a native desktop app.

In this post, I will show you how to automate the process of creating, inserting into, and updating a Quip spreadsheet using its Python API client. To enhance the functionalities of the API, I made a fork of its official GitHub repository and incorporated some useful pull requests not yet merged into the master branch. Download quip.py from my repository to continue with this tutorial.
