Hi,


I have a very simple script creating a modal html window with one button.

If I click on the button, I would show an alert to close the modal window.


he is my project : 


https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gAA3T70yiL-Bg0YZpyzWtzd-18UXrSscFT6_Cy3F7qQ/edit?pli=1#gid=0


I have several Google account.

  • If I am chrome synchronized with ACCOUNT_1 and spreadsheets also connected with ACCOUNT_1
    • My script is functioning and I can see the alert box
  • If I am chrome synchronized with ACCOUNT_1 and spreadsheets connected with ACCOUNT_2
    • My script is NOT functioning. I mean the modal window is displayed but when I click on the test button, the modal window is still here and the alert box does not appear.


Why ?


Regards,

Sébastien

Each account needs to authorize the script for it to run. All accounts need to have at least edit sharing status on the spreadsheet to allow that to work.

I have been struggling with this for months. But literally today got it all sorted out. There's not enough good documentation on this.

Sorry if I destroyed your script - but at ;least you have a working version now.

The essence: - you cannot CLOSE before the call function is done. And the close only happens with google.script.host.close() which you want to call with the SuccessHandler - AFTER your script function returns TRUE (for success)

I did a lot of Google and some of the example scripts seemed to work but it turns out the also only something (like in a very small spreadsheet). Your Logger.log functions for example take quite a while to complete (relatively speaking).
So you'll see the log now from the CloseModal function.

Thanks a lot, it almost work !

The only thing I need to do is when the modal window is close, an alert box appear.   SpreadsheetApp.getUi().alert("closed");

I was not able to do this with you script.

You cannot do that. The callback function can not open a window. The only thing you can do is update the window that is still open by returning false and leaving hhe window open.

It took me a long time. I hope that soon they will release the ability to work with the Card interface in Google Sheets as well.
