I just created a new Google form and want an automatic confirmation email to go out when the form is submitted. Essentially, an academic department uses the form to approve or deny transfer credit for a student, and then the automatic email confirmation goes to the student, so that he/she knows the decision without having to contact the student separately.
I did this before with 2 different forms about 5 months ago and never had a problem. But with this new form that I just created, the emails are not working. It appeared to be working yesterday, but I can't recreate the successful email confirmation today. I've looked through the message boards, but haven't found the same exact issue.
I'm using the script editor and creating a trigger "on form submit." I started with the code that I know works for my other form and just changed the values and the message. My script looks like this:
function myFunction(e) {
var UserName = e.values[1];
var LastName = e.values[2];
var FirstName = e.values[3];
var SAGEID = e.values[4];
var UserEmail = e.values[5];
var Dept = e.values[6];
var Coll1 = e.values[11];
var Course1 = e.values[12];
var Req1 = e.values[13];
var Decision1 = e.values[14];
var Coll2 = e.values[15];
var Course2 = e.values[16];
var Req2 = e.values[17];
var Decision2 = e.values[18];
var Coll3 = e.values[19]
var Course3 = e.values[20];
var Req3 = e.values[21];
var Decision3 = e.values[22];
var Coll4 = e.values[23];
var Course4 = e.values[24];
var Req4 = e.values[25];
var Decision4 = e.values[26];
var Notes = e.values[9];
var Subject = "Course Equivalency Request Decision - " + FirstName + " " + LastName + " (" + Dept + ")";
var Message = "The " + Dept + " department has made a decision regarding your course equivalency request. Any questions regarding the decision below should be directed to the " + Dept + " department. " +
"\n\n\nDepartment Comments: " + Notes +
"\n\nCourse 1: " + Coll1 + ": " + Course1 + "\nDecision: " + Decision1 + "\nRequirement: " + Req1 +
"\n\nCourse 2: " + Coll2 + ": " + Course2 + "\nDecision: " + Decision2 +
"\nRequirement: " + Req2 +
"\n\nCourse 3: " + Coll3 + ": " + Course3 + "\nDecision: " + Decision3 +
"\nRequirement: " + Req3 +
"\n\nCourse 4: " + Coll4 + ": " + Course4 + "\nDecision: " + Decision4 +
"\nRequirement: " + Req4 +
"\n\n\nPlease allow 3-4 business days for processing. If after 3-4 business days, your undergraduate degree audit does not reflect these substitutions, please contact the Office of the University Registrar at registrar#brandeis.edu or 781-736-2010." +
MailApp.sendEmail(UserEmail, Subject, Message);
}
I'm banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why a version of this script works perfectly well with a different form, but won't work for me now. I'm relatively new to writing Google scripts, so any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

How do I copy to the clipboard in JavaScript?
(27 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I'm working on a sharepoint webpart which has a button pull elements from different text boxes on the same page and collates them together in a single string to then copy to the user's clipboard so they can quickly put together a communication for an issue. So far I have the below code, but it's not actually copying anything. I've run it through JSHint and that's not turned up any issues, but I picked up the code at the bottom of the function for copying the text from a tutorial about interacting with the clipboard API for how to copy from a text box, hence why I add everything to the smsToSend text area. A note for people is that if there's an issue that's brand new and hasn't been sent out before, then the incident update is always 'we are investigating the issue' as this is automatically placed into the field, which is why I testing against it, as both new and update communications would have 'Open' as the incident status.
function generateSMS(){
var issueTitle = document.getElementById("incidentTitle");
var advisorImpact = document.getElementById("advisorImpact");
var incidentUpdate = document.getElementById("incidentUpdate");
var incidentStatus = document.getElementById("incidentState");
var startTime = document.getElementById("startTime");
var endTime = document.getElementById("endTime");
var smsToSend = document.createElement('textarea');
var incidentPriority = document.getElementById("incidentPriority");
var incidentBrand = "TechTeams";
var systemImpacted = document.getElementById("systemImpacted");
var incidentReference = document.getElementById("incidentReference");
if (incidentStatus != "Closed"){
if (incidentUpdate == "We are investigating this issue"){
smsToSend = "P" + incidentPriority + " " + incidentBrand + "IT ISSUE: " + systemImpacted + ": " + issueTitle + ". " + advisorImpact + ": " + incidentReference;
}
else {
smsToSend = "P" + incidentPriority + " " + incidentBrand + "IT UPDATE: " + systemImpacted + ": " + incidentUpdate + ": " + incidentReference;
}
}
else{
smsToSend = "P" + incidentPriority + " " + incidentBrand + "IT RESOLVED: " + systemImpacted + ": " + incidentUpdate + ": Start: " + startTime + " End: " + endTime + " Reference: " + incidentReference;
}
smsToSend.setAttribute('readonly','');
smsToSend.style = {position: 'absolute', left: '-9999px'};
document.body.appendChild(smsToSend);
smsToSend.select();
document.execCommand('copy');
document.body.removeChild(smsToSend);
}
You can easly copy to clipboard with js like so:
function CopyToClipboard(text) {
/* Get the text field */
var copyText = document.getElementById("elementId").textContent; //here you get the text
var dummy = $('<textarea>').val(copyText).appendTo('body').select();
document.execCommand('copy');//here the text gets copyed
alert("Text copyed to clipboard!");
$(dummy).remove();// here you remove the dummy that has been created previously
}
I am consistently getting a failure report on a time-based trigger I attempted to put into my app script. The script is intended to fire every morning and send out email reminders based on day counts.
I have tried to adjust the script function name that it is calling and change the type of trigger from days to hours.
function loops() {
// Runs at approximately 8:30am in the timezone of the script
ScriptApp.newTrigger('loops')
.timeBased()
.atHour(8)
.nearMinute(30)
.everyDays(1)
.create();
var report = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var emailList = ss.getSheetByName("Email Reminder");
var data = emailList.getRange(3, 19, emailList.getLastRow() - 1, 24).getValues();
//Logger.log(data);
data.forEach(function (row, i) {
var id = row[0];
var customer = row[1];
var user = row[2];
var URL = row[3];
var proposedCount = row[4];
var pendingCount = row[5];
if (proposedCount == 36) {
MailApp.sendEmail(user, customer, customer + " has been in the proposal stage for " + proposedCount + " days." +"\n" +"\n" + URL + "\n" + "\nThis is a reminder to keep this job in front of you :)" + "\n" + "\nYour friendly neighborhood accountability partner");
}
if (pendingCount == 15) {
MailApp.sendEmail(user, customer, customer + " has been in the pending stage for" + pendingCount + " days." + "\n" + "\n" + URL + "\n" + "\nThis is a reminder to keep this job in front of you :)" + "\n" + "\nYour friendly neighborhood accountability partner");
}
});
}
I expect an email to be sent but I keep receiving emails with this error:
Your script, Email Reminder, has recently failed to finish successfully. A summary of the failure(s) is shown below.
6/23/19 10:52 AM: myFunction Script function not found: myFunction time-based 6/23/19 10:52 AM

I'm looking some way to bold text in email and when I open the msgBox.
I want bold only headlines, like in picture below:
this is my script, you choose some cell in row that interests you and run the function. Function show information about data from every cell in row, like inforamtion about "Name" and "email". Then if you push send it will send email with this informations. I want bold headlines for better clarity.
function sendEmail(){
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var fr1 = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var cell = ss.getActiveCell().getRow();
var lastColumn = fr1.getLastColumn();
var lastRowValues = fr1.getRange(cell,1,1,lastColumn).getValues();
var Nr = lastRowValues[0][0];
var Data = lastRowValues[0][1];
var Information = lastRowValues[0][2];
var Name = lastRowValues[0][3];
var email = lastRowValues[0][4];
var urlOfSS = ss.getUrl();
var message = "Message" +
"\n " +
"\nNr: " + Nr +
"\nData: " + Data +
"\nInformation: " + Information +
"\nName " + Name +
"\nEmail: " + email +
"\n " +
"\n Link to spreadsheet:" +
"\n " + urlOfSS;
var emails = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var numRows = emails.getLastRow();
var emailTo = email;
var subject = "Zgłoszenie FAS - " + Nr;
if (email == ""){
Browser.msgBox('This row is empty - Choose another');
} else {
var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
var l = ss.getSheets()[0]
var response = ui.alert('Email', "Do you want email \nNr: " + l.getRange(cell, 1).getValue() + "\nData: " + l.getRange(cell, 2).getValue() + "\nInforamtion: " + l.getRange(cell, 3).getValue()
+ "\nName: " + l.getRange(cell, 4).getValue(), ui.ButtonSet.YES_NO);
if (response == ui.Button.YES) {
GmailApp.sendEmail(emailTo, subject, message);
} else {
Logger.log('The user clicked "No" or the dialog\'s close button.');
}
}
}

If I understand the requirement, Only the side headers(underlined in the screenshot) needs decoration.
While going through the Google Apps Scripts - Documentation, I came through this.
Hope this helps you.
Using the HtmlServices & HtmlOutputFromFile() would fulfill your requirement.
Please refer to Custom Dialogs. This would help you

Hi I have 2 html pages that use functions in a single .js file. The second page needs access to data first initialised by the first page when it calls the .js file:
$(document).ready(function()
{
var destinationTo = "";
var departingFrom = "";
var departing = "";
var returning = "";
var numAdults = "";
var numChildren = "";
var travelType = "";
$("#departing").datepicker();
$("#returning").datepicker();
$("#orderTickets").click(function()
{
destinationTo = $("#myDestination option:selected").text();
departingFrom = $("#myDepart option:selected").text();
departing = $("#departing").val();
returning = $("#returning").val();
numAdults = $("#adults option:selected").text();
numChildren = $("#children option:selected").text();
travelType = $("#class option:selected").text();
var item = document.getElementById("hiddenListItem");
if (departing === "" && returning === "")
{
alert("Please enter your travel dates.");
}
else if (item.style.display !== 'none' && returning === "")
{
alert("Please enter a return date.");
}
else if (departing === "")
{
alert("Please enter a departing date.");
}
else
{
if (item.style.display !== 'list-item')
{
var isConfirmed = confirm("Please confirm your travel: outward journey from " + departingFrom + " on " + departing + " to " + destinationTo +
" adults " + numAdults + " children " + numChildren + " travelling in " + travelType + " coach " + "?");
if(isConfirmed == true)
{
window.location.href = 'PersonDetail.html';
}
}
else
{
var isConfirmed = confirm("Please confirm your travel: outward journey from " + departingFrom + " on " + departing + " to " + destinationTo + " returning on " +
returning + " adults " + numAdults + " children " + numChildren + " travelling in " + travelType + " coach " + "?");
if(isConfirmed == true)
{
window.location.href = 'PersonDetail.html';
}
}
}
});
$("#startAgain").click(function()
{
document.getElementById("travelDetailsForm").reset();
});
$("#finish").click(function()
{
var name = $("#name").val();
var addy1 = $("#address1").val();
var addy2 = $("#address2").val();
var addy3 = $("#address3").val();
var email = $("#email").val();
var number = $("#number").val();
travelType = $("#class option:selected").text();
// test
confirm("name " + name + " addy1 " + addy1 + " addy2 " + addy2 + " addy3 " + addy3 + " email " + email + " number " + number + " detion " + destinationTo);
});
});
I want to be able to access the data in the function call "#orderTickets" in the function "#finish" to dispay the order detils to the user etc. I thought I could put the variables in the global position, but think they reset themselves when another page accesses the .js file.
HTML and javascript are not my thing, would appreciate some help with this.
EDIT: the user clicks "order tickets" on html page 1, .js validates page 1 then directs to html page 2, (same .js file) validates page 2 and hopefully displays data collected from page 1 & 2.
You are partly correct when you say that the variables reset themselves. What actually happens is that each page has their own environment, so the variables from the previous page doesn't even exist any longer. Each page gets their own set of brand new variables.
Also, the variables that you have aren't even global in the page. They exist in the scope of the ready event handler. The reason that the variables exist at all after the ready event handler finishes is that they are caught in the closure of the click event handlers.
To keep the values from one page to the next, you have to store them outside of the page itself. You can for example put the values in a cookie, which you then can read in the second page.
Need some help with this piece of a code. I am able to produce the results I want with the code in Working Code, but when I implement this code on another sheet (which is the master code) it does not work. scratching my head trying to figure this out
