Automate Hyperlink Creations

I'm trying to automate hyperlink creations on my GSheet.
Here's my script:
function ticketURLGenerator() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Data");
var range = sheet.getRange("C2:C");
var ticketID = range.getValue();
Logger.log(ticketID);
for(i = 0; i < ticketID.length; i++){
if(ticketID.length === 0){
ticketID.setValue('')
} else if(ticketID.length > 4){
ticketID.setValue('=HYPERLINK' + '("https://mylink.com/'+ticketID+'";'+ticketID+')');
}
}
}
It does nothing but when I change ticketID.setValue by sheet.getRange("C2:C").setValue it put the whole range in the url. We can see with Logger.log(ticketID) that the whole range is selected.
So according to this result, i'm missing how to get the value of each cell individualy in the range and then check if they are long enought to create an individual url. Do I need to use something like range[i] somewhere? I'm lost.

I believe your goal as follows.
You want to retrieve the values from the cells "C2:C".
When the length of value is more than 4, you want to create a formula of HYPERLINK.
When the length of value is less than 4, you don't want to put the formula.
You want to put the formulas to the cells "C2:C".
Modification points:
When range of var range = sheet.getRange("C2:C") is used, the value of var ticketID = range.getValue() is the value of cell "C2". When you want to retrieve values from the cells "C2:C", please use getValues instead of getValue.
In this case, the retrieved value is 2 dimensional array.
When range.getValue() is the string value, ticketID of var ticketID = range.getValue() is also the string. So I think that when ticketID.setValue('##') is run, an error occurs.
In your script, setValue is used in a loop. In this case, the process cost will become high.
And, when sheet.getRange("C2:C" + sheet.getLastRow()) is used instead of sheet.getRange("C2:C"), the process cost will become low a little.
When above points are reflected to your script, it becomes as follows.
Modified script:
function ticketURLGenerator() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Data");
var range = sheet.getRange("C2:C" + sheet.getLastRow());
var ticketIDs = range.getValues();
var values = ticketIDs.map(([c]) => [c.toString().length > 4 ? `=HYPERLINK("https://mylink.com/${c}";"${c}")` : c]);
range.setValues(values);
}
In this modification, the values are retrieved from the cells of "C2:C" + sheet.getLastRow(), and an array including the formulas and values is created, and then, the array is put to the cells.
And I used the template literal for creating the formula.
Note:
In this case, please use this script with enabling V8 runtime.

getValues()

Template literals

You just need to apply the HYPERLINK operation to the tickets that their length is more than 4. To achieve that, you can use map() to iterate over all the elements in your list.
Solution:
function ticketURLGenerator() {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Data");
const ticketR = sheet.getRange("C2:C"+sheet.getLastRow());
const ticketIDs = ticketR.getDisplayValues().flat();
const hLinks = ticketIDs.map(ti=>{
if(ti.length>4) {
return [`=HYPERLINK("https://mylink.com/${ti}"; ${ti})`]}
else {return [ti]}
})
ticketR.setValues(hLinks);
}

Sync row data based on unique ID in google sheets scripts

I currently have a code that does something very similar to this, but im not sure the small change i need to make to have it work correctly. Right now, the code below compares two rows of unique IDs and if the IDs are the same, it copies the cell in the "Comments" column to the other sheet.
function setComments() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive(),
compare1 = "", compare2 = "",
outputSheet = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet2"),
sourceSheet = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1"),
range1 = outputSheet.getDataRange(),
range2 = sourceSheet.getDataRange(),
lastCol1 = range1.getNumColumns(),
lastCol2 = range2.getNumColumns(),
values1 = range1.getValues(),
values2 = range2.getValues(),
// get the range of the titles
titleSection1 = outputSheet.getRange(1,1,1, lastCol1),
titleSection2 = sourceSheet.getRange(1,1,1, lastCol2),
// get the values from the titles
titles1 = titleSection1.getValues(),
titles2 = titleSection2.getValues(),
// get the column # for "ID" and "comment"
idCol1 = titles1[0].indexOf("ID"),
idCol2 = titles2[0].indexOf("ID"),
commentsCol1 = titles1[0].indexOf("comment"),
commentsCol2 = titles2[0].indexOf("comment");
// get the IDs from range1
for (i = 1; i < values1.length; i++) {
compare1 = values1[i][idCol1];
// get the IDs from range2
for (j = 1; j< values2.length; j++){
compare2 = values2[j][idCol2];
// if same ID, change the values array
if (compare1 == compare2) {
values1[i][commentsCol1] = values2[j][commentsCol2];
}
}
}
// set values based on the values array
range1.setValues(values1);
}
Instead, if there is a change made to any cell on sheet 1, it will find the identical cell based on unique ID in the other sheet and sync the change. What change do i need to make to have this work?
For example, if I change what the office is in the row of ID 1 of sheet 1, it will make the identical change for ID 1 in sheet 2.
Here is an example sheet of what im working with:
Sheet 1:
ID Comment Number Office Clinician
1 good 22345 Dallas
2 bad 12345 Denton
3 good 95954 Lubbock
4 bad 20204 FT.W
5 bad 11111 Denton
6 good 02944 Preston
Sheet 2:
ID Comment Number Office Clinician
1 good 22345 Dallas
3 good 95954 Lubbock
5 bad 11111 Denton

You have one data set on Sheet 1, and a subset of that data set on Sheet1. The key field is the "ID". If there is a change to data on Sheet 1, and the ID relating to that change is found on Sheet 2, then you want to update the relevant dataset on Sheet 2.
The key aspects of this answer are:
onEdit(e): This is an simple Trigger.
e.range: "range" is an Event Object. By using the attribute 'e'; it is possible to recover a substantial amount of information about the changes. In addition, the event objects can be further used to obtain more information - such as (in this case) the Row, Column and Sheet Name.
filter(String).length: Sometimes getting the last row of data is problematic. The answer gets all the data in Column A, and uses the Javascript "array.filter" method. In this case is simply counts the values as strings, andf the resulting value is equal to the Last Row of data.
the "IF" statement evaluates for several attributes:
Is the edit on Sheet1?
Is the edit on a row between the header and last row?
Is the edit in a column that contains data?
the operator is "&&" which requires that each of the attributes must return true.
targetdata.map(function(e){return e[0];});: the script gets ALL the data on Sheet2, but uses the Javascript array.map method to generate a subject of just the values in Column 1 (the ID column).
targetCol1.indexOf(sourceID);: The script uses the Javascript "array.indexOf"; if the ID is found, it will return the index number of the row on Sheet2; if the value isn't found, it will return "-1". The enables a logic statement to be written that will be executed only if the value is not "-1"
target.getRange(+result+1,1,1,sourceLC).setValues(sourcedatatocopy): the last lines of the script get the values in the edited row on Sheet 1, and then update the values on Sheet2. Note: it updates all the values for the matched ID - rather than identifying the changed field and updating only that field.
function onEdit(e) {
// setup spreadsheet and sheet names
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sourceSN = "Sheet1";
var source = ss.getSheetByName(sourceSN);
var targetSN = "Sheet2";
var target = ss.getSheetByName(targetSN);
// get row, column and sheet of the edited sheet
var row = e.range.getRow();
var col = e.range.getColumn();
var editedsheet = e.range.getSheet().getSheetName();
// Logger.log("DEBUG: editedsheet = "+editedsheet)
// get the ID column from Sheet 1
var SourceCol1Vals = ss.getRange("A2:A").getValues();
var SourceLR = SourceCol1Vals.filter(String).length;
// assign value to last column
var sourceLC = 5;
// test for sheet, row range and column range
if (editedsheet == sourceSN && row >=2 && row <=SourceLR && col <=5){
//Logger.log("DEBUG: this is sheet 1 & the right row and the right Col")
// get the data for this row
var sourcedata = source.getRange(row,1,1,5).getValues();
// get the data from target
var targetdata = target.getDataRange().getValues();
// get only the ID column
var targetCol1 = targetdata.map(function(e){return e[0];});
// get the sourse ID
var sourceID = sourcedata[0][0];
// Logger.log("DEBUG: source ID = "+sourceID)
// search for source ID on the Target list
var result = targetCol1.indexOf(sourceID);
// Logger.log("DEBUG: id was found at "+result);
if (result !=-1){
// if -1 then couldn't find the ID, otherwise it returns the index number where it finds the match
// get the data for the Source ID
var sourcedatatocopy = source.getRange(row,1,1,sourceLC).getValues();
// update the darget for the sourceID data.
target.getRange(+result+1,1,1,sourceLC).setValues(sourcedatatocopy)
}
} else{
// Logger.log("DEBUG: not sheet 1 or right row or right col");
}
return;
}

Is it possible to pull different data sets from one column?

I've been trying to write some code that looks down one column with strings based on some simple formulas. I can't seem to get it to recognize the different sets of data and paste them where I want them.
I have tried re writing the code a few different ways in which is looks at all the data and just offsets the destination row by 1. But it does not recognize that it is pull different data.
Below is the code that works. What it does is starts from the 1st column 2nd row (where my data starts). The data is a list like;
A
1 Customer1
2 item1
3 item2
4 Item3
5
6 Customer2
7 Item1
The formulas that I have in those cells just concatenates some other cells.
Using a loop it looks through column A and find the blank space. It then "breaks" whatever number it stops on, the numerical A1 notation of the cell, it then finds the values for those cells and transposes them In another sheet in the correct row.
The issue I am having with the code this code that has worked the best is it doesn't read any of the cells as blank
(because of the formulas?) and it transposes all to the same row.
function transpose(){
var data = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var input =data.getSheetByName("EMAIL INPUT");
var output = data.getSheetByName("EMAIL OUTPUT");
var lr =input.getLastRow();
for (var i=2;i<20;i++){
var cell = input.getRange(i, 1).getValue();
if (cell == ""){
break
}
}
var set = input.getRange(2, 1, i-1).getValues();
output.getRange(2,1,set[0].length,set.length) .
.setValues(Object.keys(set[0]).map ( function (columnNumber) {
return set.map( function (row) {
return row[columnNumber];
});
}));
Logger.log(i);
Logger.log(set);
}
What I need the code to do is look through all the data and separate the sets of data by a condition.
Then Transpose that information on another sheet. Each set (or array) of data will go into a different row. With each component filling across the column (["customer1", "Item1","Item2"].
EDIT:
Is it Possible to pull different data sets from a single column and turn them into arrays? I believe being able to do that will work if I use "appendrow" to tranpose my different arrays to where I need them.

Test for the length of cell. Even if it is a formula, it will evaluate the result based on the value.
if (cell.length !=0){
// the cell is NOT empty, so do this
}
else
{
// the cell IS empty, so do this instead
}
EXTRA
This code takes your objective and completes the transposition of data.
The code is not as efficient as it might/should because it includes getRange and setValues inside the loop.
Ideally the entire Output Range could/should be set in one command, but the (unanswered) challenge to this is knowing in advance the maximum number rows per contiguous range so that blank values can be set for rows that have less than the maximum number of rows.
This would be a worthwhile change to make.

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var inputsheetname = "EMAIL_INPUT";
var inputsheet = ss.getSheetByName(inputsheetname);
var outputsheetname = "EMAIL_OUTPUT";

Google App Script to Break out Query Parameters in Google Sheets

I have a Google Sheet with 100 https request URLs with query parameters. The URLs look like this:
https://122.2o7.net/b/ss/ryan1/1/JS-2.0.0/s12345678?AQB=1&ndh=1&pf=1&t=6%2F9%2F2018%208%3A48%3A34%206%20360&ts=1538837314190&vid=test&fid=1w23232-erwwwre&ce=UTF-8&ns=ryan&pageName=ryan%3Atest%3Apage&g=https%3A%2F%2Fryanpraski.com%2F&cc=USD&ch=home&events=event1&c1=D%3Dv1&v1=evar1value&h1=hier1value&v20=evar20value&bh=8&AQE=1
I want to use Google App Script to break out the query parameters and put them neatly into the Google Sheet like this:
I got as far as the code below to break query string and split the query string parameters by the & delimiter, but I am not sure what to do next.
A couple cases that I need to consider as well.
There could be URLs with more or fewer parameters than my sample URL, but there will always be some overlay. I want to have the column headers automatically update.
There could be values like c1=D%3Dv1 where the decoded value is c1=D=v1
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
function test() {
var url = "https://122.2o7.net/b/ss/ryan1/1/JS-2.0.0/s12345678?AQB=1&ndh=1&pf=1&t=6%2F9%2F2018%208%3A48%3A34%206%20360&ts=1538837314190&vid=test&fid=1w23232-erwwwre&ce=UTF-8&ns=ryan&pageName=ryan%3Atest%3Apage&g=https%3A%2F%2Fryanpraski.com%2F&cc=USD&ch=home&events=event1&c1=D%3Dv1&v1=evar1value&h1=hier1value&v20=evar20value&bh=8&AQE=1";
var cleanUrl = decodeURIComponent(url);
var params = cleanUrl.split('?')[1];
var s = params;
var t = s.split('&');
var output = [];
t.forEach(function(q) {
output.push([q]);
});
Logger.log(output);
}

The following code breaks out the query parameters and puts them into a specific sheet. It also addresses a couple of possible scenarios:
1 There is no match for an existing code. In that case, a space is entered as a place holder.
2 The URL includes codes not included in the existing list. In that case, the "new" code(s) are added to the list, and their values are recorded also.
3 As the questioner pointed out, some URL parameters include multiple "Equals" signs ("="). Split can't be used in this case because though a parameter can be used to limit the number of split found, the left-over text is not returned in the new array. So I used indexOf (which returned the index of the first occurrence of searchValue) and subString to calculate the two parts of the URL component.
I assumed that the existing list of codes was in Row1, so I created a NamedRange to be able to manage them. If the code finds URL parameters that don't find a match with the codes in the Named Range, then the NamedRange is deleted and re-created to include the "new" codes.
The code outputs results to the "third sheet" (ss.getSheets()2;) in the spreadsheet; this is something that can be changed.
The last row containing data is determined, and the results of the analysis are set in the following row
Note: the url is hard coded.
function so_52825789() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var datasheet = ss.getSheets()[2];
// the codes are in Row1 in a Named Range called DataVariables

// Logger.log("the new named range is = "+rangeCheckName);//DEBUG
} // end of the loop to identify URL variables that didn't match a code in the NamedRange
}
Note the addition value of the c1 code includes the relevant equals sign. Also the URL includes an additional parameter ("ejb=1") that is not in the existing list; this code and its value are added to the spreadsheet, and the NamedRange now includes the "new" code.

Match text strings of two columns on different sheet and post back using google script

I am trying to match two columns on two separate worksheets in the same workbook
I'm am trying to match column A in both sheets
SheetA = FindReplace SheetB = Test
If a match exists then post back the value to the right of the match cell in SheetA to the same row in SheetB but in Column B
The ranges in the matching columns may be different in size
The function runs but NO matches are found
Also, I think I am posting back each row that is found but I would like to post back only once after ALL matches are found
Thank you for any help with this
If is helpful here a GS with some data and the function in it:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cVyCmnFYy_4Ghmx1r-dvCGhxrnu-tCPaKZSX_BRHfnM/edit?usp=sharing
function MatchColumns(){
// gets spreadsheet A and the range of data
var sheetA =SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("FindReplace");
var dataA = sheetA.getRange('A:B').getValues();
// gets spreadsheet B and the range of data
var sheetB = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Test");
var dataB = sheetB.getRange('A:B').getValues();
// loops through column A of spreadsheet A & B and compare
for(var i = 0; i > sheetA.getLastRow(); i++){
// checks to see if ith row value in 1st Column is the same
if(dataA[i][0] == dataB[i][0]){
//if match then get cell value in ajacent cell column B to right in sheetA
var value = sheetA.getRange(i+1, 2).getValue();
//Post Back the value in cell to column B in sheet B
sheetB.getRange(i+1, 2).setValue(value);
};
};
}

How about this modification? Please think of this as one of several solutions.
It processed the data as array.
If the value of column A of sheetB is not existing to the column A of sheetA, if (b != res.length - 1) res.push([""]); is used.
The length of created array is necessary to be the same to the length of dataB. I used this.
Modified script :
function MatchColumns(){
// gets spreadsheet A and the range of data
var sheetA =SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("FindReplace");
var dataA = sheetA.getRange(2, 1, sheetA.getLastRow(), 2).getValues();
// gets spreadsheet B and the range of data
var sheetB = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Test");
var dataB = sheetB.getRange(2, 1, sheetB.getLastRow(), 1).getValues();
// Added
var res = [];
for (var b in dataB) {
for (var a in dataA) {
if (dataA[a][0] == dataB[b][0]) res.push([dataA[a][1]]);
}
if (b != res.length - 1) res.push([""]);
}
sheetB.getRange(2, 2, res.length, res[0].length).setValues(res);
}
Result :
If I misunderstand your question, please tell me. I would like to modify.

The function did run after changing the > for <
