Introduction

Here, I would like to report the process costs for retrieving the values from the arrays for Spreadsheet using Google Apps Script (GAS). When Spreadsheet is used with Google Apps Script, we have the following situations.

1. Retrieve values from the multiple rows in a column.

2. Retrieve values from the multiple columns in a row.

When the values are retrieved from above situations, it is required to retrieve the values from 1 dimensional array in the 2 dimensional array. In this report, the process costs for retrieving the values from the 2 dimensional array of above situations have been measured.

This is a sample script of the request of multipart/form-data with a simple request body using Google Apps Script. I hope that the users will easy to use Class UrlFetchApp by this report.

This report is the updated post of “Multipart-POST Request Using Google Apps Script”.

Description

I had already reported about this at this report. In that case, it was required to create a bit complicated request body to request multipart/form-data. Today, by a comment, I could notice the sample script of Class UrlFetchApp in the official document had been updated. By this, I thought that multipart/form-data will be requested with a simple request body. In this report, I would like to introduce a sample script for requesting multipart/form-data with a simple request body. But I’m not sure whether this request got to be able to be done by the internal update of Class UrlFetchApp.

This is a sample script for sorting the cells on Google Spreadsheet with the background colors using Google Apps Script.

Unfortunately, in the current stage, it seems that sort(sortSpecObj) of Class Range cannot directly sort by the background colors of cells. But when Sheets API is used, this goal can be achieved. Here, “SortRangeRequest” of the method of “spreadsheets.batchUpdate” in Sheets API is used.
