Is it possible to run a python script from google sheets on a button press?
I had a similar problem. 
there is a tool set call 'gspread', which can read from python data from your Google sheets.
What I did is a script in the spread sheet, what filled a cell with "Start + time". You can trigger script with this with a button.
Now the python program read this cell every minute. If the cell contains the start trigger, if fires the python script. 
Not the nicest solution, but it works for a few years now.
I have a script that reads from a google sheet and uses the information to create tickets using the Jira python api. In my situation it won't work to have the script be triggered at a certain time, the script has to be triggered through the sheet. Is there some way to detect a button press or a cell change which runs my local python file?
