从单元格自动重命名 Google Sheets 文件

Question

I'm a complete novice to script, so please forgive my ignorance.

I'm trying to run a script so that when a new sheet is made of a specific set of sheets I use for my clients, that new copy renames itself upon the input of a specific cell (C13) where my clients will enter their name.

I should add I was using the following code that i grabbed from a similar question on here:

function onOpen() { 
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet(); 
  var C13 = ss.getRange("C13").getValue(); 
  var name = C13; 
  SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().renameActiveSheet("name"); 
}

But this only worked for when the sheet opened, and obviously with nothing in C13 this isn't useful

Thank you

If you wish that the sheet gets renamed when a specific range gets edited than you can use onEdit() trigger.

The code below will replace the sheet's name with C13 cell's value if you change it.

function onEdit(e) { 
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet(); 
  var name = ss.getRange("C13").getValue(); 
  
  if(e.range.getA1Notation() == 'C13' && name!= '') {
    SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().renameActiveSheet(name);
  }
}
