This code base used to be hosted athttp://blog.fastfedora.com/projects/import-json and contained a lot of useful information. It has been archived athttps://rawgit.com/bradjasper/ImportJSON/master/archive/blog.fastfedora.com/projects/import-json.html

Some of this if possible internally with Google App Scripts External APIs, like UrlFetch:https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/external

These require a Google account and an explicit permission, but in some cases may be a good fit.
