Google App Maker allows me to drag and drop the "Tabs Layout" widget on a page and add the required tabs from the "Tab Properties" section using the "NEW TAB" button, but this makes it a static way to do things.
My requirement here is that I want to add new tabs to the tab layout dynamically using either an array of tab names or from the Data-source.
Somebody please suggest a way to achieve this in Google App Maker.

I've got a Google Sheet that contains numerous hyperlinks.
I'd like to prevent the user from opening multiple instances of the same site.
ie. user clicks the hyperlink in one cell which opens the linked site in a new tab, then attempts to click the same hyperlink while the first new tab is still open - I'd like a dialogue box to appear saying that they cannot open this second new tab until they have closed the first one.
Is this possible via Google App Script?
Many thanks!
Unfortunately not. GAS has no access to your browser data and cannot know what tabs are open.Moreover, GAS has no way of intercepting hyperlink clicks from within a spreadsheet, it can only do that in a side bar, modal (or modeless) dialog, a custom or an add-on menu or an image with a script attached to it.
In a google document, is there a way to make a piece of text (or a hyperlink or a button inside the text) calling a google app script?
The options are to create a custom menu or a sidebar panel. For further details see:

I don't know if this possible,
I wanted to add a button with custom action using email address to the hover widget that comes up.
I'm assuming google app script should be the right way to go. But don't know what to search in the reference guide.
Gmail add-ons can't modify the Gmail UI, they only could create Cards which are shown on side panel.

When I create a new App in Box with a file action, it automatically gets added to my box account and I have access to the file actions when I right-click on a file. I need another developer to have access to the same file action so we can develop and test it before we ask to put it live.
In the "Edit a Box Application" page I can add developers so that they can edit the application. I type their name into the box and save it, then they are able to get into the same screen and edit the details of the application. The problem is that when they right click on a file the file action is not presented as an option. When we look at the list of apps on their Box account our app in development is not there, which explains why they cannot see the file action.
How do we add our application to their account so that they can see the file action without having to set the application as publicly available?
They have to install the application onto their Box account. Have them go to https://cloud.app.box.com/services/ and they should be able to click the "+ Add" button to add the app to their Box account. That will let them have the UI components show up in their Box account.
Go to https:developers.box.com --> Click "My Box Apps" --> click "name of your app" --> copy the url from the browser--> tell your buddy to navigate to that URL.
I am developing a website which has custom Google search bar embedded into it. My client wants a functionality that when a user searches something into that search box, a new page should open where he should be shown the result of his search. The current Google search bar displays the result just below it. Is there any way I can change to display the results in a new tab? Please help out. Thanks
I would recommend using the new Google Custom Search Widget. It provides a simple parameter to open the searched item in a new window. The method you are using is deprecated.
<gcse:searchbox-only resultsUrl="http://www.example.com" newWindow="true" queryParameterName="search">
