CURRENTLY
I have a Google Sheets App Script 'web app'
Script in Goolge Sheets
function doPost(e) {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
sheet.getRange("A1").setValue("Hello!")
return "Success!"
}
Google Apps Script Web App Config:
Execute as: Me // or as User. I've tried both.
Who has access: Anyone within MyOrganisation
I want to make a POST request to the above Web App from AWS Lambda.
AWS Lambda.js:
const { GoogleSpreadsheet } = require("google-spreadsheet");
const doc = new GoogleSpreadsheet(
{spreadsheetId}
);
await doc.useServiceAccountAuth({
client_email: process.env.GOOGLE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL,
private_key: process.env.GOOGLE_PRIVATE_KEY.replace(/\\n/g, "\n"),
});
let token = doc["jwtClient"]["credentials"]["access_token"];
await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const options = {
host: 'script.google.com',
path: "/macros/s/{myscriptid}/exec", //<-- my web app path!
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': "Bearer "+ token
}
};
//create the request object with the callback with the result
const req = HTTPS.request(options, (res) => {
resolve(JSON.stringify(res.statusCode));
});
// handle the possible errors
req.on('error', (e) => {
reject(e.message);
});
//do the request
req.write(JSON.stringify(data));
//finish the request
req.end();
});
console.log("response:"+JSON.stringify(response))

ISSUE
Current response:
response:"401"
MyOrganisation
, I struggle to find a way to authenticate my POST request.HELP!
How do I set up a POST request to my Google Sheets web app such that it can be protected by authentication? Right now, I'd be happy to find ANY means to authenticate this request (not necessarily a service account) that doesn't leave it completed open to public.
Should I use this hack?
One idea I had was to put a "secret" into my lambda function, and then make the web app public. The web app would check the secret, if if matched, would execute the function.
In order to access Web Apps using the access token with a script, the scopes of Drive API are required to be included. Those are https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly
, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive
, and so on. Ref
When I saw your showing script, it seems that the access token is retrieved using google-spreadsheet
. When I saw the script of google-spreadsheet
, it seems that this uses only the scope of https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets
. Ref
From this situation, I thought that the reason for your current issue might be due to this. If my understanding is correct, how about the following modification? In this modification, the access token is retrieved by googleapis for Node.js from the service account. Ref
function doPost(e) {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
sheet.getRange("A1").setValue("Hello!")
return ContentService.createTextOutput("Success!"); // Modified
}
const { google } = require("googleapis");
const HTTPS = require("https");
const auth = new google.auth.JWT(
"###", // Please set client_email here.
null,
"###", // Please set private_key here. When you set private_key of service account, please include \n.
["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly"],
null
);
function req(token) {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const data = { key1: "value1" }; // Please set your value.
const options = {
host: "script.google.com",
path: "/macros/s/{myscriptid}/exec", //<-- my web app path!
method: "POST",
headers: {Authorization: "Bearer " + token},
};
const req = HTTPS.request(options, (res) => {
if (res.statusCode == 302) {
HTTPS.get(res.headers.location, (res) => {
if (res.statusCode == 200) {
res.setEncoding("utf8");
res.on("data", (r) => resolve(r));
}
});
} else {
res.setEncoding("utf8");
res.on("data", (r) => resolve(r));
}
});
req.on("error", (e) => reject(e.message));
req.write(JSON.stringify(data));
req.end();
});
}
auth.getAccessToken().then(({ token }) => {
req(token).then((e) => console.log(e)).catch((e) => console.log(e));
});
Success!
is returned.If this modified script was not useful for your Web Apps setting, please test as follows.
When you set private_key
of service account, please include \n
