Add multiple rows to Google Spreadsheet via API

Question

I can add a new row to a Google spreadsheet with this code:

$valueRange = new Google_Service_Sheets_ValueRange();
$valueRange->setValues(["values" => ['data1', 'data2']]);
$range = 'Sheet1!A1:A';
$conf = ["valueInputOption" => "USER_ENTERED"];
$service->spreadsheets_values->append($spreadsheetId, $range, $valueRange, $conf);

How should I change the setValues params to add multiple rows?

Thank you.

UPDATE

In the meantime I use this approach:

$range_number = 1; // Keep spreadsheet header
$data = array();
for($i=0;$i<count($data);$i++){
    $range_number++;
    $range = 'Sheet1!A'.$range_number.':XX';
    $values = array( array($data1[$i], $data2[$i], $data3[$i]) );
    $data[] = new Google_Service_Sheets_ValueRange(
        array( 'range' => $range, 'values' => $values )
    );
}
$body = new Google_Service_Sheets_BatchUpdateValuesRequest(array(
  'valueInputOption' => "USER_ENTERED",
  'data' => $data
));
$result = $service->spreadsheets_values->batchUpdate($spreadsheetId, $body);

// Clear rest of spreadsheet
$range_number++;
$range = 'Sheet1!A'.$range_number.':XX';
$clearRange = new Google_Service_Sheets_ClearValuesRequest();
$service->spreadsheets_values->clear($spreadsheetId, $range, $clearRange);

But this way I have to send the previous data as well. My goal would be just to append the new data.

Try to follow the Insert an empty row or column guide. Indicate "ROWS" as your "dimension" and add how many rows you want by using startIndex and endIndex.
