I have created a script to retrieve data from REST API. I can view all the array data in logger. How do I add all those data into rows. This is my current function:
function myFunction() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var mainSheet = ss.getSheetByName("test")
mainSheet.getRange('A1:A3').clear();
var apiKey = 'test';
var URL_STRING = "test";
var url = URL_STRING + "?ApiKey=" + apiKey;
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url);
var json = response.getContentText();
var data = JSON.parse(json);
var arr = [];
//Logger.log(data.output.o1);
for (var i=0;i<data.output.o1.length;i++){
x=(data.output.o1[i].company_name);
arr.push(x);
Logger.log(arr);
}
}
This is the sample output for arr:
This is my expected output:
I believe your goal as follows.
You want to put the values of arr from row 2 of the column "A" in the sheet "test".
In this case, how about the following modification?
From:
for (var i=0;i<data.output.o1.length;i++){
x=(data.output.o1[i].company_name);
arr.push(x);
Logger.log(arr);
}
To:
for (var i = 0; i < data.output.o1.length; i++) {
x = (data.output.o1[i].company_name);
arr.push([x]); // Modified
Logger.log(arr);
}
mainSheet.getRange(2, 1, arr.length).setValues(arr); // Added
If you want to append the values to the sheet, please modify mainSheet.getRange(2, 1, arr.length).setValues(arr); as follows.
mainSheet.getRange(mainSheet.getLastRow() + 1, 1, arr.length).setValues(arr);

EDIT: I need help combining functions into 1 and adding a trigger.
In my spreadsheet I have rows 4-100 for customer service calls that are filtered from a "ServiceData" worksheet by either choosing a "Service Month" or "Service Day" (ie. "7/11" shows only 5 rows where "July" would show 65 rows) . Each row item has corresponding Place IDs for origin/destination in column K and L with an order # (as in 1st, 2nd, 3rd... service call of the day) in column J .
TravelTime spreadsheet
I'm using the following custom function travelTime() in cells M4:M100 to calculate driving duration and distance between 2 place IDs:
function travelTime(origin,destination) {
var API_KEY = PropertiesService.getScriptProperties().getProperty('keyMaps');
var baseUrl = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/json? units=imperial&origins=";
var queryUrl = baseUrl + "place_id:" + origin + "&destinations=" +
"place_id:" + destination + "&mode=driving" + "&key=" + API_KEY;
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(queryUrl);
var json = response.getContentText();
var time = JSON.parse(json);
return [[ time.rows[0].elements[0].duration.text,
time.rows[0].elements[0].distance.text ]] ;
A major issue is that many unnecessary service calls are being made to the API when I'm making edits to the "ServiceData" spreadsheet (ie. service date changes when a particular day is over-scheduled) and not needing the travel time updated until I'm done working through a schedule .
After researching quite a bit there seems to be several options I could be using; caching, looping, arrays, and putting everything into a script then attach to a button to only run when ready. Considering I'm a newbie, putting all these options together are definitely beyond my skill level and could really use some help.
EDIT with new functions:
So after more researching I have been able to put together the following functions that when each are run independently work great. Now the problem I'm having is putting these all together in particular adjusting the original travelTime()into newTravelTime(). I have made an attempt towards the right direction below but can't figure out how to get the API call in there .
function newTravelTime() {//<--**having issues how to write this function
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sourceSheet = ss.getSheetByName("MonthlySA");
var sourceR = sourceSheet.getRange(4, 11, sourceSheet.getLastRow()-3, 4);
var sourceV = sourceR.getValues();
var array = [];
for (var i = 0; i < sourceV.length; i++) {
if (sourceV[i][2] == "") {
var origin = sourceV[i][0];//ori place IDs for API query
var destination = sourceV[i][1];//des place IDs API api query
}
array.push([sourceV[i][2]]);
}
sourceSheet.getRange(4, 13, array.length, 1).setValues(array);
I'd like to create a final getTravelTime() with all the functions and add an OnEdit trigger when either "Service Month" or "Service Day" changes in cells B1 or B2 to run them. If there is any advice with my functions themselves I would really appreciate some help, I am very new with this and trying.
///checks if origin/destination are already in the cacheSheet then return travel time to sourceSheet
function getCachedTravelTime() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sourceSheet = ss.getSheetByName("MonthlySA");
var sourceR = sourceSheet.getRange(4, 11, sourceSheet.getLastRow()-3, 4);
var sourceV = sourceR.getValues();
var cacheSheet = ss.getSheetByName("TravelTimeCache");
var cacheR = cacheSheet.getRange(2, 1, cacheSheet.getLastRow()-1, 4);
var cacheV = cacheR.getValues();

sourceV[i][3] = cacheV[j][3]; //column with travel distance
}
}

///if cache not found - get the new travelTime for that origin/destination on sourceSheet...
function newTravelTime() {//<--

///...and store the new travelTime() in cacheSheet
function storeTravelTime() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sourceSheet = ss.getSheetByName("MonthlySA");
var sourceR = sourceSheet.getRange(4, 11, sourceSheet.getLastRow()-3, 4);
var sourceV = sourceR.getValues();

var duplicate = false;
for (var j = 0; j < cacheV.length; j++) {
if (sourceV[i][0]+sourceV[i][1] == cacheV[j][0]+cacheV[j][1]) {
duplicate = true;
}
}
if(!duplicate){ //if origin/destination columns from sourceSheet are NOT matched on cacheSheet
array.push([sourceV[i][0], sourceV[i][1], sourceV[i][2], sourceV[i][3]]);//columns with new data
}
}
//add new data to last row of cacheSheet
cacheSheet.getRange(cacheSheet.getLastRow()+1, 1, array.length, 4).setValues(array);
}
One of the easiest solution thats coming to mind is Caching. Instead of making API calls everytime check if we have already made that call previously.
Something like this
function getTravelTime(origin, destination) {
var travelTime = getTravelTimeFromPreviousCall(origin, destination);
if (travelTime != null) {
return travelTime;
} else {
var travelTime = fetchTravelTime(origin, destination);
storeTravelTime(origin, destination, travelTime);
return travelTime;
}
}
function fetchTravelTime(origin, destination) {
var API_KEY = PropertiesService.getScriptProperties().getProperty('keyMaps');
var baseUrl = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/json? units=imperial&origins=";
var queryUrl = baseUrl + "place_id:" + origin + "&destinations=" + "place_id:" + destination + "&mode=driving" + "&key=" + API_KEY;
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(queryUrl);
var json = response.getContentText();
var time = JSON.parse(json);
return time.rows[0].elements[0].duration.text;
}
For this we can define our cache something like :
A sheet with column -
origin
destination
travel time
And we need to define following functions:
getTravelTimeFromPreviousCall(origin, destination) : In this we need to check cache and return travel time for that origin & destination, if not found then return null
storeTravelTime(origin, destination, time) : This will only store travel time for future use in cache sheet
You can try something like this :
function getTravelTimeFromPreviousCall(origin, destination) {
var cacheSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(SPREADSHEET_ID).getSheetByName(CACHE_SHEET_NAME);
var cacheData = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
for (var i=0; i<cacheData.length; i++) {
if (cacheData[i][ORIGIN_COLUMN_INDEX]==origin && cacheData[i][DESTINATION_COLUMN_INDEX]==destination) {
return cacheData[i][TRAVEL_TIME_COLUMN_INDEX];
}
}
return null;
}
function storeTravelTime(origin, destination, travelTime) {
var cacheSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(SPREADSHEET_ID).getSheetByName(CACHE_SHEET_NAME);
sheet.appendRow([origin, destination, travelTime]);
}
Please fix loop variable, array indexes & constants, as per your sheet.
I'm trying to fetch my ETH balance and transactions from etherscan.io website and I'm trying to use the same code I used before for another website. But it seems returning me an empty array, and also the error "The coordinates or dimensions of the range are invalid."
This is the code:
function getTx() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Data");
var url = 'http://api.etherscan.io/api?module=account&action=txlist&address=0x49E81AA0cFE7eeA9738430212DC6677acF2f01a1&sort=asc';
var json = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url).getContentText();
var data = JSON.parse(json);
var rows = [],
array;
for (i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
array = data[i];
rows.push([array.timeStamp, array.from, array.to, array.value]);
}
Logger.log(rows)
askRange = sheet.getRange(3, 1, rows.length, 3);
askRange.setValues(rows);
}
The logged "rows" is empty, what am I doing wrong?
Thank you
How about a following modification?
Modification points :
There is data you want at data.result.
Number of columns of data is 4.
Modified script :
function getTx() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Data");
var url = 'http://api.etherscan.io/api?module=account&action=txlist&address=0x49E81AA0cFE7eeA9738430212DC6677acF2f01a1&sort=asc';
var json = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url).getContentText();
var data = JSON.parse(json);
var rows = [],
array;
for (i = 0; i < data.result.length; i++) { // Modified
array = data.result[i];
rows.push([array.timeStamp, array.from, array.to, array.value]);
}
Logger.log(rows)
askRange = sheet.getRange(3, 1, rows.length, 4); // Modified
askRange.setValues(rows);
}
If I misunderstand your question, I'm sorry.
I have a script that gets information from an API and writes it to google sheets. In the data from the API the numbers all look normal but once written to google sheets they are all changed. for example 4319.05 is written back as 4319:05:00.000.
When I try to format the range after its been pasted to the sheet I get really strange results where 4319:05:00.000 formatted as number, gives the value of 179.96.
The API can be found at:
https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/
The code used is as follows:
function getCoinMarketCapAPI() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheets = ss.getSheets();
var sheet = ss.getActiveSheet();
Logger.log(sheets)
var url="https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/";
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url); // get feed
var dataAll = JSON.parse(response.getContentText()); //
var dataSet = dataAll;
Logger.log(dataSet)
var rows = [],
data;
Logger.log(rows)
for (i = 0; i < dataSet.length; i++) {
data = dataSet[i];
rows.push([data.id,data.name,data.symbol,data.rank,data.price_usd,data.price_btc,data.percent_change_1h,data.percent_change_24h,data.percent_change_7d,data.last_updated]);
}
dataRange = sheet.getRange(6, 1, rows.length, 10);
dataRange.setValues(rows);
}
Any help would be so appreciated! =)
Thanks in advance!
Your script worked fine for the numbers. I did have to fix the date. Format for my sheet is automatic.
function getCoinMarketCapAPI() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheets = ss.getSheets();
var sheet = ss.getActiveSheet();
var url="https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/";
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url); // get feed
var dataAll = JSON.parse(response.getContentText()); //
var dataSet = dataAll;
var rows = [],data;
for (i = 0; i < dataSet.length; i++) {
data = dataSet[i];
var d=new Date(data.last_updated*1000)// convert to date
rows.push([data.id,data.name,data.symbol,data.rank,data.price_usd,data.price_btc,data.percent_change_1h,data.percent_change_24h,data.percent_change_7d,d]);
}
dataRange = sheet.getRange(6, 1, rows.length, 10);
dataRange.setValues(rows);
}
Here is my test spreadsheet you can copy and try.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dg2opJG3NEc_Ud5MrXnuFplDXnVoO9_ul-QW_MczWZ8/edit?usp=sharing
I'm trying to insert some data from a spreadsheet into a different spreadsheet, the problem is that the loop is not behaving as expected, it only gives me one entry in the target spreadsheet. I've tried using while and no function but it didn't work.
Here is the code:
function move(){
var homeBook = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = homeBook.getSheets()[0];
var limit = sheet.getLastRow(); //number of rows in the sheet
var evento = sheet.getRange(2, 1, limit-1).getValues(); //event list
var descript = sheet.getRange(2,2,limit-1).getValues(); //description list
var tags = sheet.getRange(2,3,limit-1).getValues(); //tag list
var sheetsIDHome = sheet.getRange(2,4,limit-1).getValues(); //ID list
var targetBook = SpreadsheetApp.openById("1t3qMTu2opYffLmFfTuIbV6BrwsDe9iLHZJ_ZT89kHr8"); //target workbook
var target = targetBook.getSheets()[0]; //Sheet1
var targetLimit =target.getLastRow(); //Rows with content
var sheetsIDTarget = target.getRange(targetLimit, 4); // ID list
var targetRow = targetLimit+1; //row where content is going to be inserted
for(i = 2;i <= limit;i++){//loop for each value to be inserted in each row of the target sheet
(function(x){
target.getRange(targetRow,1).setValue(x);
target.getRange(targetRow,2).setValue(descript[2]);
target.getRange(targetRow,3).setValue(tags[3]);
target.getRange(targetRow,4).setValue(sheetsIDHome[4]);
targetRow = targetRow++;
})(i);
};
You're trying to access the four arrays created from the values for columns 1-4.
Your for statement needs to match their structure, starting with the first array instance of 0. You can use any of the arrays for the iteration, I've chosen the first.
In addition, I've removed the function and replaced x with the instance from evento.
++ increments the value of the variable, no need for assignment there.
for (var i = 0; i < evento.length; i++) {
target.getRange(targetRow,1).setValue(evento[i]);
target.getRange(targetRow,2).setValue(descript[i]);
target.getRange(targetRow,3).setValue(tags[i]);
target.getRange(targetRow,4).setValue(sheetsIDHome[i]);
targetRow++;
}
there is a code that has been mis-placed, kindly check my code below:
function UpdateBSRSpecial()
{
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var testForm = ss.getSheetByName("ENTRY FORM");
var testTable = ss.getSheetByName("BSR DATA");
var testFormValue = testForm.getRange("G6").getValue();
var rangeData = testTable.getDataRange();
var lastColumn = rangeData.getLastColumn();
var lastRow = rangeData.getLastRow();
for(var i=2;i<=lastRow;i++){
var dataID = testTable.getRange(i,1).getValue();
if(testFormValue == dataID)
{
testTable.getRange(i,6).setValue("new value");
};
};
};
hope this helps
I'm learning Google Apps Scripts for use with Google Spreadsheets.
I have a list of URLs in one column and I want to write a script to get the title element from each URL and write it in the adjacent cell. I have accomplished this for one specific cell as per the following script:
function getTitles() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("url_list");
var range = sheet.getRange("G3");
var url = range.getValue();
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url);
var doc = Xml.parse(response.getContentText(),true);
var title = doc.html.head.title.getText();
var output = sheet.getRange("H3").setValue(title);
Logger.log(title);
return title;
}
This gets the URL in G3, parses it, pulls the element and writes the output in H3.
Now that I have this basic building block I want to loop the entire G column and write the output to the adjacent cell but I'm stuck. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
May look something like this:
function getTitles() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("url_list");
var urls = sheet.getRange("G3:G").getValues();
var titleList = [], newValues = [],
response, doc, title;
for (var row = 0, var len = urls.length; row < len; row++) {
if (urls[row] != '') {
response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(urls[row]);
doc = Xml.parse(response.getContentText(),true);
title = doc.html.head.title.getText();
newValues.push([title]);
titleList.push(title);
Logger.log(title);
} else newValues.push([]);
}
Logger.log('newValues ' + newValues);
Logger.log('titleList ' + titleList);
// SET NEW COLUMN VALUES ALL AT ONCE!
sheet.getRange("H3").offset(0, 0, newValues.length).setValues(newValues);
return titleList;
}
