Export Google Spreadsheet as a JSON using script

Question

I'm using this script to export Google Sheets as a JSON file and it works perfectly fine. However in my sheet im using names like this "qwe_qwe" and when I'm exporting its being formatted to "qweqwe". Is it possible somehow to export file in raw format.

I believe that "var FORMAT_PRETTY = 'Pretty';" makes the difference, however I can't make it work without this variable.

UPD: Found that this function if (!isAlnum_(letter)) checking for Alphanumeric chars, so I've decided to add smthng like this if (!isAlnum_(letter) && !isAlnum_("_")) , however it doesn't work.

Answer 1

Sample Sheet:

Export to JSON (based on original code):

column headers were formatted using normalizeHeader_()

Output:

5:19:32 AM  Notice  Execution started
5:19:34 AM  Info    [
    {
        "columna": "A2",
        "columnb": "B2",
        "columnc": "C2"
    },
    {
        "columna": "A_3",
        "columnb": "B_3",
        "columnc": "C_3"
    }
]
5:19:34 AM  Notice  Execution completed

Export to JSON (raw format column header):

Change var objects = getObjects_(dataRange.getValues(), normalizeHeaders_(headers)); in getRowsData_() to var objects = getObjects_(dataRange.getValues(), headers);

Output:

5:20:04 AM  Notice  Execution started
5:20:06 AM  Info    [
    {
        "Column_A": "A2",
        "Column_B": "B2",
        "Column_C": "C2"
    },
    {
        "Column_A": "A_3",
        "Column_B": "B_3",
        "Column_C": "C_3"
    }
]
5:20:06 AM  Notice  Execution completed

Export to JSON (format column header but include '_')

Use (!isAlnum_(letter) && (letter != '_')) in normalizeHeader_()

Output:

5:28:11 AM  Notice  Execution started
5:28:13 AM  Info    [
    {
        "column_a": "A2",
        "column_b": "B2",
        "column_c": "C2"
    },
    {
        "column_a": "A_3",
        "column_b": "B_3",
        "column_c": "C_3"
    }
]

还有一种解决方案，您可以删除 !isAlnum_(letter) 检查或为其添加下划线。

You can use this script to export google sheets data to json format
