Enum DataValidationCriteria

DataValidationCriteria

An enumeration representing the data validation criteria that can be set on a range.

To call an enum, you call its parent class, name, and property. For example, SpreadsheetApp.DataValidationCriteria.DATE_IS_VALID_DATE.

// Change existing data-validation rules that require a date in 2013 to require
// a date in 2014.
const oldDates = [new Date('1/1/2013'), new Date('12/31/2013')];
const newDates = [new Date('1/1/2014'), new Date('12/31/2014')];
const sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
const range = sheet.getRange(1, 1, sheet.getMaxRows(), sheet.getMaxColumns());
const rules = range.getDataValidations();

for (let i = 0; i < rules.length; i++) {
  for (let j = 0; j < rules[i].length; j++) {
    const rule = rules[i][j];

    if (rule != null) {
      const criteria = rule.getCriteriaType();
      const args = rule.getCriteriaValues();

      if (criteria === SpreadsheetApp.DataValidationCriteria.DATE_BETWEEN &&
          args[0].getTime() === oldDates[0].getTime() &&
          args[1].getTime() === oldDates[1].getTime()) {
        // Create a builder from the existing rule, then change the dates.
        rules[i][j] = rule.copy().withCriteria(criteria, newDates).build();
      }
    }
  }
}
range.setDataValidations(rules);
