This is a sample script for replacing the multiple values with various values in Google Spreadsheet with the low process cost using Google Apps Script. In this script, the batchUpdate method of Sheets API is used. So the request can be done by one API call. When Spreadsheet services is used for this situation, the values are retrieved from the sheet and replaced the retrieved values, and then, the updated values are put to the sheet. Or the TextFinder is used in a loop. In this case, the process cost is higher than that using Sheets API. By using the bathUpdate method of Sheets API, the process cost is reduced.

Description

When Google Spreadsheet is used, there is the case that the built-in functions and the custom functions in the cells are used. For the functions of Google Apps Script, there is the method for measuring the process cost. Ref But for the built-in functions, it is required to create the script for it. In this report, the script for measuring a function put in a cell has been proposed, and the process cost of the built-in functions has been measured. The proposed script can measure the process cost for the built-in functions and custom functions on Google Spreadsheet. The script is created with using Google Apps Script.

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 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.

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.
