December 13, 2023

Feature

June 06, 2022

Change

You can now call functions in separate files before they're parsed. Previously, the V8 runtime required a script file to be parsed before any other file could call the functions it defines.

Now, the order of files in the Apps Script editor doesn't matter. This means that you can call a function in a different file to assign a value to a global variable—the function is always defined before it's called. This behavior reflects that of the legacy Rhino runtime.

September 01, 2021

Feature

In the HTML Service iframe sandbox, allow-top-navigation, which allows the content to navigate its top-level browsing context, is restricted and not set as an attribute in the sandbox. Instead, the allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation attribute has been added to the sandbox.

If you need to redirect your script, add a link or a button for the user to take action on.

December 11, 2014

Deprecated

This method is consistent with the getUi() methods in DocumentApp and FormApp, but only works in the new version of Google Sheets. The older version of Google Sheets continues to use the existing methods documented in the guides to dialogs and sidebars and menus.

  • Added Forms Service, which allows scripts to create and modify Google Forms.
  • Added Drive Service, which allows scripts to create and modify files and folders in Google Drive. This is a newer version of the existing DocsList Service.

Fixed
  • Fixed an issue with the Contacts service, where a 'Mismatch: etags' error was thrown when a contact was modified more than once.
  • Fixed an issue where a popup dialog with the text "Error encountered: An unexpected error occurred" was displayed when the change handler for a ListBox was called, but no app was returned by the change handler.
  • Fixed an issue where ListBox.addItem wasn't working after calling getElementById.
  • Fixed an issue with Utilities.formatDate, where it was previously always formatting the date into GMT.
