Hey,

I'm trying to run script which can autofill column whenever sheet gets new entry in sheet. able to run basic formulas with the same script but getting error when i'm using importrange with it. Please suggest




function myfunction() {
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet();

  var lr = ss.getLastRow();
  var fillDownRange = ss.getRange(3,3,lr-1);
  ss.getRange ("C3").copyTo(fillDownRange);
}


Thankyou

I didn't notice the screenshots initially, my bad. It's the quotation marks. When dealing with nested quotations marks, you need to either escape the inner quotation marks, or use different quotation marks outside of the inner quotation marks. Change the double quotation marks in the setFormula function to single quotation marks on the outside.
