I am trying to use the following code to convert the current sheet in my spreadsheet to a pdf and send it via email:
function sendEmailPDF(pdfName, email, title, body) {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var sheetId = sheet.getSheetId();
var url_base = ss.getUrl().replace(/edit$/,'');
var url_ext = 'exportFormat=pdf' //export as pdf
+ '&format=pdf' //export as pdf
+ '&size=letter' // paper size
+ '&portrait=true' // orientation, false for landscape
+ '&fitw=true' // fit to width, false for actual size
+ '&sheetnames=false' //hide optional headers and footers
+ '&printtitle=false' //hide optional headers and footers
+ '&pagenumbers=false' //hide page numbers
+ '&gridlines=false' // hide gridlines
+ '&fzr=false' // do not repeat row headers (frozen rows) on each page
+ '&gid=' //the sheet's Id
var token = ScriptApp.getOAuthToken();
var params = {
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token,
},
'muteHttpExceptions' : true
};
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url_base + url_ext + sheetId, params)
var blob = response.getBlob().setName(pdfName + ".pdf");
var mailOptions = {attachments:blob, htmlBody:body};
if (MailApp.getRemainingDailyQuota() > 0){
MailApp.sendEmail(
email,
title,
"html content only",
mailOptions
);
}
}
Now the code executes without errors, and I receive an email with the pdf attached, but I can't open it because I get an error saying that it's corrupted and can't be opened.
When I remove the following code at line 24:
'muteHttpExceptions' : true
The code fails to execute, and I get the following error in my log:
Request failed for https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/146PS13Dz2HOzljUsH-umTU1FUIlcL1UCFqANAqNRUP0/exportFormat=pdf&format=pdf&size=letter&portrait=true&fitw=true&sheetnames=false&printtitle=false&pagenumbers=false&gridlines=false&fzr=false&gid=133193667 returned code 404.

(use muteHttpExceptions option to examine full response) at sendEmailPDF(sendEmailPDF:27) at submitNewProject(submitNewProject:264) at userOnEdit(On Edit:68) at userOnEdit(Code:2)
I have searched high and low and looked at different code samples of how to use Apps Script to send a pdf via email, but none of them seem to be working for me.
Any help is appreciated!
I think that there are 2 modification points in your script.
1. Query parameter
Please try to insert ? as follows.
From :
var url_base = ss.getUrl().replace(/edit$/,'');
To :
var url_base = ss.getUrl().replace(/edit$/,'') + "export?";
2. Advanced parameters of MailApp.sendMail()
attachments BlobSource[] an array of files to send with the email (see example)
The blob is an array. So please modify as follows.
From :
var mailOptions = {attachments:blob, htmlBody:body};
To :
var mailOptions = {attachments: [blob], htmlBody:body};
I think that when the blob is only one, attachments:blob works. If you want to send several blobs, please use an array.
Reference :
sendEmail(recipient, subject, body, options)
If this still didn't work, please tell me. I would like to modify it.
Answering to KingOfTheNerds...
I've had a similar issue that one day my code stopped working. The solution above didn't solve my problem.
But I've found out, that the problem was in the line code:
var url_base = spreadsheet.getUrl().replace(/edit$/,'');
because my spreadsheet link was not ended with the word "edit".
My solution is to change mentioned line to:
var url_base = spreadsheet.getUrl().replace(/edit.+/,'');
I hope it will help somebody :)

Basically, we want the email to send automatically when D2 is edited.
var rangeEdit =e.range.getA1Notation();
From what I see here it looks like you are trying to send an Email when the cell is changed, probably by using onEdit trigger.
You can't do that.
OnEdit belongs to simple triggers. Simple triggers can't call services that require authorization. Check here https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/triggers the Restrictions section.
If I'm wrong with what are you trying to do, please edit your post with the code, since "Carlos M" wrote in his reply that it can't compile.
Your code does not have enough closing brackets to terminate the function checkValue, thus it returns a syntax error.
Since your intent is to check the value first before sending the email, it is better if you separate the email function and call it from checkValue instead of enclosing it in an if statement. The parameter is not needed as well.
Also since you indicated that you need to send an email, you need an installable trigger. Create a trigger using the script service by running createSpreadsheetEditTrigger(), which will then run checkValue().
function createSpreadsheetEditTrigger() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
ScriptApp.newTrigger('checkValue')
.forSpreadsheet(ss)
.onEdit()
.create();
}
function checkValue(e) {
var rangeEdit = e.range.getA1Notation();
if(rangeEdit == "D2") {
email();
}
}
function email() {
// Send the PDF of the spreadsheet to this email address

Installable Triggers | Apps Script
I'm new to Google Apps script and am trying to add an image inline to an automated response email.
The auto reply works perfectly, the main text of the email formats well in plain text and html.
the problem i'm facing is that the image does not appear.
my code:
// This constant is written in column Y for rows for which an email
// has been sent successfully.
var EMAIL_SENT = 'EMAIL_SENT';
/**
* Sends non-duplicate emails with data from the current spreadsheet.
*/
function sendEmails2() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSheet(sheet.getSheetByName('Data'))
var startRow = 2; // First row of data to process
// Fetch the range
var dataRange = sheet.getRange("L2:L1000")
var dataRange2 = sheet.getRange("K2:K1000")
var dataRange3 = sheet.getRange("O2:O1000")
var dataRange4 = sheet.getRange("Y2:Y1000")
var dataRange5 = sheet.getRange("B2:B1000")
// Fetch values for each row in the Range.
var data = dataRange.getValues();
var data2 = dataRange2.getValues();
var data3 = dataRange3.getValues();
var data4 = dataRange4.getValues();
var data5 = dataRange5.getValues();
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; ++i) {
var yesno = data2[i]
if(yesno == "Yes"){
var TFlogoUrl = "https://drive.google.com/openid=1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287";
var TFlogoBlob = UrlFetchApp
.fetch(TFlogoUrl)
.getBlob()
.setName("TFlogoBlob");
var emailAddress = data[i];
var ShipID = data3[i];
var cmdrID = data5[i];
var TFmsg = "Hi " + cmdrID + ",/n /nThank you for signing up to The Fatherhoods Lost Souls Expedition./n /nYour unique Ship ID is: " + ShipID + "/n /nWe look forward to seeing you on the expedition CMDR!/n /nFly Safe,/nThe Lost Souls Expedition team.";
var htmlTFmsg = "Hi " + cmdrID + ",<br> <br>Thank you for signing up to The Fatherhoods Lost Souls Expedition.<br> <br>Your unique Ship ID is: " + ShipID + "<br> <br>We look forward to seeing you on the expedition CMDR!<br> <br>Fly Safe,<br>The Lost Souls Expedition team.<br><img src='cid:TFlogo'>";
emailSent = data4[i]; // email sent (column Y)
if (emailSent != EMAIL_SENT) { // Prevents sending duplicates
var subject = "Lost Souls Expedition Sign up confirmation";
MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress,subject,TFmsg,{
htmlBody: htmlTFmsg,
inlineImage:
{

}
});
sheet.getRange("Y" + (startRow + i)).setValue(EMAIL_SENT);
// Make sure the cell is updated right away in case the script is interrupted
SpreadsheetApp.flush();
}
}
}
}
How about this modification?
Modification points:
You cannot retrieve the file blob from this URL var TFlogoUrl = "https://drive.google.com/openid=1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287";. If you want to retrieve the file blob from URL, please use var TFlogoUrl = "http://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287";. 1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287 is the file ID.
As an another method, from the file ID, it is found that the values of getSharingAccess() and getSharingPermission() are ANYONE_WITH_LINK and VIEW, respectively. So you can also retrieve the blob using var TFlogoBlob = DriveApp.getFileById("1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287").getBlob().setName("TFlogoBlob");. I recommend this.
When you want to use the inline image to email, please modify from inlineImage to inlineImages.
The script which reflected above points is as follows.
Modified script:
Please modify your script as follows.
From:
var TFlogoUrl = "https://drive.google.com/openid=1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287";
var TFlogoBlob = UrlFetchApp.fetch(TFlogoUrl).getBlob().setName("TFlogoBlob");
To:
var id = "1nzmvP_zzOms1HiBoFCsVLFjDM6ZzM287";
var TFlogoBlob = DriveApp.getFileById(id).getBlob().setName("TFlogoBlob");
And
From:
inlineImage: {TFlogo:TFlogoBlob}
To:
inlineImages: {TFlogo:TFlogoBlob}

sendEmail(recipient, subject, body, options)
If I misunderstand your question, please tell me. I would like to modify it.
I have to edit a Google Spreadsheet file daily. When I'm finished, I would like to send a message to people, notifying them that I'm done. Attached to that notification mail, I want to send them one specific sheet (called Report), as a PDF.
I found this option which sends email (and is working fine):
function sendEmails() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var startRow = 2; // First row of data to process
var numRows = 2; // Number of rows to process
// Fetch the range of cells A2:B3
var dataRange = sheet.getRange(startRow, 1, numRows, 2)
// Fetch values for each row in the Range.
var data = dataRange.getValues();
for (i in data) {
var row = data[i];
var emailAddress = row[0]; // First column
var message = row[1]; // Second column
var subject = "Sending emails from a Spreadsheet";
MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress, subject, message);
}
}
Is there a way to add the specific sheet as a PDF?
A secondary question: How can I create some sort of button in the spreadsheet ("Send now"), to let me easily send this email, and so I don't have to open the script editor every time?
Menu-driven on-demand operation
Within the Google Sheets user interface, a menu item would be a natural way to set this up to be run on-demand.1 A good resource for learning how to do this yourself is Google's Quickstart: Macros, Menus, and Custom Functions.
From that tutorial, here's the code that would add a "Send Report" menu item to your spreadsheet, which would call a sendReport_() function when selected:
/**
* A special function that runs when the spreadsheet is open, used to add a
* custom menu to the spreadsheet.
*/
function onOpen() {
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var menuItems = [
{name: 'Send Report', functionName: 'sendReport_'}
];
spreadsheet.addMenu('Custom', menuItems);
}
sendReport_() function
Let's assume we have a getPdfBlob() function, that will return a blob suitable for attaching to an email. With that taken care of, here is all sendReport_() needs to do:
// From https://stackoverflow.com/a/37149036/1677912
function sendReport_() {
// Configuration parameters; customize as you wish
var sheetName = "Report";
var subject = "Email subject line";
var recipients = "user1#example.com, user2#example.com";
var htmlMessage = "Greetings,<br/><br/>"
+ "Please find today's report attached as a PDF.<br/><br/>"
+ "Cheers,<br/><br/>Paranoia";
// Get the IDs of the spreadsheet & sheet-of-interest
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sheetId = ss.getSheetByName(sheetName).getSheetId();
// Retrieve the PDF blob
var pdfBlobArray = getPdfBlobs(ss.getId(),sheetId);
// Send the email + attachment
MailApp.sendEmail(recipients,subject,"Report attached.", {
htmlBody: htmlMessage,
attachments: pdfBlobArray
});
}
getPdfBlobs() utility function
A utility to generate a PDF of a spreadsheet appears in Convert all sheets to PDF with Google Apps Script.
That can be adapted to return a blob containing the PDF of the single sheet you're after.
You must enable the Advanced Drive Service through "Resources > Advanced Drive Services...", and the developer console. (See this for more info.)
Note: There is some grotty customization of the PDF output supported by editing URL parameters that are embedded inside this function.

1This could be further extended to be an add-on, so that the script would not need to be attached to a specific spreadsheet.
So I'm working on a project in Google Sheets, using scripting, that will eventually do the following;
Firstly, based on a name in a Cell , find the last 9 entries for that person in form responses.
It then arranges that data in a way that I need and writes it to a sheet, within my spreadsheet
The last part of the script (not my own work, but something i found here)
Script I found online
I've tried to adapt for my needs, not quite there yet. Creates a PDF, saves it in google drive then emails it.
This part requires a bit more work, as I want to specify what the PDF is called using the name and date. Also I'd like to specify where it's saved in google. Lastly the script only produces one PDF. Would like to eventually duplicate the script so I can either create 1 PDF or create them in batches. Will possibly post about these later, if I get stuck.
So anyways that is the overview.
Currently the script works and can query the data I want, write it to a sheet, save it to drive as PDF and email it to a single hard-coded email address. Awesomeness.
But I then tried to add a function called clearRanges which would clear out the template sheet before writing data. I used name ranges to define the 3 sections to clear. But since introducing it, and i've tried it in various parts of my script. I'm getting blank PDF's in my drive and by email.
It's like it's not waiting for the PDF to be created or email to be sent before clearing data. I've tried to put it at the start of my script too, but same thing. Got no idea why.
I was playing around with lock and waitlock as a possible solution, but it didn't seem to help.
If anyone can help out, I'd appreciate it.

ss.getRangeByName('Header').clearContent();
ss.getRangeByName('Scores').clearContent();
ss.getRangeByName('Comments').clearContent();
}
Can you try adding SpreadsheetApp.flush();
around line 60 before calling emailSpreadsheetAsPDF();
SpreadsheetApp.flush()
commentRange.setValues(commentsData);
SpreadsheetApp.flush();
emailSpreadsheetAsPDF();
I've faced a similar problem before and this worked.
I need a script to be able to create the form response spreadsheet of a Google Form and name that Spreadsheet the same as the Form + (Responses) at the end of the name. I have no idea how to do this. I am guessing it has to do with the script below, but the script does not understand that "Title" is the same as a "Name". (I do not know how to append the "(Responses)" part at the end either.) Any help would be appreciated.
function myFunction() {
var form = FormApp.openById('FORM ID HERE').getTitle();
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.create(form);
form.setDestination(FormApp.DestinationType.SPREADSHEET, ss.getId());
}
I found the answer and also how to apply it to many forms in a folder. The answer is below.
function myFunction() {
var files = DriveApp.getFolderById("0B6Eeub3cEBoobnpxWXdjSWxJRm8").getFiles()
while (files.hasNext()) {
var file = files.next();
var form = FormApp.openById(file.getId());
var formName = DriveApp.getFileById(file.getId()).getName();
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.create(formName + ' (Responses)');
form.setDestination(FormApp.DestinationType.SPREADSHEET, ss.getId());
}
}
