I have created a script in google scripts, to take a spreadsheet and fill out multiple google docs successfully. I am trying to apply this logic to filling out an HTML form, basically, we need user-generated info (in our google sheet) to fill out an HTML form on a web page.
QUESTION: How would I get the following function to not only open but write in the data?
This is where I am at (just using an example webpage):
function testNew(){
var js = " \
<script> \
window.open('https://colorlib.com/etc/cf/ContactFrom_v1/index.html', '_blank', 'width=800, height=600'); \
google.script.host.close(); \
</script> \
";
var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutput(js)
.setHeight(10)
.setWidth(100);
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModalDialog(html, 'Now loading.'); // If you use this on Spreadsheet
// DocumentApp.getUi().showModalDialog(html, 'Now loading.'); // If you use this on Document
// SlidesApp.getUi().showModalDialog(html, 'Now loading.'); // If you use this on Slides
}
This is an example of what I did with the google docs, trying to replicate informs:
function myFunction() {
var data = Sheets.Spreadsheets.Values.get('google sheet ID HERE', 'A2:R300');
// google doc template id, already got deal memo
var templateId = 'google doc ID HERE';
// loop through the values "i" is looping the rows, "#" is the column example: 0=a,1=b
for (var i = 0; i < data.values.length; i++) {
var date = data.values[i][0];
var email = data.values[i][1];
// grab the google doc template, create a copy, and generate the new id
var documentId = DriveApp.getFileById(templateId).makeCopy().getId();
// change the name of the new file
DriveApp.getFileById(documentId).setName(companyName+ '-' + projectName+ '-' + 'Insurance Report');
// get the document body as a variable
var body = DocumentApp.openById(documentId).getBody();
// replace values with google sheet data
body.replaceText('##Date##', date);
body.replaceText('##Email##', email);
Thank you for your help!
