Original: Beyond the Grid: Building Secure, Zero-Cost B2B Client Portals on Google Sheets

Short summary

Shared Google Sheets with client-side filtering expose critical data isolation vulnerabilities when teams need to provide clients secure, role-based access. This guide details a three-step server-side architecture—bespoke authentication, cloud verification, and isolated data extraction—that prevents cross-client data exposure while maintaining zero hosting costs. Deploy using Google Apps Script with administrative permissions, relational Client ID schema design, and eliminate expensive SaaS portal platforms entirely.

  • Client-side filtering in shared spreadsheets creates exploitable data isolation vulnerabilities
  • Server-side architecture with three-step authentication handshake ensures only matching data reaches each client
  • Relational schema with Client ID keys enables zero-cost B2B portals via Google Apps Script admin execution
