  First-party Google API client libraries that cover the Google Sheets API v4.
  Google ships one broad "Google API Client Library" per language (the Sheets
  service is a module within it) rather than a Sheets-only SDK. Verified against
  the public package registries (HTTP status recorded at fetch time) and the
  Sheets "Install client libraries" documentation. All are maintained by Google
  under the googleapis GitHub organization.
