This code will insert the correct dates in the correct cells, but seems like after each loop (before moving to the next row) the date changes to undefined. This only happens for var = expDelivery all other dates are fine.
I am not sure why it inserts the date, correctly, then changes to undefined.
function doPost(e){
//append the ID to your spreadsheet like this:
var sheetID = e.parameter.sheetid;
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(sheetID);
var sh = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var headers = sh.getRange(1,1,1,sh.getLastColumn()).getValues()[0];
var uninstalledCol = headers.indexOf("uninstalledDate");
//get all variables passed from app
var ft = e.parameter.ftNumber;
var measuredDate = new Date(e.parameter.measuredDate);
var installedDate = new Date(e.parameter.installedDate);
var uninstalledDate = new Date(e.parameter.uninstalledDate);
//add 21 days to measuredDate
var dayInMs = 24*60*60*1000; //one day in Milliseconds
var daysToAdd = 21;
var expDelivery = new Date(measuredDate.getTime()+(daysToAdd*dayInMs));
var shtData = sh.getDataRange();
var shtVals = shtData.getValues();
var updatedCols = [];
for(var j = 1; j < shtVals.length; j++) //Loop through rows
{
for (var i = 6; i < uninstalledCol; i++) //Loop through columns
{
// IF col 1 of current row = ft AND current cell is blank AND current col title = measuredDate AND value passed with same name as col title IS NOT blank
if(shtVals[j][0] == ft && shtVals[j][i] == "" && headers[i] == "measuredDate" && e.parameter[headers[i]] != "")
{
shtVals[j][i] = e.parameter[headers[i]];
shtVals[j][i+1] = expDelivery; //Will set the correct date in spreadsheet but changes to "undefined" before moving to next row
shtData.setValues(shtVals);
updatedCols.push([headers[i]]);
}
// IF col 1 of current row = ft AND current cell is blank AND current col title IS NOT "DELIVERED DATE" or "measuredDate" AND value passed with same name as col title IS NOT blank
else if(shtVals[j][0] == ft && shtVals[j][i] == "" && headers[i] != "DELIVERED DATE" && headers[i] != "measuredDate" && e.parameter[headers[i]] != "")
{
shtVals[j][i] = e.parameter[headers[i]];
shtData.setValue(shtVals);
updatedCols.push([headers[i]]);
}
}
}
return message(updatedCols);
}
function message(msg) {
return ContentService.createTextOutput(JSON.stringify({Result: msg })).setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);
}
Your code is so inefficient. You're reading sheet values onece here var shtVals = sh.getDataRange().getValues();. Then for each row, for each col, you're reading and writing sheet values again and again.
for(var j = 1; j < shtVals.length; j++) //Loop through rows
{
for (var i = 6; i < uninstalledCol; i++) //Loop through columns
{
{
// do stuff
}
{
// do stuff
}
}
}
shtData.setValues(data);
Reading and writing takes time, that's why you should minimize them as possible. Best way is to read once, do all operation on the values then write once.
There can always be special cases and maybe you don't need speed.
About the issue -
It's writing here data[j][i+1] = expDelivery;. This is inside the inner loop which is running a few times, as suggested by the code. The code seems modifying col by col of a row, so it is unlikely for a row to mess with previous row. This is probably inner loop issue where cols are getting read, manipulated and written.
The loop code is not easy to understand, so, fixing bug is harder. You might wanna simplify it first if you haven't fixed the issue already.
I need the values to go to specific cells, is it possible to do this with a single write function?
Yes.
Lets say this is your sheet -
-----------------------------
| A | B |
-----------------------------
1 | Name | Age |
-----------------------------
2 | Alice | 25 |
-----------------------------
3 | Bob | 30 |
-----------------------------
We do var values = sheet.getDataRange().getValues(). We get -
values = [ [ Name, Age ],
[ Alice, 25 ],
[ Bob, 30 ] ]
Let's say you want to change A2 into Jane. Which indices do you use to access it inside values array ?
You can see from sheet, its 2nd row, 1st col. But values is a 2-dimensional array, the indices will be
values[1][0] because indices in arrays start with 0.
So, the actual indices to access A2 inside values will be values[1][0], row and col each 1 less than sheet row, col indices.
Lets change A2 to Jane. values[1][0] = 'Jane'
Once you change values array, this change is live, in memory, ready to be accessed in other operation or calculation. But, it is not written to sheet yet.
Lets say you need to change B2 as Jane is 26. So, do you make that change now ? Or, write previous change into sheet first ? It is preferred to make that change now and write both changes in one operation.
Now, what is the indices in values for B2?. B2 is 2nd row, 2nd col in sheet. In values array it is values[1][1].
Lets change B2 to 26. values[1][1] = 26. Now both changes are live. If we write values into sheet, both changes will be saved.
The part that is giving me trouble when it comes to this, is specifying the range to set values, how do I pass the [j] and [I] values of each entry.
Now you know how sheet indices and values indices work. Use values indices to change/set values on it then write values into sheet.

I am new to google apps script and I was trying to get all the values in a particular column inside a sheet named "Items". I was able to create a loop to get to the last row that contains value but when I try to use the function, no data is retrieved. I tried console.log(values[lr][0]); inside the if clause and it outputs just fine.
Here's my code
function getAllItems()
{
var ss= SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var locationSheet = ss.getSheetByName("Items");
var values = locationSheet.getRange("Items!B2:B").getValues();
for(var i = values.length - 1 ; i >= 0 ; i--){
if (values[i][0] != null && values[i][0] != ""){
lr = i + 1;
values.sort();
return values[lr][0];
}
}
}
There are several ways to retrieve values from a column in Google Sheets.
The basics, getting the sheet
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = spreadsheet.getSheetByName('Items');
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet() works in bounded projects and add-ons. Spreadsheet.getSheetByName(name) works when the sheet name is known.
Getting the column values by using Sheet.getRange and an open reference using A1 notation
var values = sheet.getRange('B:B').getValues();
If your spreadsheet has blank rows at the bottom, in this case Range.getValues besides the column values, it will return an empty string for each blank rows.
Besides using Sheet.getRange with an open reference, it might be used with other reference types and using start row, start column, number of rows and number of columns.
Getting the column values by using Sheet.getRange and an open reference using A1 notation excluding empty strings
var values = sheet.getRange('B:B').getValues().filter(String);
Getting the column values by using Sheet.getDataRange and Array.prototype.map
var values = sheet.getDataRange().getValues().map(row => row[1]);
Only will return the values from the first row to the last row of the data range. The data range is determined from A1 to the last row and last column having values, i.e., if one column B have values from row 1 to row 10 and column C have values from row 4 to row 20, the data range reference is A1:C20, so values will contain the values from row 1 to row 20, showing empty strings for the blank cells.
Getting the column values by using Sheet.getDataRange, Array.prototype.splice and Array.prototype.getLastIndex
var values = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
values.splice(values.findLastIndex(String) + 1);
Only will return the values from the first row to the last row of the column containing non empty strings. This might be helpful when having columns "of different sizes", as explained in the previous case. Please note that if there blank cells in between, an empty string will be included as value of these cells.
Notes:
Instead of Range.getValues you might use Range.getDisplayValues to get the strings with the values formatted as strings as they are displayed on Google Sheets cells. Both methods return the values structured as an Array of Arrays, this might be handy if you will be adding the values to another range, but if you want to add them to the execution logs you might want to format them in another way.
Please bear in mind that if the column content is very large, nowadays a Google Sheets spreadsheet could have up to 10 million cells and each cell could have upto 50k characters, the column content will be truncated when printed to the execution logs.

Get column from a two dimensional array
Resources
Array
You don't need a loop for that (explanation in comments):
function getAllItems()
{
var ss= SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var locationSheet = ss.getSheetByName("Items");
var values = locationSheet.getRange("Items!B2:B").getValues().flat(); // 2D -> 1D array
var filter_values = values.filter(r=>r!=''); // remove empty rows
Logger.log(filter_values); // get the full list
Logger.log(filter_values[filter_values.length-1]); // get the last value;
return filter_values[filter_values.length-1];
}
Try this:
function getAllItems(){
var ss= SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sh = ss.getSheetByName("Items");
var vs = sh.getRange("B2:B"+sh.getLastRow()).getValues();//all the values in column B
return sh.getLastRow();//the last row with data
}
Or you can use:
function getColumnHeight(col, sh, ss) {
var ss = ss || SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sh = sh || ss.getActiveSheet();
var col = col || sh.getActiveCell().getColumn();
var rcA = [];
if (sh.getLastRow()){ rcA = sh.getRange(1, col, sh.getLastRow(), 1).getValues().flat().reverse(); }
let s = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < rcA.length; i++) {
if (rcA[i].toString().length == 0) {
s++;
} else {
break;
}
}
return rcA.length - s;
//const h = Utilities.formatString('col: %s len: %s', col, rcA.length - s);
//Logger.log(h);
//SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModelessDialog(HtmlService.createHtmlOutput(h).setWidth(150).setHeight(100), 'Col Length')
}
function getAllItems(){
var ss= SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sh = ss.getSheetByName("Items");
var vs = sh.getRange("B2:B"+getColumnHeight(2,sh,ss).getValues();//all the values in column B
return sh.getLastRow();//the last row with data
}
If you use filter() to filter out all of the nulls you may not get the desired result if one of the data elements is null.
I have two sheets, one is a mirror sheet, "Sheet2," that I use to store the values of the other sheet, "Sheet1." My goal is to have a function compare the two sheets for differences. The best way i could think of was by comparing column A from Sheet1 to column A from Sheet2. I found a few functions that compared 2 columns but it did it looking for values from one column and finding it in the other column. Or by returning all the values in those cells that had a matching value, regardless of what row it was in. But I don't want the values in the cells, necessarily. I want to find the first row where the two columns stop matching. I'm fairly new to Javascript so I still can't comprehend the whole for (var j = 0; j < range.length; j++) stuff.
But I'm sure I will need to know how to use it for this function I need. Here's what I tried using but instead of giving me row ranges, it gave me an array of values that were the same, if I changed it to if(lookup[i][0]!==range[j][0]){ it gave me all the possible combinations that weren't matching. This is from stackoverflow.com/questions/42044903
function findDifference() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var s=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1")
var lr=s.getLastRow()
var lookup = s.getRange(2,1,lr-1,2).getValues();
var s1=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet2")
var lr1=s1.getLastRow()
var range = s1.getRange(2,1,lr1-1,2).getValues();
var lookupRange = [];
for (var i = 0; i < lookup.length; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < range.length; j++) {
var test=lookup[i][0]
if(lookup[i][0]!==range[j][0]){
lookupRange.push([range[j][0],range[j][1],lookup[i][0],lookup[i][1],]);
}}}
s1.getRange(10,1,lookupRange.length,4).setValues(lookupRange);
}
I feel like there's a very similar function for what I'm trying to do that already exists, but I can't seem to find it or come up with how it would work because I'm new and don't know all the tricks.
Something like:
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var s1=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1")
var s2=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet2")
var ColumnA1 = s1.getRange('A:A').getValues()
var ColumnA2 = s2.getRange('A:A').getValues()
var Row = Function()
///Some function I can't think of using where
if(ColumnA1 + Row !== ColumnA2 + Row){
???.getRow()
}
The code that you had was "kinda' helpful but it did not solve your particular question. On the other hand, your if(ColumnA1 + Row !== ColumnA2 + Row){ wasn't really helpful either.
Regrettably you DO need to "comprehend the whole for (var j = 0; j < range.length; j++) stuff", though it isn't actually that complicated.
In the following answer, there are basically three elements.
setup sheet1, and get the data
setup sheet2, and get the data
loop through the rows and compare the value on a given line from one sheet to the other.
the for statement signifies the loop
i is simply a counter variable
i=0 means that the starting value is zero. In javascript arrays, zero always the first value set.
i < Sheet1Data.length signifies how many time the loop will run. In this case, it will run while i is less then the number of lines in the array. Remember, i starts with zero, so "less than" the totoal number of lines will be fine.
i++ means that each time the code loops, it increments i by one.. So, i starts with 0, then 1, 2, 3 and so on.
How to find the first row where the two columns stop matching
View the Logs (View > Logs).
You can see on line 32 and 38 of the code Logger.log statements. These record the line number and whether the line values in each sheet match.

//Logger.log("DEBUG: Sheet 2 data range = "+Sheet2DataRange.getA1Notation());
var Sheet2length = Sheet2Data.length;
//Logger.log("DEBUG: Sheet2 length = "+Sheet2length);
// Loop through rows compare value per each sheet
for (var i = 0; i < Sheet1Data.length; i++) {
var s1data = Sheet1Data[i][0];
var s2data = Sheet2Data[i][0];
//Logger.log("DEBUG: Line: "+i+", s1data: "+s1data+" Vs s2data: "+s2data);
if (s1data !=s2data){
// sheets values don't balance
Logger.log("Line: "+i+". Sheets are NOT equal. Sheet1 = "+s1data+", Sheet2 = "+s2data);
return false;
}
else
{
// sheets values balance
Logger.log("Line: "+i+". Sheets are equal, value: "+s1data);
}
}
}
This is my test data
I'm having an issue pulling the correct values out of a for loop in Google Sheets.
Here's my code:
Note: this is a snippet from a larger function
function sendEmails() {
var trackOriginSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getName();
var getMirSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Miranda");
//Set a new object to hold conditional data
var holdingData = new Object();
//Create function to get values from origin sheet
var returnedValues = function (trackOriginSheet) {
//Load dynamic variables into an object via returnedValues()
if (trackOriginSheet === getMirSheet) {
var startMirRow = 2; // First row of data to process
var numRowsMir = 506; // Number of rows to process
// Fetch the range of cells A2:Z506
var dataRangeMir = getMirSheet.getRange(startMirRow, 1, numRowsMir, 26);
// Fetch values for each cell in the Range.
var dataMir = dataRangeMir.getValues();
for (var k in dataMir) {
var secondRowMir = dataMir[k];
var intRefDescMir = secondRowMir[3];
var intAdminActionsMir = secondRowMir[4];
//Push returned data to holdingData Object
holdingData.selectedData = secondRowMir;
holdingData.refDesc = intRefDescMir;
holdingData.adminActions = intAdminActionsMir;
}
}
}
Here's a copy of the sheet I'm working on
What I need to have happened here first, is track the origin sheet, then create an object to hold data returned from the returnedValues() function. Later, I'll call the properties of this object into a send email function.
The problem is that I need to be able to pull data from the selected sheet dynamically (the "Miranda" sheet in this case.) In other words, when a user selects the "Yes" option in column I of the Miranda sheet, the first thing this script needs to do is pull the values of the variables at the top of the for loop within the same row that the user selected "Yes." Then, I'm pushing that data to a custom object to be called later.
It's apparent to me, that I'm doing it wrong. There's, at least, something wrong with my loop. What have I done? :)
EDIT:
After reviewing the suggestion by VyTautas, here's my attempt at a working loop:
for (var k = 0; k < dataMir.length; k++) {
var mirColI = dataMir[k][8];
var mirRefDesc = dataMir[k][2];
var mirAdminActions = dataMir[k][3];
var mirDates = dataMir[k][4];
if (mirColI === "Yes") {
var activeRowMir = mirColI.getActiveSelection.getRowIndex();
//Pull selected values from the active row when Yes is selected
var mirRefDescRange = getMirSheet.getRange(activeRowMir, mirRefDesc);
var mirRefDescValues = mirRefDescRange.getValues();
var mirAdminActionsRange = getMirSheet.getRange(activeRowMir, mirAdminActions);
var mirAdminActionsValues = mirAdminActionsRange.getValues();
var mirDatesRange = getMirSheet.getRange(activeRowMir, mirDates);
var mirDatesValues = mirAdminActionsRange.getValues();
var mirHoldingArray = [mirRefDescValues, mirAdminActionsValues, mirDatesValues];
//Push mirHoldingArray values to holdingData
holdingData.refDesc = mirHoldingArray[0];
holdingData.adminActions = mirHoldingArray[1];
holdingData.dates = mirHoldingArray[2];
}
}
Where did all that whitespace go in the actual script editor? :D
You already correctly use .getValues() to pull the entire table into an array. What you need to do now is have a for loop go through dataMir[k][8] and simply fetch the data if dataMir[k][8] === 'Yes'. I also feel that it's not quite necessary to use for (var k in dataMir) as for (var k = 0; k < dataMir.length; k++) is a lot cleaner and you have a for loop that guarantees control (though that's probably more a preference thing).
You can also reduce the number of variables you use by having
holdingData.selectedData = mirData[k]
holdingData.refDesc = mirData[k][2] //I assume you want the 3rd column for this variable, not the 4th
holdingData.adminActions = mirData[k][3] //same as above
remember, that the array starts with 0, so if you mirData[k][0] is column A, mirData[k][1] is column B and so on.
EDIT: what you wrote in your edits seems like doubling down on the code. You already have the data, but you are trying to pull it again and some variables you use should give you an error. I will cut the code from the if, although I don't really see why you need to both get the active sheet and sheet by name. If you know the name will be constant, then just always get the correct sheet by name (or index) thus eliminating the possibility of working with the wrong sheet.
var titleMirRows = 1; // First row of data to process
var numRowsMir = getMirSheet.getLastRow(); // Number of rows to process
// Fetch the range of cells A2:Z506
var dataRangeMir = getMirSheet.getRange(titleMirRows + 1, 1, numRowsMir - titleMirRows, 26); // might need adjusting but now it will only get as many rows as there is data, you can do the same for columns too
// Fetch values for each cell in the Range.
var dataMir = dataRangeMir.getValues();
for (var k = 0; k < dataMir.length; k++) {
if (dataMir[k][7] === 'Yes') { //I assume you meant column i
holdingData.refDesc = dataMir[k] //this will store the entire row
holdingData.adminActions = dataMir[k][3] //this stores column D
holdingData.dates = dataMir[k][4] //stores column E
}
}
Double check if the columns I have added to those variables are what you want. As I understood the object stores the entire row array, the value in column called Administrative Actions and the value in column Dates/Periods if Applicable. If not please adjust accordingly, but as you can see, we minimize the work we do with the sheet itself by simply manipulating the entire data array. Always make as few calls to Google Services as possible.
I want to send an email when a cell in column B reaches 5. However, I want part of the email to have the individual's name from column A. Here's my code so far:
function ifstatement() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Total");
var value = sheet.getRange("B3:B241").getValue();
if(value === 5) {
MailApp.sendEmail("jdoe#gmail.com", "Update", "Hi," name "are you alright?");
}
}
I'm trying to define the variable "name" so that it adds the person's name from column A. Could anyone please help me!
The ideal way to get values from different ranges in a sheet is to pull all the data from the sheet as a single 2D array (A table essentially), and work through that to determine what you want to do. This avoids unnecessary complexity, and also ensures that your execution time stays low since you don't need to call the sheet.getRange() service multiple times.
On String concatenation: your string concatenation would not work. You need + between the strings. Go from "Hi," name "are you alright?" to "Hi, "+ name +" are you alright?".
Here is an example solution for you:
Using this example data:
Note: You don't need to know how the columns bit works, just how to use it, think of it as a small service to make life easier if you ever decide to add, or rearrange the spreadsheet's columns.
/*
* Run this to check the sheets values
* This is more verbose to aid with understanding
*/
function checkSheet() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Total');
var range = sheet.getDataRange();
var values = range.getValues();
var columns = getColumnHeaders(values);
//Loop through all the rows in the sheet and check if the 'Number' column is 5
for(var i = 0; i < values.length; i++){
var number = values[i][columns['Number']]; //Get the number from the table of values, utalizing the columns object to get the index
if(number === 5){
var name = values[i][columns['Name']];
var email = values[i][columns['Email']];
Logger.log(name);
Logger.log(email);
//MailApp.sendEmail(email, "Update", "Hi, "+ name +" are you alright?");
}
}
}
/*
* Generates a columns object that lets you reference columns by name instead of index
* Can be used like column['headerText'] to get the index of a column
* Is just a dynamic convenience to avoid referencing columns by index
*/
function getColumnHeaders(array){
var columns = {};
for(var i = 0; i < array[0].length; i++){
columns[array[0][i]] = i;
}
return columns;
}
Condensed checkSheet():
//Condensed version
function checkSheet2() {
var values = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Total').getDataRange().getValues();
var columns = getColumnHeaders(values);
for(var i = 0; i < values.length; i++){
if(Number(values[i][columns['Number']]) === 5){
//MailApp.sendEmail(values[i][columns['Email']], "Update", "Hi, "+ values[i][columns['Name']] +" are you alright?");
}
}
}
At this line:
var value = sheet.getRange("B3:B241").getValue();
You're using the method getValue() and it only returns the value of the top-left cell of the range, and you need to to get the values of the whole column A an B, so first set the range to A3:B241 then use the method getValues() to get the values as a two-dimensional array. The line should look like this:
var values = sheet.getRange("A3:B241").getValues();
Once you have the Array you need to loop through the values and check if the element at the index 1 values[i][1] is equal to 5. The line should look like this:
for (var i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
if(values[i][1] === 5){
// Block of code to be executed if the condition is true
}
}
Finally, the configuration of paramaters you're using for the sendEmail() method is: (recipient, subject, body) the body of the message needs to be a String, you need to concatenate the "Hi,", the name that is in the index 1 values[i][1] and "are you alright?", to achieve that you need to use the the concatenation operator (+), the line should look like this:
MailApp.sendEmail("jdoe#gmail.com", "Update", "Hi," + values[i][0] + " are you alright?");
The complete code:
function ifstatement() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Total");
var values = sheet.getRange("A3:B241").getValues();
for (var i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
if(values[i][1] === 5){
MailApp.sendEmail("jdoe#gmail.com", "Update", "Hi," + values[i][0] + " are you alright?");
}
}
I'm writing the following code (a test as of now) using Google Scripts to pass data from one spreadsheet to another. The passing of the code is working just fine, however my second For loop – which I intend to use to detect duplicate values and avoid passing those rows over – is not working.
Checking the logs I see that even though the "i" and "j" values are correctly being passed inside the If block, the "if(sheetsIDHome[i] == sheetsIDTarget[j])" statement is never triggering, even when I confirm that both values are the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

Edit. - Right now I'm testing both ID arrays with the same numbers (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4). The log inside my else statement does show the correct values being read for both arrays... I thought it was a scope issue, but now I'm not sure where the problem is.
the issue is a sheet range.getValues() returns an array of arrays, not an array of values.
values[0] is the first row, and values[0][0] is the first value in that first row. rework your code knowing this.
