I have already a function called doGet(e). And also my developer can see the button when he log-in with his Gmail id. But I can not see the deploy button. Do you have any solution for this?
Or is there any way I can deploy the app script using a script or any CLI?
You are using the classic editor for Apps Script.
In this case, you have to go to Publish -> Deploy as Web App
You can also change to the new IDE by clicking on the blue button -> Use the new Editor
How do you close the GNU-Octave editor programmatically in Windows?
Either the whole editor or a specific .m file being edited.
I'm creating a simple vehicle monitoring system using Google Sheets. I have drawn a shape to be used as a button, and I've assigned a script to it.
Here's the script I'm trying to run:
function newlto() {
var form
=FormApp.openById('1kJLfksSYgOv6Q0UGjdnklg2E5J5R03mIUHoefIvuZ28');
}
The script is supposed to open my Google Form, however, the script runs no problem but it does not open the form, after the "Finished running script" notification at the top-center, nothing happens.
You are trying to open a Google Form from a script. Google Apps Script will not automatically open web pages, and a Google Form is a web page - so you can't write a script to open a form.
You may find it easier to create a simple hyperlink to the Google Form.
The steps to do this (assuming that you have access to the form editor):
Send Form
click "Send",
at the top of the screen where it says "Send via", click the middle icon for the link,
click the link ( or a variation here is to click the "Shorten URL" box to get, well, a shorter URL),
click "Copy" (to put a copy of the link into memory,
switch to your spreadsheet and paste the link into a cell.
This automatically creates a hyperlink.
To access the URL, hover you have to hover the hyperlink, and then click the popup box that appears.

You should read:
google spreadsheet - open external URL from button (created 2018),
Google Apps Script to open a URL (created 2012),
Google App Scripts Function to Open URL (created 2018).
I guess you want to open the form using a button, using something like window.open(); the problem is that Apps Script is server scripting and this method cannot be called from a server script but with a client script. If you try to use it it will prompts an error message indicating that window is not defined.
when you use FormApp.openById(); you are opening the form on the server to work on the Form by using the script, is like doing the same steps manually on the browser but with coding on the server. You can find more information on the Apps Script - Forms website.
A script "SCRIPT" is attached to a spreadsheet "SPREADSHEET".
Is it possible to create a link for the "trigger to SCRIPT", so that I can store the link somewhere such as in bookmarks, and run the script just by clicking on the link?
Whenever I refresh a spreadsheet (after having changed some of its Apps Scripts code) with CMD - R, Safari closes the script editor tab automatically.
How can I avoid that this tab is being closed?
Make an edit in the script, but don't save. Refresh the spreadsheet. The tab with the script will ask you if you want to close the tab, so say no. It won't close on you anymore after that.
Also, you can use Tools > Script Manager from the spreadsheet to run functions, or even run them directly from the script editor if you don't want to refresh.
