To set a value in a specific cell using Apps Script, you can use the setValue() method of the Range class. Here’s an example code snippet:
function setValueInCell() { var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet(); var range = sheet.getRange('A1'); // Replace 'A1' with the desired cell reference var value = 'Hello, World!'; // Replace with the desired value range.setValue(value); }
In this code, the setValueInCell function first retrieves the active sheet using SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet(). You can modify this line to access a specific sheet if needed.
The getRange() method is then called on the sheet object to define the range of the cell you want to set the value for. In this example, it’s set to 'A1', but you can change it to any desired cell reference, such as 'B5' or 'C10'.
Next, you specify the value you want to set in the cell by assigning it to the value variable. In this example, the value is set to 'Hello, World!', but you can change it to any value you require.
Finally, the setValue() method is used on the range object to set the specified value in the desired cell.
You can call the setValueInCell function from another function or set up a trigger to execute it based on your needs. When executed, it will set the specified value in the designated cell of the active sheet in the Google Sheet.
Feel free to modify the code to suit your specific requirements and work with different ranges and values.
