Google Appscript更新特定表

Question

having a bit of a brain dead moment so have come to StackOverflow for a bit of guidance.

I currently have a script that I use for recording calendar events from a Group Calendar and pulling them into a Google Spreadsheet so I can work some other magic with them.

Currently, it uses:

var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();

And that works perfectly fine, but as I intend on adding more sheets and I only want this one to update / have the data inserted into, I need to change the .getActiveSheet() part. I had tried .getSheetName('name of sheet') , but this returned problems. Can anyone help me out here? I'm sure it's something simple that I've overlooked. But I just can't put my finger on it!

Many thanks~

Answer 1

Massive thanks to Sandy for pointing out the blindingly obvious to me!

To reference a certain sheet within your spreadsheet, use the following:

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById("sheet key")
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Sheet Name');

Answer 2

You can also reference sheets by the sheet index number:

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
// or .openById('key');

var sheet = ss.Sheets()[i];    
// i = index number

var name = sheet.getName();

This is really helpful in some cases if you have dynamically changing sheet names (eg when you insert, duplicate, rename or delete sheets).
