Unable to access all ItemResponses in a FormResponse - arrays

I have a strange error occurring in an Apps Script function attached to a Google Form.
I call the responses, then list them in an array. The log shows that there are 6 items in the array, which matches the six form questions:
[18-05-08 00:13:31:900 AEST] [ItemResponse, ItemResponse, ItemResponse, ItemResponse, ItemResponse, ItemResponse]
When I call the first two, it works just fine. Any more and it bugs out and says undefined.
// Open a form by ID and log the responses to each question.
var form = FormApp.getActiveForm();
var formResponses = form.getResponses();
for (var i = 0; i < formResponses.length; i++) {
var formResponse = formResponses[i];
var editUrl = String(formResponse.getEditResponseUrl());
var theResponseId = formResponses.indexOf(form);
var itemResponses = formResponse.getItemResponses();
var timestamp = formResponse.getTimestamp();
var firstName = itemResponses[0].getResponse();
var lastName = itemResponses[1].getResponse();
Logger.log(itemResponses); // Log shows there are 6 objects in the array. Matching the amount of Form Questions.
// If I try to use these variables below, it doesn't work and the script 'breaks' at this point.
//var number = itemResponses[2].getResponse();
//var email = itemResponses[3].getResponse();
//var firstName2 = itemResponses[4].getResponse();
//var comments = itemResponses[5].getResponse();
}
Note: I have tried FormApp.openById('id'); to see if maybe getting the active form was a problem. This didn't help.

This is because some answers were submitted to a 2 question form. If you submitted some responses prior to updating the form, the answers to these new questions will be "undefined".

Creating and Emailing Totals Doc from Google Form Responses

I am trying to create a function that takes form response data and applies it to a template to create a 'completion certificate' with their total scores, then emails them a link to it.
On the certificate, their answers are split into four groups, but I am having trouble creating totals for the each of the answer arrays.
Here is my current code:
function autoFillGoogleDocFromForm(e) {
var timestamp = e.values[0];
var firstName = e.values[1];
var lastName = e.values[2];
var emailAddress = e.values[3];
var disbeliefScore = e.values[4,5,6,7,8].reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
var discomfortScore = e.values[9,10,11,12,13].reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
var explorationScore = e.values[14,15,16,17,18].reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
var acceptanceScore = e.values[19,20,21,22,23].reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
var file = DriveApp.getFileById("fileIdGoesHere");
var folder = DriveApp.getFolderById("FolderIdGoesHere")
var copy = file.makeCopy(lastName + ',' + firstName, folder);
var doc = DocumentApp.openById(copy.getId());
var body = doc.getBody();
body.replaceText("{{disbeliefscore}}", disbeliefScore);
body.replaceText("{{discomfortscore}}", discomfortScore);
body.replaceText("{{explorationscore}}", explorationScore);
body.replaceText("{{acceptancescore}}", acceptanceScore);
doc.saveAndClose();
var url = doc.getUrl();
MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress, "Your Leading Change Questionnaire Results Link",{from:"alternative email address to go here", name:"Alternative Name to go here"},url)
}
The code mostly works (replacing text and sending the email), but the replaced text only seems to be the first value of the group, rather than the total.
For example this section:
var disbeliefScore = e.values[4,5,6,7,8].reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
is essentially behaving as:
var disbeliefScore = e.values[4];
and ignores the other values and the 'reduce' script.
As a side note, although the emails are being sent, the subject line of the email is coming out as [object Object].
Any help on either of these issues would be appreciated.
Thanks
Issue:
The syntax Array[index] can be used to access a single element in the array. You cannot select multiple indexes from an array by using:
e.values[4,5,6,7,8]
Solution:
In order to retrieve a chunk of the array, use slice:
e.values.slice(4,9)
Reference:
Array

Vlookup at Google Apps Script with for loop [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Google Script version of VLookup (More Efficient Method?)
(2 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I need your help please. I would like to do a for loop or something else that works like a Formula =Vlookup
I have two Sheets. in Sheet1 (Overview) there are ID's like 1000, 1002, 1003,...,100X in Column A;
Sheet2 is a Form Response Sheet (Response), where you need to enter your ID and an Action with 'Ok' and 'Nok'. The ID I enter appears in Sheet2 Column B and the Action (Ok/Nok) apperas in Sheet2 Column C.
Now I would like to Copy the Ok/Nok to the Row with the same ID in the Overview sheet with a onFormSubmit function.
for Example. Person with ID 1005 makes a form response with the Action 'Ok'. Now should the 'Ok' copied to the Overview sheet in Column B and in the exact row (in this case: row with the ID 1005).
Here is my function. but I don't want to have formulars in the sheet. so I aked for another solution.
function vlookup() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheets()[0];
var cell = sheet.getRange(1,5);
cell.setFormula('=ARRAYFORMULA(IFS(ROW(Response!B:B)=1,"Action from
User",Response!B:B="","",TRUE,IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A:A,Response!B:C,2,0),"Waiting for Response")))');
}
Hope someone can help me.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Thank you for all these answers. I tryed the code from stackoverflow.com/questions/60255775 – TheMaster and that workes fine!
but it seams very complicated for a programming beginner. exspecially the part with the "Hash".
I also added a second compare and copy to get the data from a Reason if the Nok is used in the Form.
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
/**
* #param {GoogleAppsScript.Spreadsheet.Sheet} fromSht -Sheet to import from
* #param {GoogleAppsScript.Spreadsheet.Sheet} toSht -Sheet to import to
* #param {Number} fromCompCol -Column number of fromSht to compare
* #param {Number} toCompCol -Column number of toSht to compare
* #param {Number} fromCol -Column number of fromSht to get result
* #param {Number} toCol -Column number of toSht to get result
*/
function copyToOverview(e,response,
fromSht = ss.getSheetByName('Response'),
toSht = ss.getSheetByName('Overview'),
fromCompCol = 2,
toCompCol = 1,
fromCol = 3,
toCol = 2,
fromColRej = 4,
toColRej = 3
) {
const toShtLr = toSht.getLastRow();
const toCompArr = toSht.getRange(2, toCompCol, toShtLr - 1, 1).getValues();
const fromArr = fromSht.getDataRange().getValues();
fromCompCol--;
fromCol--;
fromColRej--;
/*Create a hash object of fromSheet*/
const obj1 = fromArr.reduce((obj, row) => {
let el = row[fromCompCol];
el in obj ? null : (obj[el] = row[fromCol]);
return obj;
}, {});
/*Create a second hash object of fromSheet to copy the Reason why it is Nok (also from filling out the Form) */
const obj3 = fromArr.reduce((obj2, row) => {
let el1 = row[fromCompCol];
el1 in obj2 ? null : (obj2[el1] = row[fromColRej]);
return obj2;
}, {});
//Paste to column first toSht copy the "ok/nok" second toSht for the Reason why Nok
toSht
.getRange(2, toCol, toShtLr - 1, 1)
.setValues(toCompArr.map(row => (row[0] in obj1 ? [obj1[row[0]]] : [null])));
toSht
.getRange(2, toColRej, toShtLr - 1, 1)
.setValues(toCompArr.map(row => (row[0] in obj3 ? [obj3[row[0]]] : [null])));
}
I also tried the Code from "Michiel the Temp" and it seams, that it also works.
The code from "Mateo Randwolf" looks very simple and I tried it too. Works also very good!
I have modified it a bit and it works like I wish! I think I will use this code.
function onFormSubmit(e) {
// Get the sheet where the form responses are submitted and the one where we want to check the IDs
var formSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Response');
var destinationSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Overview');
// Get the new incoming data (ID and Ok/Nok) with each form submit by accessing
// the trigger object e which is the submited and new form response row
var submittedId = formSheet.getRange(e.range.getRow(), 2).getValue();
var submittedValue = formSheet.getRange(e.range.getRow(), 3).getValue();
var submittedValueReason = formSheet.getRange(e.range.getRow(), 4).getValue();
// get all the ID values we have in the sheet we want to check them. flat will convert all the returning
// 2D array of values in a 1D array with all the IDs
var idRange = destinationSheet.getRange(1, 1, destinationSheet.getLastRow(),1).getValues().flat();
// iterate over all your IDs
for(i=0;i<idRange.length;i++){
// if one ID is the same as the incoming one from the form response
if(idRange[i] == submittedId){
// set its value to the one submitted by the form
destinationSheet.getRange(i+1, 2).setValue(submittedValue);
}
if(idRange[i] == submittedId){
destinationSheet.getRange(i+1, 3).setValue(submittedValueReason);
destinationSheet.getRange(i+1, 2).getValue() == "Nok" ? destinationSheet.getRange(i+1, 4).setValue("Closed") : destinationSheet.getRange(i+1, 4).setValue("Open");
}
}
}
Thank you all for the Help you are amazing!
So I can do my next step in the Project with updating checkboxes in the Form.
I didn't test this with a trigger but this should work
function vlookup() {
var ssOverview = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Overview");
var ssOverviewLr = ssOverview.getLastRow();
var ssOverviewData = ssOverview.getRange(2, 1, ssOverviewLr, 1).getValues(); //assuming you have a header in the first row
var ssResponse = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Response");
var ssResponseLr = ssResponse.getLastRow();
var newResponse = ssResponse.getRange(ssResponseLr, 2, 1, 2).getValues();
var Ids = ssOverviewData.map(function (r){return r[0];});
for(var i = 0; i < newResponse.length; i++)
{
var row = newResponse[i];
var id = row[0];
var action = row[1];
var index = Ids.indexOf(id);
if(index == -1)
{
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().toast("No matches", "Be aware")
}
else
{
ssOverview.getRange(index + 2, 2).setValue(action); //this puts the action in column B
}
}
}
In order to check the IDs every time there is a new form submission and change the data in the ID sheet accordingly you will need to use installable triggers. Specifically you should use a FormSubmit trigger which triggers the function every time there is a form submission. Along with this trigger you will use its event object.
To add an installable trigger, in your Apps Script editor go to Edit -> Current project's triggers and create a new trigger by clicking Add trigger. Make sure that you select On form submit as the event type and that you select the function presented below (so please first copy/paste the function below before creating your trigger).
The following function takes use of this trigger event to compare the incoming data to your Column A of IDs and check for matches and if so it adds the relevant Ok/Nok information. It has self explanatory comments:
function onFormSubmit(e) {
// Get the sheet where the form responses are submitted and the one where we want to check the IDs
var formSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Form Responses 1');
var destinationSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Check');
// Get the new incoming data (ID and Ok/Nok) with each form submit by accessing
// the trigger object e which is the submited and new form response row
var submittedId = formSheet.getRange(e.range.getRow(), 2).getValue();
var submittedValue = formSheet.getRange(e.range.getRow(), 3).getValue();
// get all the ID values we have in the sheet we want to check them. flat will convert all the returning
// 2D array of values in a 1D array with all the IDs
var idRange = destinationSheet.getRange(1, 1, destinationSheet.getLastRow(),1).getValues().flat();
// iterate over all your IDs
for(i=0;i<idRange.length;i++){
// if one ID is the same as the incoming one from the form response
if(idRange[i] == submittedId){
// set its value to the one submitted by the form
destinationSheet.getRange(i+1, 2).setValue(submittedValue);
}
}
}

google apps script: setValues from array, taken from html form onSubmit in google sheets

In Google Sheets, I have a sidebar using html, with a form which runs processForm(this) upon submission. The form was created based on the headings in the sheet, which is why I am using the headings to retrieve the values from the form. The code seems to work fine until I try to use setValues(). There is no error, but nothing seems to happen at that line. Please let me know what I might be doing wrong. Thanks.
function processForm(formObject) {
var headers = getHeaders();
var newRow = [];
for (var i = 0; i < headers.length; i++) {
newRow.push(formObject["" + headers[i]]); // TODO: convert objects to appropriate formats
}
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var range = sheet.getRange(parseInt(formObject.row)+1, 1, 1, headers.length)
Logger.log(JSON.stringify(newRow)); // example output: ["John","Smith","male","6615554109","","example_email#yahoo.com"]
range.setValues(newRow); // values not getting set
}
Change last line:
range.setValues([newRow]);
(thanks for the solution, Serge insas!)

image array and .src - image not changing

I have created an array which is being used to store a series of .gif images and I'm just trying to test everything out by using document.getElementById to change the .src value but when I change it and load the page the image stays the same as it was before.
function setImage()
{
var images = new Array();
images[0] = anemone.gif;
images[1] = ball.gif;
images[2] = crab.gif;
images[3] = fish2.gif;
images[4] = gull.gif;
images[5] = jellyfish.gif;
images[6] = moon.gif;
images[7] = sail.gif;
images[8] = shell.gif;
images[9] = snail.gif;
images[10] = sun.gif;
images[11] = sunnies.gif;
images[12] = whale.gif;
var slots = new Array();
slots[0] = document.getElementById("slot" + 0);
slots[1] = document.getElementById("slot" + 1);
slots[2] = document.getElementById("slot" + 2);
slots[0].src = "snail.gif";
document.getElementById('slot0').src = images[0];
alert(images.length);
}
I can't understand why the image wont change, but I know it has to be something very simple. I've been wasting hours trying to get this one thing to change but nothing works. can anyone please point out the error of my ways?
There are a couple of issues with your code:
Your filenames need to be Strings, so they'll have to be quoted (also you can simplify the Array creation):
var images = ['anemone.gif', 'ball.gif', 'crab.gif', 'fish2.gif', 'gull.gif', 'jellyfish.gif', 'moon.gif', 'sail.gif', 'shell.gif', 'snail.gif', 'sun.gif', 'sunnies.gif', 'whale.gif'];
Also make sure you are getting your slot-elements right, quote all the attributes like:
<img id="slot0" class="slot" src="crab.gif" width="120" height="80">
When you create the slots-Array you can do it like this (no need to concat the ID string):
var slots = [document.getElementById('slot0'), document.getElementById('slot1'), document.getElementById('slot2')];
Finally make sure you call your function when the document has loaded / the DOM is ready. If you don't want to use a framework like jQuery your easiest bet is probably still using window.onload:
window.onload = setImage; //note that the parens are missing as you want to refer to the function instead of executing it

Finding New and Updated Pages in EpiServer

I have a requirement to display lists of newly-created and updated pages in our Episerver intranet - say the last ten of each. I've tried using FindPagesWithCriteria but this returns no results. Here's the code I've tried:
PageDataCollection recentPages;
PropertyCriteriaCollection criteria;
PropertyCriteria upperBound;
PropertyCriteria lowerBound;
criteria = new PropertyCriteriaCollection();
upperBound = new PropertyCriteria();
upperBound.Condition = CompareCondition.LessThan;
upperBound.Type = PropertyDataType.Date;
upperBound.Value = DateTime.Today.ToString();
upperBound.Name = "Created"; // Or Saved for updated pages
criteria.Add(upperBound);
lowerBound = new PropertyCriteria();
lowerBound.Condition = CompareCondition.GreaterThan;
lowerBound.Type = PropertyDataType.Date;
lowerBound.Value = DateTime.Today.AddDays(-7).ToString();
lowerBound.Name = "Created";
criteria.Add(lowerBound);
recentPages = DataFactory.Instance.FindPagesWithCriteria(PageReference.StartPage, criteria);
I've also tried using the RecentlyChangedPagesFinder (as detailed here) - this returns some results, but when I try to use the set of results to build a PageCollection to databind into a PageList, again I get nothing output. And I can't see that I could use that for new pages, only updated ones.
The property name should be "PageCreated".
http://epiwiki.se/developing/properties/all-built-in-properties
You can also improve your FindPagesWithCriteria-syntax by going something like this:
var criterias = new PropertyCriteriaCollection
{
new PropertyCriteria()
{
Name = "SomeProp",
Type = PropertyDataType.PageType,
Value = "eh",
Condition = CompareCondition.Equal,
Required = true
},
new PropertyCriteria()
{
...
};
var pages = DataFactory.Instance.FindPagesWithCriteria(somePageLink, criterias);
