Enum ProtectionType

ProtectionType

An enumeration representing the parts of a spreadsheet that can be protected from edits.

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

// Remove all range protections in the spreadsheet that the user has permission
// to edit.
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
const protections = ss.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.RANGE);
for (const protection of protections) {
  if (protection.canEdit()) {
    protection.remove();
  }
}

// Removes sheet protection from the active sheet, if the user has permission to
// edit it.
const sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
const protection = sheet.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.SHEET)[0];
if (protection?.canEdit()) {
  protection.remove();
}
