Question

I’m using YQL to query a Google Spreadsheet for a list of ISBN’s. I’d like to take those ISBN’s and use Google Books API to generate a column of Google Preview buttons for those books.

Here’s a fiddle I’ve started:

Now in this example from Google, ISBNs are submitted as a form and that input is used by the Google API / JSON.

Is there a way to get Google’s API to take the ISBNs from the existing JSON object from my YQL instead of the input form?

The only way I’ve found to do something similar is via Google Books bookshelves (not with a spreadsheet or YQL). Here’s a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TECHg/1/
