应用程序脚本 - 删除谷歌文档中的特定表

Question

I'm trying to make app script to create a google doc filled in function of some given answer, given in a spreadsheet. I've some problem to remove a specific table that is present in a google doc template that must to be copied and filled as told.

function myFunction() {
  var ModuloRaccoltaDati = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("MRD");
  var ColonnaDaCopiare = ModuloRaccoltaDati.getLastColumn(); 
  var NumErog = ModuloRaccoltaDati.getRange(15,ColonnaDaCopiare).getValue();
  var file = DriveApp.getFileById('1ubPramWI890GDkcEdIoQqGxuXR0kBo6O-nOn1_gtlII'); 
  var folder = DriveApp.getFolderById('1ce-bya5gwwn4TQdu7hDIVmjqDajTyYhg');
  var copy = file.makeCopy(NumeroDiImpianto, folder); 
  var doc = DocumentApp.openById(copy.getId()); 
  var body = doc.getBody();
  if (NumErog == 1) {
    var tableErog2 = body.getTables()[1];
    tableErog2.deletetable();
  }
}

All this creates the new doc...but doesn't work about the table removing.

Answer 1

The script is not deleting the table because you are using a non-existing method to do that ( deletetable() ).

To remove a Table from a Document using Apps Script, I can see two easy options:

• From the child: use table.removeFromParent() , which will remove the table from its parent.
• From the parent: use removeChild(child) method from the parent element.

So you should be able to get this done by changing this line:

tableErog2.deletetable();

To this one:

tableErog2.removeFromParent();

Or alternatively, to this one:

body.removeChild(tableErog2);

I hope this is of any help.
