My HTTP POST in javascript isn't running my function in my google apps script
Question
I have been trying for a couple hours now to see if I can send POST DATA to a google apps script web app. I'm attempting to make my data that's sent send me an email. But when i run my code no errors appear. Just nothing happens.
Here is my html, it's just a button to run the function
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<!--Import JQUERY-->
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"</script>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<button type="button" onclick="submitClicked()">submit</button>
</body>
</html>
Here is my javascript meant to send the request
function submitClicked() {
sendData();
}
function sendData() {
console.log("running");
const url = "https://script.google.com/a/macros/limitlessflight.com/s/AKfycbyAhx3wCRR4fS30ZrVpFpe-lxksRjn8ZWTUmTj5YlbmD8wG2PlzzXzDNUUaS8ntu09LBQ/exec";
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("POST", url, true);
xhr.send(JSON.stringify({
value: "hello"
}));
console.log("done");
}
And here is my apps script code to send an email. When i run this code by itself, or entering the page it works correctly. I added the doGet(e) function, just so I could test if a GET request would work instead.
function doPost(e) {
emailForm(e);
}
function doGet(e) {
emailForm(e);
}
function emailForm(data) {
MailApp.sendEmail({
to: "youremailhere@emailhere.com",
subject: "Test Email",
htmlBody: data
});
}

Your Google Apps Script web application is incomplete as the doPost and doGet functions don't return one of the required objects. From Requirements for web apps
- The function returns an HTML service HtmlOutput object or a Content service TextOutput object.
A simple fix is to add return ContentService.createTextOutput('Success;'); to the end of each of these functions:
function doPost(e) {
emailForm(e);
return ContentService.createTextOutput('Success!');
}
function doGet(e) {
emailForm(e);
return ContentService.createTextOutput('Success!');
}
