New issue 698 by js...@rashiku1.com: [ New Google Sheets]How can we get od?
style worksheetid above "sheet2"?
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-python-client/issues/detail?id=698

In Old Spreadsheet, the following converting method (gid -> od?) has been
working.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11290337/how-to-convert-google-spreadsheets-worksheet-string-id-to-integer-index-gid

In New Google Sheets, gid specification has been changed as below:
sheet1 -> gid=0
sheet2 -> gid=[randomized numerical value over 8 digits]
sheet3 -> (same way with sheet2)

I would like to update cell in the worksheet I specified with worksheet id.
I tried the above converting method, but it doesn't work. It seems the
converting method doesn't execute in New Sheets.

Is there any alternative way?

The conversion method does not work for new Google Sheets.

i'm facing this particular issue as well with the new google
spreadsheets :( this post suggests that there is no easy way as it is
randomized:

the only way i can think of right now is to get the worksheet feeds and
parse the XML and work from there onwards...unless anybody else has a
better solution do share it!

@Elvin That is also the workaround I have implemented.

Has anyone figured this out yet ? I'm trying to get the worksheet id for
Sheet2 and on. But no luck yet.

Hi, I was facing the same problem and using the worksheet_id as the number
of sheet solved my issue.
Sheet 2 -> worksheet_id = 2
Sheet 3 -> worksheet_id = 3 and so on...
