I currently have a google web app that checks to see if the a value (predefined from dropdown list so it will always been in the column") is in a column, if it is, it returns information about that value. however i am trying to update it so if the value is not found in the column(user entered value), it searches a second column to see if anyone has entered that value before. the issue i am having is once it finds the user entered value, it collects the value of the cells adjacent to it and flicks it back to the client side HTML javascript, the client side is seeing it as null. It's currently working fine for the first section which uses the predefined drop down choices. it's still finding the correct information, its just the client side for some reason cannot see it. I am abit of a novice when it comes to coding so any help anyone could provide would be GREATLY appreciated.
function sendFleet(e){ // This code sends the dropdown value to the server side
e.preventDefault();

Solved the issue. Instead of using .getValue, i used .getDisplayValue which will return the date as a string.

I found this answer posted here earlier.
function GoToPage() {
var form = FormApp.openById('MY FORM');
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById("MY SPREADSHEET");
var sheet = spreadsheet.getSheetByName("MY SHEET");
var list = form.getItemById("MY MULTIPLE CHOICE ID").asListItem()
var pagebreak01 = form.getItemById("PAGE BREAK ID 1").asPageBreakItem();
var pagebreak02 = form.getItemById("PAGE BREAK ID 2").asPageBreakItem();
var pagebreak03 = form.getItemById("PAGE BREAK ID 3").asPageBreakItem();
var choice1 = sheet.getRange("RANGE 1 FROM MY SHEET").getValues();
var choice2 = sheet.getRange("RANGE 2 FROM MY SHEET").getValues();
var choice3 = sheet.getRange("RANGE 3 FROM MY SHEET").getValues();
list.setChoices([
list.createChoice(choice1, pagebreak01),
list.createChoice(choice2, pagebreak02),
list.createChoice(choice3, pagebreak03)]);
}
when using a range larger than 1 in the choice# variables, this makes just one choice with all the items in the range separated by commas. how can I use this to make a list of choices that has a dynamic range?
My exact choices should be:
"** Add Location **" , goto newLocation section of form.
location 1, goto next section.
location 2, goto next section.
location 3, ect....
If you select new location and fill out the form to add a new location the script then adds that location name to the choices for the next time you fill out the form. so this list is continually growing larger.
function updateForm() {
var locationForm = form.getItemById("413015265").asListItem();
var equipmentForm = form.getItemById("2123556695").asListItem();
var newLocation = form.getItemById('231469190').asPageBreakItem();
var newItem = form.getItemById('90044295').asPageBreakItem();
var gotoIssue = form.getItemById('1493817332').asPageBreakItem();
var gotoLocation = form.getItemById('1425783734').asPageBreakItem();
var locations = tblLocations.getRange(2,2,tblLocations.getLastRow()-1,1).getValues();
var items = tblItems.getRange(2,2,tblItems.getLastRow()-1,1).getValues();
items = items.sort();
locations = locations.sort();
locationForm.setChoices([
locationForm.createChoice("** Add Location **",newLocation),
locationForm.createChoice(locations,gotoIssue)
]);
equipmentForm.setChoices([
equipmentForm.createChoice("** Add Item **",newItem),
equipmentForm.createChoice(items,gotoLocation)
]);
}
after running the above script I ended up with only 2 choices. 1 new location/item entry which works correctly, and 1 entry with all the current locations/items in the spreadsheet already, separated by commas. Can i just run a foreach loop inside the setChoices command?
function updateForm() {
var locationForm = form.getItemById("413015265").asListItem();
var equipmentForm = form.getItemById("2123556695").asListItem();
var newLocation = form.getItemById('231469190').asPageBreakItem();
var newItem = form.getItemById('90044295').asPageBreakItem();
var gotoIssue = form.getItemById('1493817332').asPageBreakItem();
var gotoLocation = form.getItemById('1425783734').asPageBreakItem();
var locations = tblLocations.getRange(2,2,tblLocations.getLastRow()-1,1).getValues();
var items = tblItems.getRange(2,2,tblItems.getLastRow()-1,1).getValues();
var locationChoices = [];
var itemChoices = [];
locationChoices[0] = locationForm.createChoice("** Add Location **",newLocation);
itemChoices[0] = equipmentForm.createChoice("** Add Item **",newItem);
items = items.sort();
locations = locations.sort();
for (var i=0;i<tblLocations.getLastRow()-1;i++){
locationChoices[i+1]= locationForm.createChoice(locations[i],gotoIssue);
}
locationForm.setChoices(locationChoices);
for (var i=0;i<tblItems.getLastRow()-1;i++){
itemChoices[i+1]= equipmentForm.createChoice(items[i],gotoLocation);
}
equipmentForm.setChoices(itemChoices);
}
I was able to figure it out. It's probably not the most beautiful solution but it works. :)
The code below pulls data from the Mailchimp API Reports endpoint and adding it to Sheets.
I would like to add some more data from other endpoints (like fields from the "List/Audience" endpoint: member_count, total_contacts i.e.) but don't have a slick solution to this.
What's the best practice/solution here? Can this task be kept in the same function or is a separate function preferable?
I'm new in this area so bear with me :)

You can call each endpoint in succession using the error-first pattern. More on this here.
If your previous call returns data and doesn't error out, you pass the next function as a callback, etc.
In the example below, I've omitted the logic that builds URL endpoint, query-string, and the 'options' object as these can simply be borrowed from your code.
Basically, you define a function with a callback parameter for each API endpoint.
Whenever you need to call multiple endpoints, you create a 3rd function that calls them in succession, passing each new function call as a parameter to the previous one.
The inner functions will still have access to the outer scope so you can combine data from multiple endpoints after the last call is executed (provided you assign unique names to the returned data - 'campaigns', 'reports', etc)
//function for the 'campaings' endpoint
function getCampaings(options, callback) {
//API call
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(campaignsEndpoint, options);
if (res.getStatusCode() == 200) {
var campaigns = JSON.parse(res.getContentText());
callback(false, campaigns);
} else {
callback("Error: Server responded with the status code of " + res.getStatusCode());
}
}
After creating the function for calling the 'reports' endpoint using the same approach, combine calls in the 3rd function.
function getCampaignsAndReports(){
var combinedData = {};
getCampaigns(options, function(err, campaigns){
if (!err && campaigns) {
//Call is successful - proceed to the next call
getReports(options, function(err, reports){
//Call successful
if (!err && reports) {
//Proceed to the next call or combine data from
//multiple endpoints
combinedData.campaigns = campaigns.campaigns;
combinedData.reports = reports.reports;
//write to sheet
//...
} else {
//Error calling reports endpoint
throw err;
}
});
} else {
//Error calling 'campaigns' endpoint. Throw error or write
//another function to show it to the user
throw err;
}
});
}
This may vary depending on how the MailChimp API data is structured so please change the code accordingly. Also, if you need to call the 'reports' endpoint multiple times for each entry in the 'campaings' endpoint, you can change your function to handle multiple request (options) object using UrlFetchApp.fetchAll(request[]). More on this here. Calling this method will return multiple response objects that you can iterate over.
I have struggling to present available data for selected customer from spreadsheet into app maker form incase staff want to change it or update empty fields.
Client side code:
function getDetails() {
var props = app.currentPage.properties;
var page = app.pages.Search;
var Channel = app.datasources.Update.items;
var Customer = page.descendants.Sheets.value;
props.Loading = true;
props.Error = null;
google.script.run
.withFailureHandler(function(error) {
props.Loading = false;
props.Error = JSON.stringify(error);
console.error(error);
})
.withSuccessHandler(function(Channel) {
props.Loading = false;
page.Channel = Channel;
var items = [];
items = getChannels(props.SelectedSheet);
Channel.items.load(); // this line dosen't work and it doesn't load the data into form
if (Channel && Channel.length > 0) {
page.SelectedSheet = Channel[0];
} })
.getDetails(props.SelectedSheet);
}
Server side code:
function getDetails()(customer){
var spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById("***").getSheetByName('TRACKER');
var data=spreadSheet.getDataRange().getValues();
var channels = [];
var Name = customer;
var string1 = Name;
var array1 = string1.split(";"); // in here I extract row number belong to customer to get data
var destrow = [];
destrow.push(data[array1[0]][0],data[array1[0]][1],data[array1[0]][2],data[array1[0]][3],data[array1[0]][4],data[array1[0]][5]);
channels.push(destrow);
// return channels;
return channels.map(function(Channel){
return Channel;}); // return array of field data to presented in app maker form
}
Thank you for any answer or suggestion.
Cheers
In theory, this code should throw exception, since Channel is array and array doesn't have load method:
function getDetails() {
...
var Channel = app.datasources.Update.items;
...
// your first Channel variable is never used and is overridden with
// Channel callback parameter
.withSuccessHandler(function(Channel) {
// this line does nothing, since all App Maker objects are sealed
page.Channel = Channel;
// TypeError: load is not a function
Channel.items.load();
...
}
It is not clear from you code, what you are trying to do... Try to debug it and look into browser console more often (F12 or Ctrl + Shift + J).

I have a script that is designed to create about 120 forms and link them to a single spreadsheet where I will analyze the data. I don't have any issues with the script until my spreadsheet has about a dozen forms linked to it. Then I get an error saying the destination ID is invalid, after logging the id, and entering it manually into a url I see no issues with the ID....
var ssSummaryId = '******redacted*******';
var form = FormApp.create('RM#' + rmNumber).setDestination(FormApp.DestinationType.SPREADSHEET, ssSummaryId);
form.setDescription(valuesSummary[ii][2])
.setConfirmationMessage('Thanks for the update on room ' + rmNumber)
.setShowLinkToRespondAgain(false);
// form.setDestination(FormApp.DestinationType.SPREADSHEET, ssSummaryId);
var formId = form.getId();
var formUrl = form.getPublishedUrl();
EDIT I'm adding my complete script and some additional info, just in case someone wants to check my code out and point out all it rookie mistakes.
I'm using Google scripts to build a spreadsheet and then create 120 slightly altered Google forms that are linked to a single spreadsheet, all the responses are by design on separate sheets named "form responses n". I consistently hit a wall once I exceed 10 forms linked to one sheet. Note; in initial testing I remember having a spreadsheet with 46 forms (and therefore sheets) linked to it. As you can see in the code below, I have the app restart from where it's left off after every 5 forms are created, so I'm not getting any 'extended runtime errors". Just the error below, typically after the script runs twice from Google Scripts IDE.
I'm just finally getting the hand of basic javascript after years of using and modifying js in web developing. So I apologize in advanced for the poor code.

As an alternative, you could create the forms, and intentionally not link them to a spreadsheet, then have some code that looped through every form, and extracted the data. You'd probably want to put the forms into their own folder.
Or, you'd need to build a form with Apps Script HTML Service, embed it into a Apps Script Gadget in a Google Site, and have everyone fill out the form from Sites.
I had this script working, but a few weeks ago it suddenly stopped - I assumed I made some programming error but I've been unable to debug this for weeks.
I want a script on google sites that allows someone to upload a file (and some other information, like its name) and have the script attach it to a new file cabinet page and then update a list page with the new page's information.
I used parts of code from an old forum post, updating where I needed to. I am not opposed to rewriting if someone knows of a simpler way to do this.
Thanks!
