Good evening team, I'm new to this Apps Script and have been searching for examples of a CRUD Form to enter the data to a good sheet without success, but if I could be pointed in the right direction I'll try and assist myself as I don't really want someone to create it for me although I'd very much appreciate it and edit where I can like column names etc etc. 

Task: The idea is to have my team of over 70 persons enter data via the Form that send to a Google Sheet, then they can search a name and return entries from others and even themselves but don't have the option to delete or update, editing would solely be another 3-member team to edit the information on the sheet itself.

Respect and Thanks, keep up the good work y'all
Radcliffe

Depending on your budget(some features are paid depending on your GSuite version)  and time to learn it - I have found that AppSheet is an awesome way to limit users access to spreadsheets to only enter information or view information on a sheet.

I hadn’t but looks like a lot of work (read working in html) which AppSheet does for you in the background.

Thanks for the responses, will look at the recommendations suggested but as you said pocket is very limited so I just wanted to start this by proving it can be done and then hopefully the organization will take it from there and invest into either further development or migrate the information to a database which can give specifically formatted reports.

Keep the suggestions coming, please and thanks.
Radcliffe.

If all you want is for members to search and view the information you might think about using Google Looker Studio( formerly Google Data Studio). I've managed to create lookup forms there and share them. Here is an example of a Phone App to lookup passenger waivers. Looker Studio is free and not too complicated.

Is it used to make entries also, just enquiring if it is multifunctional?

Just a report not a crud.

Hi
I used app-script and the CardSerivce with Spreadsheets for storing data.

It works pretty well. You wouldn't want to rely on it in a transactional way. 

Resources

Getting it deployed (beyond testing) can be a bit opaque. I can help with that if you get that far.

It help to a limit for data entry however I need persons to be able to search for the last entry in that name (multiple entries are made for the same person weekly or monthly), get the results, edit the last result and add it as a new record to google sheet instead of updating it and overwrite the last entry. Thanks for your interest in helping me...

Thanks for your suggestions, it'll definitely take me some time as a newbie to get the full understanding of it all....

Hello... sorry about my english but i have two questions about scriptlock to avoid collision...

I have 10 sheets in 1 spreadsheet and several users, so i need to lock when a user will use the code with the same sheet... im thinking in use one array with sheet name when get script lock and slice that value with release lock,this way i can use a conditional before lock just to lock that sheet found in array.

This is the question, using a conditional to check if i need to lock will be faster then lock code for all sheets? 

I need to make operations with numbers and get these results in these sheets so i need to lock the code to avoid collisions and get a correct values.

Someone have used cNamedLock and can tell me if this library its better than scriptlock?

Thanks.
