I have code below. I've created trigger for this function. Type of trigger by minutes - every 15 minutes. "A" cell is a number that should be copy to G column by trigger. When it runs as result I see #ERROR. I need help with this
Maybe this #ERROR shows after running Delete function? And something wrong with this function?
function hourChart() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("PvD (auto)");
var value = sheet.getRange("A1").getValue();
var range = sheet.getRange("G1:G").getValues();
var lastRow = null;
var i = 0;
while(i < range.length) {
if (range[i][0] !== "") {
i++
} else {
lastRow = i +1;
break;
}
}
sheet.getRange(`G${lastRow}`).setValue(value)
}
function hourChartDelete() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("PvD (auto)");
var range = sheet.getRange("G2:G");
range.clear();
}
Please look to file

I have the script below where some cells are protected because they contain formula but I can script linked to buttons that when executed, it updates the cell values in these protected cells, this is fine if you are the sheet owner but if you are not you get a error saying 'You are editing protected cells....'
I have seen some solutions where the script has been deployed as a web app and then set so it always runs as the owner but can't get this working for my use case, I deployed and set as to always run as me but this only seems like half the solution?
My code is below:

There are several posts about this, I'll paste a response from one from yesterday. What I recommend specifically in your case is to run the script when there's an edit bye the user in a certain cell. For example a Tickbox, or a Drop-down menu (in a cell) that allows the user to select which function to run:
If you already have an onEdit function working, that's a simple trigger run by whoever is editing the sheet. Meaning that if you protect column A, it won't be editable by that simple trigger because the user won't have permissions
In order to work this out, I encourage you to protect your column as explained here, change your name function or extract in a new function the part about this specific code you're talking about; and set an installable trigger that runs on event. This way it'll be run as you used to but as it came from your own account. As you have permissions for editing ColA the timestamp will be set by the installable trigger but the other user won't be able to edit it since he/she doesn't have the permissions. Try it and let me know!
I have this function that I use to loop thru a spreadsheet and send emails depending on the value of the status Column. I'm currently using a trigger that runs the sendEmailFunction on change in the spreadsheet.
However, I would prefer to write a programmatic trigger, that runs this sendEmailFunction when the cell value in the statusCol Range is changed from blank -> Initiate. I have tried using the onEdit(e) method, but can't seem to get it to work. Thanks
function sendEmailFunction() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var ws = ss.getSheets()[0];
var totalRows = ss.getLastRow() -1;
var statusCol = ss.getRange(2, 16, totalRows, 1).getValues();
for (var i=0; i<statusCol.length; i++)
{
if(statusCol[i] == 'Email Sent' || statusCol[i] == null)
{
continue;
}
else
{
var col1 = ws.getRange(i+2, 1).getValue();
var col2 = ws.getRange(i+2, 2).getValue();
var status = ws.getRange(i+2, 16).getValue();
}
}
if (status == 'Initiate'){
MailApp.sendEmail('emailaddress#live.com', 'subject', 'body')
}
}
I am trying to copy data from one sheet, paste it into another and then delete the row that have a "flag" attached to them (Column D). When I execute this code, it just deletes the flag and not the whole row. What is going on here? The functions seem to execute in the wrong order.
Tried using Utilities.sleep(), as well as
separating both into different functions
using a for loop writing out all the columns I want deleted
applying flush to the functions before executing the next
//copies the code
function myFunction() {
var url = 'https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ie2Fyj2piVV8XC0XUGX-fTAHcQ0UUUdec4Mtr1QdXtQ/edit#gid=293227072'
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl(url)
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Bad Emails Input')
var range = sheet.getRange("K:N")
var values = range.getValues()
var target = ss.getSheetByName("worklist")
target.getRange("A:D").setValues(values)
SpreadsheetApp.flush()
Utilities.sleep(5 * 1000)
}
//deletes the rows with flags in them
function myFunction2() {
var url = 'https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ie2Fyj2piVV8XC0XUGX-fTAHcQ0UUUdec4Mtr1QdXtQ/edit#gid=293227072'
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl(url)
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Bad Emails Input')
var range = sheet.getRange("K:N")
var values = range.getValues()
var target = ss.getSheetByName("worklist")
Utilities.sleep(6 * 1000)
var oldnews = target.getRange("D:D")
for (i = oldnews.length; i > 0; i--){
if (oldnews[i] !== undefined) {
target.getRange(i,1)
target.getRange(i,2)
target.getRange(i,3)
target.getRange(i,4)
}
}
SpreadsheetApp.flush()
}
It's not really clear what your asking. So I just guessed at some of this.
function myFunction() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById("id");
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Bad Emails Input')
var range = sheet.getRange(1,11,sheet.getLastRow(),4);
var values = range.getValues()
var target = ss.getSheetByName("worklist")
target.getRange(1,1,values.length,values[0].length).setValues(values);
SpreadsheetApp.flush();
var d=0;
for(var i=0;i<values.length;i++) {
if(values[i][3]) {
target.deleteRow(i+1-d++);
}
}
}
Try the below code:
function myFunction() {
var url = 'https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ie2Fyj2piVV8XC0XUGX-fTAHcQ0UUUdec4Mtr1QdXtQ/edit#gid=293227072'
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl(url);
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Bad Emails Input');
var range = sheet.getRange("K:N");
var values = range.getValues();
var target = ss.getSheetByName("worklist");
target.getRange("A:D").setValues(values);
SpreadsheetApp.flush();
//If you have a header row change the below to A2:D and count to 2
var data=ss.getSheetByName("worklist").getRange("A:D").getValues(),count=1;
for (i in data) {
var rowdata=data[i];
if (!rowdata[0] || rowdata[0]==''){break;}
if (rowdata[3] == 'flag') {//change the flag to however it is in column D
ss.getSheetByName("worklist").deleteRow(count);
count++;
}
}
}
I'm trying to.. 1) replace a substring from the contents of the active cell in my sheet, and.. 2) move the active cell down one spot, and repeat until the active cell value is empty. Here's my function, but nothing happens when I run it...can anyone see why?
var app = SpreadsheetApp;
var mySheet = ss.getSheetByName('NAME');
var activeCell = mySheet.getActiveCell();
var cellValue = activeCell.getValue();
var activeRow = activeCell.getRow();
function replaceStringInCell(){
while(cellValue != ''){
var newCellValue = cellValue.replace('MC/Visa/Discover', 'CC');
activeCell.setValue(newCellValue);
activeRow++;
mySheet.getRange(activeRow, 7).activate();
}
}
Issue:
Unnecessary looping over each cell
Solution:
Use batch operations
Sample Script:
function replaceColA() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var mySheet = ss.getSheetByName('NAME');
var cellRange = mySheet.getRange('A1:A' + mySheet.getLastRow());
var cellValues = cellRange.getValues().map(replaceStringInCell); //call replace function on all values in range
cellRange.setValues(cellValues); //set mapped values back to range
}
function replaceStringInCell(cellValue) {
if (cellValue.map) {
//if cellValue is a array
return cellValue.map(replaceStringInCell); //recurse
} else {
return cellValue.replace('MC/Visa/Discover', 'CC');
}
}

I have written a script to clean up and move data between 3 different sheets. A user first paste a data extract on to the "Extract" page, and then runs the script.
When a user paste the data into cell A1 on the "Extract" page, I would like a prompt box to ask the user if they would like to run the script; if Yes, run script, if No, don't run script and show message. How would I go about doing this?
This is what I have so far...everything after the first function works.

Your onEdit(e) will trigger the alert regardless of which cell is edited. You need to check the event range to limit it to cell A1 of Extract like this.
function onEdit(e) {
if( e.range.getSheet().getName() === "Extract" ) {
if( e.range.getA1Notation() === "A1" ) {
if( e.value !== "" ) {
var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
// Do the rest of your stuff here
}
}
}
}
