[andresduarte94]

Environment details

2. OS type and version: N/A
3. Java version: 1.8
4. google-api-client version(s): v4-rev20191115-1.30.3

Steps to reproduce

1. Starting from the Sheets Java quickstart [2], use the below code in the main function.
2. Create a Spreadsheet and replace its ID in the code above.
3. Run the code.

Expected behavior: It should update cells A1, B1, C1, E1 and G1. Leaving D1 and F1 as they were.

Actual behavior: It’s updating cells A1, B1, C1, D1 and E1.

Code example

Sheets sheetService = new Sheets.Builder(HTTP_TRANSPORT, JSON_FACTORY, getCredentials(HTTP_TRANSPORT)).setApplicationName(APPLICATION_NAME).build();
        String range1 = "Sheet1!A1:G1";
        List<List<Object>> values = Arrays.asList(Arrays.asList("1", "2", "3", null, "5", null, “7”));
        ValueRange vRange = new ValueRange();
        vRange.setRange(range1);
        vRange.setValues(values);
        vRange.setMajorDimension("ROWS");
        try {
            System.out.println(sheetService.spreadsheets().values().update("[SPREADSHEET-ID]", range1, vRange)
                    .setValueInputOption("USER_ENTERED")
                    .setResponseDateTimeRenderOption("FORMATTED_STRING")
                    .execute().toPrettyString());
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Any additional information below

1. According to Sheets API documentation writing selectively to a range is supported [3].
2. From “Try this API” it’s working as expected with this request [4].
