Script to automatically send a Sheet by email - google-apps-script

Question

I am trying to automate by a script the sending of a Sheet (active or not) of a workbook and only one sheet and not the whole workbook to a list of email addresses. Furthermore, I would like the Sheet to be converted to excel format when it is attached to the email.
Thank you for your answers

Answer 1

Try this:
function emailSpreadsheetAsPDF() {
const sheetToPrint = 'SPREADSHEET_NAME'; // name of the sheet to print
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getSheetByName('SHEET_NAME'); // the sheets to use
const email = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName('SHEET_NAME').getRange('RANGE').getValue().toString(); // grab the email address from the specified cell
const subject = `SUBJECT - ${ss.getName()}`; // the subject of the email
const body = "BODY"; // body of the email
const shID = ss.getSheetByName(sheetToPrint).getSheetId(); // the ID of the sheet
const url = 'https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/SS_ID/export?'.replace('SS_ID', ss.getId()); // url of the spreadsheet
const exportOptions =
'exportFormat=pdf&format=xlsx' + // export as pdf / csv / xls / xlsx
'&gid='+shID; // the sheet's Id
var params = {method:"GET",headers:{"authorization":"Bearer "+ ScriptApp.getOAuthToken()}};
// generate the file
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url+exportOptions, params).getBlob();
// send the email to the specified address with the specified body text and attached file
GmailApp.sendEmail(email, subject, body, {
htmlBody: body,
attachments: [{
fileName: `EKOL Hungary - ${ss.getName()}` + ".xlsx",
content: response.getBytes(),
mimeType: "application/xlsx"
}]
});
}
Just substitute the SPREADSHEET_NAME, SHEET_NAME, RANGE, and BODY to what is true for your spreadsheet.
You can add a Trigger under the Triggers menu point (left side of the Script Editor) to automatically run the script whenever you want it to run.

Thanks but I failed to use it
But by combining several scripts, I found one that works:
function onSubmit(e){
Logger.log('submit ran');
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getActiveSheet();
//Send active sheet as email attachment
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var ssID = ss.getId();
var sheetgId = ss.getActiveSheet().getSheetId();
var sheetName = ss.getName();
var token = ScriptApp.getOAuthToken();
var email = "xxx#xx";
var subject = "xxxxx";
var body = "xxxxx";
var url = "https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/"+ssID+"/export?" + "format=xlsx" + "&gid="+sheetgId+ "&portrait=false" + "&exportFormat=xlsx";
var result = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, {
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token
}
});
var contents = result.getContent();
MailApp.sendEmail(email,subject ,body, {attachments:[{fileName:sheetName+".xlsx", content:contents, mimeType:"application//xlsx"}]});
};
Now what I would like is to be able to send the sheet to email addresses located on another sheet.
Also in "subject", I would like to combine "xxxx" + a date in a cell of the active sheet: "xxxx dd / mm / yyyy"
I haven't figured out how to do it yet !!!
