GAS - Test environment ONLY - Sorry, unable to open the file at present

[Radek Šimčík]

Hi

I created a question on StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70058969/gas-test-environment-only-sorry-unable-to-open-the-file-at-present because I am not able to access /dev environment of my Google script project.

A summary of the issue is

• The issues is that I am not able to access /dev of a project.
• It used to work for months.
• To my knowledge there was no change to the project - maybe Google changed something?
• the project's container is a spreadsheet
• I am not the owner of the spreadsheet. I am able to edit and share the spreadsheet
• The owner holds @gmail.com type of account
• My role in the script setting is an editor
• I am able to create new deployments. New and existing deployements can be access by their URLs. But /dev
• I am NOT logged into multiple accounts + tested on latest of 5 major browsers
• When I make a copy of the script I get the same result as above
• When accessing the script and /dev from the incognito mode I get the same results
• The above applies to my google.com and my legacy free GSuite account
• When I make a copz of the original spreadsheet I am able to access /dev

More info is the in link provided.

The SO question was closed. I do not understand why.

Is here someone who could help me? This is a commercial project so I cannot fiddle around much.

Thank you

Radek

There were changes when deployments moved to the new editor, /dev URL may have changed with the move. Could the owner give you the latest /dev?

but I am getting the /dev URL from Google editor ...

I will try to get the /dev URL from the script owner. Not sure if she is technically capable to do so. Let us test my explanation capabilities....

The /dev URL is the same for the owner and the owner of the script gets the same error message

You might want to get rights to edit the spreadsheet that the script is bound to as well.

There have been instances where I've just had to take a new copy of the script and re-create the /dev to get it to work :(

how do you "recreate" /dev link?

The specifics depend on which editor you are using.

Make a new copy of the script, create a new version,  publish the web app to get the link to the /dev version of the web app that uses the latest code.

I do not want to create new script. Current script runs production environment and I do not want to cause any disruption. Only if necessary and there is no other option. Right now I am still investigating
