Since the NATIVE sandbox on google apps script is deprecated, I'm switching to IFRAME, which has caused some issues.
The basic outline of the app is that it should allow a user to fill in some information and upload a file (it also makes sure all required fields are completed). Upon submission (by clicking a button), the file should be uploaded to a folder in google drive and a spreadsheet should be updated with the user's information. When I'm in NATIVE, everything works fine. When I set it to IFRAME, nothing happens when I click the submit button.
This is a similar issue to here and here, but neither of them directly address my problem. I also tried following the Google Guide but it didn't help.
Here is my server.gs script:
function doGet(e) {
return template = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('form.html').setSandboxMode(HtmlService.SandboxMode.IFRAME);
}
function uploadFiles(form) {
try {
var dropbox = "Applications";
var folder, folders = DriveApp.getFoldersByName(dropbox);
if (folders.hasNext()) {
folder = folders.next();
} else {
folder = DriveApp.createFolder(dropbox);
}
var CV = form.CV;
var foldername = form.myLastName + ", " + form.myFirstName;
var myFolder = folder.createFolder(foldername);
var file_CV = myFolder.createFile(CV);
var CV_url = file_CV.getUrl();
var sheet_return = addApplicant(form, CV_url);
return "Thank you for your submission."
} catch (error) {
return error.toString();
}
}
function addApplicant(form, CV_url) {
try {
var d = new Date()
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl(***INSERT URL TO GOOGLE SHEETS PAGE***);
SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSpreadsheet(ss);
SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSheet(ss.getSheets()[0]);
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
if (form.visa != "Yes"){
form.visa = "No"
}
sheet.appendRow([d, form.myFirstName, form.myLastName, form.myEmail, form.visa, CV_url]);
} catch (error) {
return error.toString();
}
}
Here is my form.html script:

This is the script that takes user inputs from the html and (ideally) transfers them to a google spreadsheet:
function doGet(e){
Logger.log(e);
var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile("userForm");
html.setTitle("Record Time")
return(html)
}
function addEntry(entry){
Logger.log("Someone clicked the button");
var ssid = "1E81*****************QBmW1o4Q";
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(ssid);
SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSpreadsheet(ss);
var database = ss.getSheetByName("Database");
SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSheet(database);
database.appendRow = ([entry]);
}
When I click the button, nothing happens. I am sure that I am calling the correct spreadsheet because I can read and write from the doGet() function, but there seems to be a problem with the addLine() function that I cannot find.
Any help is greatly appreciated, I am very new to web app development.
What I want is for the button to transfer the data from some text input fields to a google spreadsheet. I used multiple different button syntaxes but cannot nothing happens.
You are passing an object to addEntry you should pass an array.
Change
var entry = {
entry.fn = firstName.value;
entry.ln = lastName.value;
entry.op = operation.value;
};
To
var entry = [
firstName.value,
lastName.value,
operation.value
];
Also you have a typo in your client script. Change
var operation = document.getElementByName("operation");
To
var operation = document.getElementsByName("operation");
However getElementsByName returns a node list so to find the checked radio button you need to add this to your client script.
let operations = document.getElementsByName("operation");
let operation = null;
for( let i=0; i<operations.length; i++ ) {
if( operations[i].checked ) {
operation = operations[i];
break;
}
}
When users click submit, I've coded an error message to appear under each input field that is missing a value using DOM selectors. I also disabled the email file that opens when submit is clicked, using preventDefault().
However, when the user types into the text area, the messages don't disappear. I tried using a 'keydown' event, but I couldn't get it to work.
HTML code:
<body>
<header class="header">
<form action="mailto:me#fakeemail.com">
<fieldset>
<legend>Personal details</legend>
<p>
<label>
Full name:
<input type="text" name="fullname" id="fullname">
</label>
</p>
<p class="errormsg" id="nameerrormsg">Please enter your name above</p>
<p>
<label>
Street Address:
<input type="text" name="streetaddr" id="streetaddr">
</label>
</p>
<p class="errormsg" id="addrerrormsg">Please enter your street address</p>
</fieldset>
<input type="submit" value="Submit it!" class="submitIt" onsubmit="return checkForm();">
</form>
<br>
<script src="inline-error.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<div class="returnHome">
Return Home
</div>
</header>
</body>
Javascript code:
var submitIt = document.querySelector(".submitIt");
submitIt.addEventListener("click", function checkForm(event) {
var fNameInput = document.querySelector("#fullname")
var streetAddInput = document.querySelector("#streetaddr")
if (fNameInput.value == "") {
var nameErrorMsg = document.querySelector("#nameerrormsg").style.display = "block";
event.preventDefault();
}
if (streetAddInput.value == "") {
var addrErrorMsg = document.querySelector("#addrerrormsg").style.display = "block";
event.preventDefault();
}
})
To see an immediate result in the code in its current state, hide the error messages before checking the input values.
var submitIt = document.querySelector('.submitIt');
submitIt.addEventListener('click', function checkForm(event) {
var nameErrorMsg = document.querySelector('#nameerrormsg');
var addrErrorMsg = document.querySelector('#addrerrormsg');
nameErrorMsg.style.display = 'none';
addrErrorMsg.style.display = 'none';
var fNameInput = document.querySelector('#fullname');
var streetAddrInput = document.querySelector('#streetaddr');
if (fNameInput.value == '') {
nameErrorMsg.style.display = 'block';
event.preventDefault();
}
if (streetAddrInput.value == '') {
addrErrorMsg.style.display = 'block';
event.preventDefault();
}
});
Having said that, here are some additional suggestions:
Use CSS for styling elements (not JavaScript)
Discourage inline JavaScript
Store DOM elements outside the scope of the event listener so you don't have to query the DOM every time you click
Consider utilizing the required attribute on the inputs for a quick win on styling
So...

I'm busy with an Apps Script Web App and would like to populate input boxes within the web app with data from a google sheet.
I'm trying to retrieve data when a button is clicked and populate fields within the webapp with the data that is retrieved from the sheet. I just can't seem to get the text box fields to be updated after retrieving the data from google sheets.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The code I have so far is:
Code.gs file
function doGet() {
var htmlOutput = HtmlService.createTemplateFromFile("page");
return htmlOutput.evaluate();
}
function include(filename) {
return HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile(filename).getContent();
}
var idx;
var nextLead;
var totalLeads;
var remainingLeads;
function assignLead() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById("sheetId");
var ws = ss.getSheetByName("leads");
var range = ws.getRange(1, 1, ws.getLastRow(), ws.getLastColumn())
var data = range.getValues();
//console.log(data);
var status = data.map(function (row) {
return row[11];
});
//console.log(status);
idx = status.indexOf("unassigned");
//console.log(idx)
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
nextLead = data[idx];
updateStatusAssigned(idx)
}
// console.log(nextLead);
// console.log(data);
}
function updateStatusAssigned(row) {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById("SheetId");
var ws = ss.getSheetByName("leads");
var range = ws.getRange(1, 1, ws.getLastRow(), ws.getLastColumn())
ws.getRange(idx + 1, 12).setValue("assigned")

<script>
document.getElementById("btn-getLead").addEventListener("click",getLeadData);
function getLeadData(){
google.script.run.assignLead()
document.getElementById("name") = nextLead[0];
}
</script>
Modification points:
Unfortunately, the variables declared as the global at Google Apps Script side cannot be used for Javascript side. So nextLead of document.getElementById("name") = nextLead[0]; cannot be used.
I thought that this is due to the reason of your issue.
In this case, withSuccessHandler can be used.
And, I think that document.getElementById("name") = nextLead[0]; occurs an error. In this case, please modify to document.getElementById("name").value = nextLead[0];.
When above points are reflected to your script, it becomes as follows.
Modified script:
Google Apps Script side:
Please modify assignLead() as follows.
From:
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
nextLead = data[idx];
updateStatusAssigned(idx)
}
// console.log(nextLead);
// console.log(data);
}
To:
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
nextLead = data[idx];
updateStatusAssigned(idx)
}
// console.log(nextLead);
// console.log(data);
return nextLead; // Added
}
Javascript side:
From:
function getLeadData(){
google.script.run.assignLead()
document.getElementById("name") = nextLead[0];
}
To:
function getLeadData(){
google.script.run.withSuccessHandler(nextLead => {
document.getElementById("name").value = nextLead[0];
}).assignLead();
}
Note:
In this modified script, it supposes that your function of assignLead() works fine and nextLead is the correct value you want. Please be careful this.
Reference:
withSuccessHandler(function)
This is a simple contact form using HTML CSS and JavaScript. I am not able to get a message after the form submit button is entered. It redirects me to a page that displays the submitted details and I don't want that to happen obviously. I wish to get a toast message after submit button is clicked, and to reset the form. I have added an extra button just to check functionality for toast. I am really stuck on this!!
Please help!

You can add event on click of button and use reset() to reset the form values. Add following code in your script section:
$('.button-success').on('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault() //This stops page loading
$("#myToast").toast('show'); //Show toast
document.getElementsByName('data-form')[0].reset() //reset field values of the form
})
Add name parameter to your form tag to access it inside this function. (For ex: I have added name as 'data-form')

Here is what I have in my html file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<base target="_top">
</head>
<body>
<div >
<input id="fn" type="text" >
<label for="fn">First Name</label>
</div>
<div >
<input id="ln" type="text">
<label for="ln">Last Name</label>
</div>
<button id="btn">Add</button>
<script>
document.getElementById("btn").addEventListener("click",doStuff);
function doStuff(){
var userInfo = {}
userInfo.firstName = document.getElementById("fn").value;
userInfo.lastName = document.getElementById("ln").value;
google.script.run.userClicked(userInfo);
document.getElementById("fn").value = "";
document.getElementById("ln").value = "";
}
</script>
Here is my problem: when I type something in input fields and click the button, nothing is passed onto the spreadsheet, but, the entry gets cleared in the input fields.
Try this:
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<base target="_top">
</head>
<body>
<div >
<input id="fn" type="text" >
<label for="fn">First Name</label>
</div>
<div >
<input id="ln" type="text">
<label for="ln">Last Name</label>
</div>
<button id="btn">Add</button>
<script>
window.onload=function(){
document.getElementById("btn").addEventListener("click",doStuff);
function doStuff(){
var userInfo = {}
userInfo.firstName = document.getElementById("fn").value;
userInfo.lastName = document.getElementById("ln").value;
google.script.run
.withSuccessHandler(function(){
document.getElementById("fn").value = "";
document.getElementById("ln").value = "";
})
.userClicked(userInfo);
}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
GS:
function userClicked(userInfo){
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var ws = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
ws.appendRow([userInfo.firstName, userInfo.lastName, new Date()])
}
function showMySideBar() {
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showSidebar(HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('ah1'))
}
