How to copy my google doc

[Ellen Liu]

This my scripts,  I donot know why it doesn't work.

function makeCopy() {

// gets the name of the original file and appends the word "copy" followed by the timestamp stored in formattedDate

var name = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument().getName() + " Copy  of  ";

var destination = DriveApp.getFolderById("1D-665l1dxAvCTZ7lLeLEDtCLdtwy9VH-");

// gets the current Google Sheet file

var file = DriveApp.getFileById(DocumentApp.getActiveDocument().getId())

// makes copy of "file" with "name" at the "destination"

file.makeCopy(name, destination);

}

The line " var file = DriveApp.getFileById(DocumentApp.getActiveDocument().getId())"

gets the ID number of the file not the file it should be

var file = DriveApp.getFileById(DocumentApp.getActiveDocument()

Hope that helps

Solve by change code to this:

file.makeCopy(destination).setName(name);
