Apps Script

## What is Apps Script?

Apps Script is a cloud-based platform for automating Google products and integrating them with third-party or custom-built services. Developers may use scripts to extend the functionality of existing Google software. Common usage scenarios are the addition of custom menu items to products like Docs or Sheets or the incorporation of clickable images or icons. These items may link to JavaScript-defined actions, which can automate existing functionality or extend it in new ways. Example functions include the use of custom numerical procedures or conditional logic in Sheets to automate complex or repetitive tasks. Functions from other Google services can be integrated, such as adding on translations in Google Workspace or triggering email notifications on specific actions. Apps Script may be used to develop Chat Bot templates for streamlined interaction with API functions. The platform can also be used to pull data from, or push to, third-party services.

I specifically utilize Apps Script in conjunction with Google Sheets to automatically create google docs and pdfs of commonly used forms, like staff information forms, preference forms, customer data sheets, invoices, etc. I am not a coder and do not know any coding languages, but I was able to set up a number of scripts with the helpful and plentiful guides online. Pretty simple to use, even for those who are not coders.

Pros

\-Widely utilized, so it is easy to find helpful guidance videos, even if you are not well-versed in coding -Able to automate tasks that were previously tedious -With a click of a button, have important documents made for me -Can easily add fields and customize for more in-depth use -Can even automatically send emails with attachments -Free to use and very integrated with other google applications, very easy to implement

Cons

\-This does involve coding, so for those who are more technically challenged, this may be too much of an ask

Google Sheets in tangent with Apps Script was a much more effective combination

I have built a Google Sheets add-on using Apps Script that users can install and set up rules for when they want to be notified when certain conditions are met in their spreadsheet, for example to get an email when a new row is added.

Pros

\- If you're familiar with coding it is very easy to get something up and running- Pretty well documented

Cons

\- There are several long standing bugs and missing features that aren't being addressed, particularly for apps that you deploy to their marketplace- The support is pretty poor and very tedious to deal with
