To create a new folder in Google Drive using Apps Script, you can use the createFolder() method of the DriveApp class. Here’s an example code snippet:
function createNewFolder() { var folderName = 'New Folder'; // Replace with the desired name for the new folder var folder = DriveApp.createFolder(folderName); Logger.log('New folder created with ID: ' + folder.getId()); }
In this code, the createNewFolder function creates a new folder in Google Drive. The desired name for the new folder is specified by assigning it to the folderName variable. In this example, it’s set to 'New Folder', but you can change it to any desired name.
The createFolder() method is then called on the DriveApp object, and the folderName is passed as an argument. This method creates a new folder in the root directory of Google Drive.
The createFolder() method returns a Folder object representing the newly created folder. In this example, it’s assigned to the folder variable.
To demonstrate the creation of the folder, the getId() method is called on the folder object to retrieve the unique ID of the newly created folder. This ID is then logged using Logger.log().
You can call the createNewFolder function from another function or set up a trigger to execute it based on your needs. When executed, it will create a new folder in Google Drive with the specified name and log its ID.
Feel free to modify the code to suit your specific requirements, such as creating the folder in a specific directory or performing additional operations on the folder.
