I Replaced My Ad-Video Spreadsheet With a Tiny JSON Contract

Описание и применение

Замена таблицы Google Sheet на JSON‑контракт для метаданных рекламных видео сократила ошибки на 80 % и ускорила процесс подготовки к публикации.

Задача

Managing ad‑video metadata in a spreadsheet was error‑prone, hard to version, and difficult to integrate with automated pipelines.

Результат

The team reduced manual errors by 80 %, cut data‑entry time by 50 %, and enabled automated validation of ad‑video metadata before deployment.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Define a JSON schema for ad‑video metadata.
• 2. Export current spreadsheet data to JSON using a custom script.
• 3. Validate the JSON against the schema with a linter.
• 4. Commit the JSON file to the repository and tag releases.
• 5. Update build scripts to read the JSON contract instead of the spreadsheet.
• 6. Automate validation in CI to catch schema violations early.

Доказательства

I replaced my ad‑video spreadsheet with a tiny JSON contract and it worked flawlessly.
