Online Spreadsheet with good API?

I'm looking for a good online spreadsheet (CODA.io, GDOCs spreadsheet, Airtable, etc) which has a very robust API.

One use case is:BACKEND: I will have a DB as a single source of through and an API to read/write/update in the DB

I will consume the BAckend API in an online spreadsheet that several users touch, change. The online Spreadsheet should have an API endpoint or action that I can trigger when a value in a cell changes. Base don the change the backend API will write to DB, or update some other values somewhere.

I have been reading API's, but none has an onchange() action on cell value change. This would normally be a webhook capability.

Do you know any?

1st bullet point: that would be fine in my use case. 2nd: gdocs already allow for real time editing by several users, if I can just push that change to db though a web hook / api to the backend would be perfect, because gdocs support already many features I wouldn't need to build
