I been using app scripts to try and learn to code. I am super familiar with spreadsheet and their built in functionality but I am pushing myself to learn to code for more advanced customization. I want to learn how to work with API’s and wow this was such an amazing tutorial. Absolutely perfect. Cant wait to check out more of your content.
It's astonishing how much I've learned from you - I even my daughters are learning to code the correct way from your channel. God has blessed you with the amazing ability to take complicated development topics and explain them with the clarity of a first grade teacher.

Hey, Chanel - Thanks for the interesting post. I visit here, every 10 to 14 days, looking for a new training. Today, it is a skill I don't even need ... today ... but I have written notes and a searchable entry in my training log. Thanks!
Thx very much for this...even im not using it for google based app but now i know how to use api on my website. Hopefully ur succes on your journey saperis
Was really helpful! Thanks a lot for this demo, inspired me to write automation scripts to export sheets processed data to CSV and other formats for external systems 🙌
I am able to redirect URI which has auth_code (within URL) and this url showing specific error, How can I get the auth_code in HTML page or can get specific sheet cell ?
Thanks for the case. For some reason, the picture quality is not very good, although the resolution in the application is set to maximum when viewing. If the zoom in the browser when recording was larger, it could help, but.... but now you have to look closely.
Hi Chanel, thanks a lot for this tutorial, it's great. I've implemented others elements about response... I'd like to try to make a forecast request, it's simple but i don't know how manage the response for others days... Can you help me please
Hi Chanel, Thanks a lot!! You are doing great work and sharing your valuable knowledge with us.. I am trying to access the api through the app script code but received DNS error. Could you please help me out or suggest
Yes, you could do that. Have a look at how to create a webhook, which probably would be the best of doing what you want to achieve: developers.google.com/chat/how-tos/webhooks
Love your explanation. but if i may suggest or you can say it's a request. since we have this 2 giants tech industries competing each others. i mean, microsoft now have microsoft graph and google have google app script. could you considering to make a video how to connect to Azure AD or MS Graph from GAS? Thank you.
I don't know. Does Sharepoint have an API you can use? When you wan to use an API, you always have to A) check if the creator of the system provides an API and B) check their documentation on how to use the API.
Hi, how do I replace the url when using OpenWeather or Visual Crossing? Am a beginner and have entered all this code, but Weather API is not free anymore. Not sure what code http code I need to enter? Thanks
That depends on the API. Usually, you will find information on how to access an API that requires payment or something else, on the API's provider website.
Hi saperis I want to auto populate some field in Google form and i am using Google sheet as backend is that possible?all my data i have to populate is in Google sheet I hope you reply soon
var was the original way to create variables. A couple of years ago let was added and can be considered somewhat superior to var. If you want the full details check this video: ruclips.net/video/q6V5Yeni9dI/видео.html

@@saperis Yes, the icon is a part of the data but not showing. Here's what the code is , should be same as yours: let icon = data.current.condition.icon; let targetRange = sheet.getRange('A4:C4'); targetRange.setValues(weather); let iconRange = sheet.getRange('D4'); iconRange.setFormula('=IMAGE("${icon}")');
@@SuitOfHearts I had similar problem. My solution: 1. correct the line: let icon = 'https:'+data.current.condition.icon; 2. note the characters ' '. You have to use ` ` instead in the line: iconRange.setFormula(`=IMAGE("${icon}")`);
Very good video helped a lot. I would like to save an image as well, I saw that google drawings allows saving, publishing and getting an html code that can be used in HTML projects. Could you help me create a script that also saves images? Thanks

Hi All, Currently I have the same issue when I ran the code to call an API, it show an issue, I made the same changes in my code but it was unsuccessful. The problem occurs on APPSCRIPT but when I ran the code on POSTMAN or SWAGGER it works well.
From the API provider. Let's say you want to use a specific weather API. You have to check on the website of the API provider how you can get the necessary key.
Well, it depends. If they have to use or run the script, you can't "hide" it from them. If they absolutely shouldn't have access to the script, you should consider publishing the add-on or app to the Google Workspace Marketplace.

Hi, in your example you know your headers in advance. Can you pull data and create two dimensions without specifying the header names?
Do you mean the column headers? In my tutorial I don't refer to any column headers.
Excellent tutorial. A one-click code download link would be nice, too!

You always have to use the URL that the API provider gives you. Usually this should be in the API documentation.
Great Video! Quick Question: What if the API has restricted access? Is there a way to sign into the service?
That depends on the API. Usually, you will find information on how to access an API that requires payment or something else, on the API's provider website.

No, a user with permission rights can copy a file or a script. There is no way of you disabling that.

I try to create videos for topics that are often searched for on RUclips. So I generally can't promise to make videos for specific requests.
Hi All,
Currently I have the same issue when I ran the code to call an API, it show an issue, I made the same changes in my code but it was unsuccessful.
The problem occurs on APPSCRIPT but when I ran the code on POSTMAN or SWAGGER it works well.
Do a Google search with the error message you receive. That's what I do whenever I have code that doesn't work.
Any chance you can share your script?! Saves me typing it all out again 😉
Nope, we don't share any scripts. The typing is part of the fun of creating an automation script. 😀
Ma'am, How do I get the API key?
From the API provider. Let's say you want to use a specific weather API. You have to check on the website of the API provider how you can get the necessary key.
hello
how to hide a script in google app script for users, how a service provider to client
Well, it depends. If they have to use or run the script, you can't "hide" it from them. If they absolutely shouldn't have access to the script, you should consider publishing the add-on or app to the Google Workspace Marketplace.
Would creating a library meet my needs?
