Events are not getting added in calendar - google-apps-script

I have the name for event and end date (without start date) in Google Sheets.
Column B is the name of the event and column C is end date.
The script says execution successful but events are not getting added in Google Calendar.
I am the owner and have full rights/permission.
Here's the script:
function onOpen() {
var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
var menu = ui.createMenu('Sync to Calendar');
var item = menu.addItem('Commit', 'syncCalendar');
item.addToUi();
}
function calendar() {
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var eventCal = CalendarApp.getCalendarById("calendarid**");
var name = spreadsheet.getRange('B3:B250').getValue();
var start = new Date(spreadsheet.getRange('C3:C250').getValue()).getTime();
var end = new Date(spreadsheet.getRange('C3:C250').getValue()).getTime();
eventCal.createEvent(name,new Date(start),new Date(end));
Logger.log('Reminder is added to your calendar');
}

You have to make a loop as follows
const cal = '#################gmail.com'
function calendar() {
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var eventCal = CalendarApp.getCalendarById(cal);
var lastRow = spreadsheet.getLastRow()
var name = spreadsheet.getRange('B3:B' + lastRow).getValues().flat();
var start = spreadsheet.getRange('C3:C' + lastRow).getValues().flat();
var end = spreadsheet.getRange('C3:C' + lastRow).getValues().flat();
name.forEach((n, i) => {
try {
var id = eventCal.createEvent(n, new Date(start[i].getTime()), new Date(end[i].getTime())).getId();
console.log(id)
} catch (e) {
console.log(i + ' ' + e)
}
})
Logger.log('Reminder is added to your calendar');
}
flat()
forEach()

With the help of #Mike Steelson this script is working.
However, when you run the code again, it creates duplicates in the calendar.
Is there any way to avoid this?
const cal = 'yourcalendarid#group.calendar.google.com'
function calendar() {
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var eventCal = CalendarApp.getCalendarById(cal);
var lastRow = spreadsheet.getLastRow()
var name = spreadsheet.getRange('B3:B' + lastRow).getValues().flat();
var start = spreadsheet.getRange('C3:C' + lastRow).getValues().flat();
var end = spreadsheet.getRange('C3:C' + lastRow).getValues().flat();
name.forEach((n, i) => {
try {
var id = eventCal.createEvent(n, new Date(start[i].getTime()), new Date(end[i].getTime())).getId();
console.log(id)
} catch (e) {
console.log(i + ' ' + e)
}
})
Logger.log('Reminder is added to your calendar');
}

RefreshImport function not working in Google Sheets

I tried to fill it with my sheet data, but that
var dataRange = sheet.getDataRange();
get an error. What should I do?
function RefreshImports() {
var lock = LockService.getScriptLock();
if (!lock.tryLock(5000)) return; // Wait up to 5s for previous refresh to end.
var id = "1r7TgCWXfjmcjufT0yz9qcFDlr482SdHDHlZYblXyAt0"; // [YOUR SPREADSHEET ID]
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(id);
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("crypto"); // sheet name
var dataRange = sheet.getDataRange();
var formulas = dataRange.getFormulas();
var content = "";
var now = new Date();
var time = now.getTime();
var re = /.*[^a-z0-9]import(?:xml|data|feed|html|range)\(.*/gi;
var re2 = /((\?|&)(update=[0-9]*))/gi;
var re3 = /(",)/gi;
for (var row=0; row<formulas.length; row++) {
for (var col=0; col<formulas[0].length; col++) {
content = formulas[row][col];
if (content != "") {
var match = content.search(re);
if (match !== -1 ) {
// import function is used in this cell
var updatedContent = content.toString().replace(re2,"$2update=" + time);
if (updatedContent == content) {
// No querystring exists yet in url
updatedContent = content.toString().replace(re3,"?update=" + time + "$1");
}
// Update url in formula with querystring param
sheet.getRange(row+1, col+1).setFormula(updatedContent);
}
}
}
}
// Done refresh; release the lock.
lock.releaseLock();
// Show last updated time on sheet somewhere
sheet.getRange(7,2).setValue("Rates were last updated at " + now.toLocaleTimeString())
}
I set up the trigger.
Not sure what you trying to do and you explanation leaves a lot to be desired.
So this is a simple way to put your formulas into a sheet named "Destination".
function RefreshImports() {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
const sh = ss.getSheetByName("crypto");
const rg = sh.getDataRange();
const formulas = rg.getFormulas();
sh.getRange(1,1,formulas.length,formulas[0].length).setFormulas(formulas);
}

Google Sheets function runs but does not affect sheet content

I'm working on a Google Sheets script to perform the following:
iterate through a specified sheet, finding rows that do not contain a specified value within a specified column
store these rows as a range in a variable
remove all other rows
replace the sheet content with the stored rows
The script runs without error, but does not affect sheet content. I'm not sure what the issue is - any feedback is appreciated.
Here's the script:
function onOpen() {
const ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
ui.createMenu('Clear OI')
.addItem('Clear OI', 'removeZeroOI')
.addToUi();
}
function removeZeroOI() {
// Deleting Rows Based on Cell Values
//GLOBALS
var SS = SpreadsheetApp.openById("mySheetID");
var SHEET = SS.getSheetByName("mySheetName");
var RANGE = SHEET.getDataRange();
var DELETE_VAL = 0;
var COL_TO_SEARCH = 13; //column N
function main() {
var startTime = new Date().getTime();
var deleteSelectedRows = removeFilterSetVals();
var runTime = (new Date().getTime() - startTime)/1000;
Logger.log("Runtime is: "+runTime + " seconds");
};
function removeFilterSetVals(){
var rangeVals = RANGE.getValues();
var filteredRange = rangeVals.filter(function(val){
return val[COL_TO_SEARCH] != DELETE_VAL ;
});
RANGE.clearContent();
var newRange = SHEET.getRange(1,1,filteredRange.length, filteredRange[0].length);
newRange.setValues(filteredRange);
};
}
If you are actually using your showing script, I think that in your script, when the function of removeZeroOI() is run, main() and removeFilterSetVals() are not run. By this, the script doesn't work while no error occurs.
When you want to run main() and removeFilterSetVals(), how about the following modifications?
Modified script:
function removeZeroOI() {
var SS = SpreadsheetApp.openById("mySheetID");
var SHEET = SS.getSheetByName("mySheetName");
var RANGE = SHEET.getDataRange();
var DELETE_VAL = 0;
var COL_TO_SEARCH = 13; //column N
main(); // Added
function main() {
var startTime = new Date().getTime();
var deleteSelectedRows = removeFilterSetVals();
var runTime = (new Date().getTime() - startTime) / 1000;
Logger.log("Runtime is: " + runTime + " seconds");
};
function removeFilterSetVals() {
var rangeVals = RANGE.getValues();
var filteredRange = rangeVals.filter(function(val) {
return val[COL_TO_SEARCH] != DELETE_VAL;
});
RANGE.clearContent();
var newRange = SHEET.getRange(1, 1, filteredRange.length, filteredRange[0]
.length);
newRange.setValues(filteredRange);
};
}
And,
function removeZeroOI() {
var SS = SpreadsheetApp.openById("mySheetID");
var SHEET = SS.getSheetByName("mySheetName");
var RANGE = SHEET.getDataRange();
var DELETE_VAL = 0;
var COL_TO_SEARCH = 13; //column N
var startTime = new Date().getTime();
// Script of "removeFilterSetVals()" is put here.
var rangeVals = RANGE.getValues();
var filteredRange = rangeVals.filter(function(val) {
return val[COL_TO_SEARCH] != DELETE_VAL;
});
RANGE.clearContent();
var newRange = SHEET.getRange(1, 1, filteredRange.length, filteredRange[0]
.length);
newRange.setValues(filteredRange);
var runTime = (new Date().getTime() - startTime) / 1000;
Logger.log("Runtime is: " + runTime + " seconds");
}

Email not sending or probably not being triggered on form submit Google Apps Scripts

Well we have this google form and the details are being added to google sheet with custom g apps scripts. When the details have been appended to the google sheet log, it should send email. If I run the sendmail() manually, it works but when I call it inside onFormSubmit(), it's not working. What could have gone wrong?
function onFormSubmit(e) {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();

UPDATE: I have pasted the whole code instead above so you guys can see
You have to register onFormSubmit as the function that handles the form submit trigger. Have you registered the function "onFormSubmit" like this:
ScriptApp.newTrigger('onFormSubmit').forForm(form).onFormSubmit().create();
You might also want to check the registered triggers by clicking on Edit > Current project's trigger from your Apps Script project.
[Edit] Since the trigger is created properly, change the first the line of the trigger code from:
function onFormSubmit(e) {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
to this:
function onFormSubmit(e) {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(e.source.getDestinationId());

Google script custom trigger onEdit(e) issue

I am getting error in line 29. But the same code works when pasted in another sheet. Separate trigger is used. Edit-> Current project's trigger.
var Team_email='abc#gmail.com';

}

{
var range = e.range;
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().alert("range updated " + range.getA1Notation());
}
function checkStatusIsAssigned(e)
{
Logger.log("stg3");
var range = e.range;

var subject = "Request_Number - " + Request_Number;
return({message:message,subject:subject, email:email });
}
Please tell me the error where is the mistake.
We can not use debug function to understand the mistake. because trigger is on edit.
Also when we use 'e' what are the information do we feed the function?
How to correct this?

How to optimize fileiterator (to avoid timeout) in Google Scripts

I am hitting the Google Scripts 6-minute timeout. The script is running through quite a few folders and subfolders. I am hoping that there is either (or both):
A way to optimize the script to more efficiently/intelligently run through the dataset/iterators?
A way to use a getContinuationToken()
Any help would be much appreciated!
I have tried to limit the number of folders/subfolders the script runs through. Even on a 'minimal' run, it times out. And FYI, my goal is to:
make a copy of files that are NOT owned by 'me'...
change the name of the original file (that was not owned by me) to be 'delete'
Here is the code:
FOLDERS = ["0B4FiuEqe8ftGb2lSbjJzakJDNWs"]; /*, "0B4FiuEqe8ftGN2YxZFU5RlhMSDQ", "0B4FiuEqe8ftGN2YxZFU5RlhMSDQ", "1D_1u_KwcLOsBuKyQ7NCsKDd8DB5JwOn6"];*/
function copyNonOwnedFiles() {
var arr = FOLDERS
for (var j = 0; j < arr.length; j++) {
var folderTOP = DriveApp.getFolderById(arr[j]);
var folders = folderTOP.getFolders();
var me = Session.getActiveUser().getEmail();
//RUN #1 = this runs through all of the subfolders
//iterator 1
while (folders.hasNext()) {
var folder = folders.next();
//get all files within these folders
var files = folder.getFiles();
//iterator 2
while (files.hasNext()) {
var file = files.next();
var Owner = file.getOwner().getEmail();
if( Owner !== me ){
var name = file.getName();
file.makeCopy(name);
file.setName('delete');
}
}
}
//RUN #2 = this runs through the parent folder
var files2 = folderTOP.getFiles();
//iterator 2
while (files2.hasNext()) {
var file2 = files2.next();
var Owner = file2.getOwner().getEmail();
if( Owner !== me ){
var name2 = file2.getName();
file2.makeCopy(name2);
file2.setName('delete');
}
}
}
}
Try this:
This script will find the files owned by the active user, in the folders with the listed ids and display them on a modeless dialog. This script will probably need to utilize lock service for multiple simultaneous users.
var myFiles=[];
var ids=["0B4FiuEqe8ftGb2lSbjJzakJDNWs", "0B4FiuEqe8ftGN2YxZFU5RlhMSDQ", "0B4FiuEqe8ftGN2YxZFU5RlhMSDQ", "1D_1u_KwcLOsBuKyQ7NCsKDd8DB5JwOn6"];
var me='';
function getMyFiles() {
myFiles=[];
me=Session.getActiveUser().getEmail();
for(var i=0;i<ids.length;i++) {
getFnF(DriveApp.getFolderById(ids[i]));
}
var html="<style>th,td{border:1px solid black;}</style><table><tr><th>Item</th><th>Name</th><th>Url</th></tr>";
for(var i=0;i<myFiles.length;i++) {
html+=Utilities.formatString('<tr><td>%s</td><td>%s</td><td>Link</td></tr>',i+1,myFiles[i].name,myFiles[i].url);
}
html+='</table><input type="button" value="Close" onClick="google.script.host.close();" />';
var userInterface=HtmlService.createHtmlOutput(html);
var title=Utilities.formatString('Files Owned by: %s',me);
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModelessDialog(userInterface, title)
}
function getFnF(folder) {
var folder= folder || DriveApp.getRootFolder();
var files=folder.getFiles();
while(files.hasNext()) {
var file=files.next();
if(file.getOwner().getEmail()==me) {
myFiles.push({name:file.getName(),url:file.getUrl()});
}
}
var subfolders=folder.getFolders()
while(subfolders.hasNext()) {
var subfolder=subfolders.next();
getFnF(subfolder);
}
}
