            Answer:

            Unfortunately doing this directly by attempting to web scrape the search results using UrlFetchApp will not work. You can use third party tools to get the number of search results, however.

            More Information:

            I tested this out using an exponential backoff method which sometimes is able to get past 429 errors when a fetch request is invoked by UrlFetchApp.

            When using UrlFetchApp to either web scrape or to connect to an API, it can happen that the server denies the request on the grounds of too many requests - or HTTP Error 429.

            Google Apps Script runs in the cloud, from a set of IP addresses in a pool that Google own. You can actually see all the IP ranges here. Most websites (especially large companies such as Google) have architecture in place to prevent the use of bots scraping their websites and slowing down traffic.

            Sometimes it's possible to get past this error, using a mixture of exponential backoff and random time intervals as shown for the Binance API (Full Disclosure: this GitHub repository was written by me.)

            I assume that either Google directly blocks the Apps Script IP pool, or there are simply too many people trying the same thing - because with the same techniques I was unable to get any response that didn't involve entering a captcha as we discussed in the comments above and can be seen in the log of the page string.

            What can be done:

            There are many third party APIs that you can use to do this, and I suggest searching for one that meets your needs.

            I tested out one called Authoritas which returns search engine indexing for different keywords. The API is asynchornous, so can take up to a minute to get a response, so a Web App solution needs to be made.

            The flow I used is as follows:

            You can try with QUERY or FILTER approach.

            Query:
            • =query({A2:C5}, "select * where Col1='A'")
            Filter:
            • =filter(A2:C5, A2:A5 = "A")
            Outputs:

            Note:
            • I recommend using filter if data is simpler and can be written as a single range.
            • I recommend using query for complicated/composite data via combining columns coming from different sheets, or columns not beside each other and needs to be put into array (e.g. {A1:A, C1:C}, etc.)

            I believe your goal as follows.

            • You want to export each page of a Google Slides as each PDF file.
            • You want to achieve this using Google Apps Script.

            In this case, how about the following flow?

            1. Retrieve all slides from the source Google Slides.
            2. Create a temporal Google Slides.
            3. Export each page as a PDF file.
            4. Remove the temporal Google Slides.

            When this flow is reflected to a script, it becomes as follows.

            Sample script:

            Please copy and paste the following script to the script editor of Google Slides, and run the function myFunction. By this, the script is run.

            Upon checking the fetched content, it shows the all the page content rather than just the code. It is because you are getting all the content of that page, not just the code. Use the raw version instead by clicking the Raw icon and should redirect you to the correct link.

            Your command now should look like this:

            eval(UrlFetchApp.fetch('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chishui/JSSoup/master/lib/jssoup.js').getContentText());

            Detect when a File has Been Uploaded to Google Drive in GAS
            Asked 2021-Apr-28 at 11:48

            I'm looking for a way to trigger a GAS (google app script) when I upload a file to google drive. I was pointed to the push notification API. I can't get it to work with GAS. There are a lot of questions about this on StackOverflow, but they were all 5+ years ago. Any change since then? Can I do this without using cloud functions?

            Questions I've looked through:

            And much more I've not mentioned here.

            I am also aware you can do this with a timer, but waiting 15 minutes for the change to take effect would hurt my use by quite a bit. One mentions a solution I like, but I don't know how to make it work :

            UPDATE: Gmail leverages Cloud Pubsub for push notifications and this service has recently been updated to remove the need for domain verification for push endpoints. So, going forward its now possible to use GAS Web App URLs in this scenario.

            If I could make it work it would solve my issue. Question about the above: Google Push Notifications API Without domain Using App Script

            ...

            ANSWER

            Answered 2021-Apr-28 at 11:48

            The Gmail API uses Cloud Pubsub to send push notifications.

            Unfortunately, the Drive API does not currently have that capability. The Drive API leverages HTTP endpoints (aka. webhooks) to receive push notifications and that requires domain verification (see documentation).

            In the past, GAS Web Apps were automatically verified when registered with the Chrome Web Store, but that option was removed from the IDE back in 2019.

            Moreover, the Drive API sends most of its notification payload as HTTP headers which cannot be accessed from a GAS Web App (doPost(e) only allows access to the POST body and URL params).

            So what you want is not currently possible using GAS, at least not by itself. If you want to remain within Google's ecosystem, you can try using a GCP Cloud Function instead (or maybe as an intermediary service), but its not free.

            Alternatively, you can setup an endpoint outside of Google's platform (for example; a URL to a PHP script hosted on your own domain), but you'll need to verify that endpoint's URL using one of the methods outlined in the documentation.

            Google sheets script, Every function combined with && operator and setting range of values to check array against

            Follow up to Sending duplicate data to array, then checking if said array is empty or not to decide what code to run next, if statement not working correctly.

            I'm pretty much trying to copy the conditional formatting that I put to notify users of "bad" data, but with script to prevent sending bad data and giving unique error messages. With the answer from my last question, the checks and preventing sending no data or data with duplicates works, but I'm now stuck on preventing sending of data that does not match the format of a four digit number.

            My conditional formatting was to set the background color to orange on anything that was not equal to or in between 1000 and 9999, but I'm having trouble getting the scripting to work--I'm trying to use negation of anything in between those two values as the "false" that will prompt an error message, and the "true" to let the rest of the script run that will send the data and notification emails out. However, this makes it say that there are bad values even if I do have the correct data in. Removing the negation lets anything go through, like it's not actually checking it. Any ideas?

            The section I'm asking about is the last else if statement:

            Issue:

            It is finding duplicates because you are retrieving several empty cells, and two empty strings are duplicates from each other.

            Solution:

            At readData, you are providing lastRow as the third parameter of getRange(row, column, numRows). This refers to the number of rows in your range. Since the first row is 6, the last 6 rows in the retrieved range will be empty cells. You can fix that by making your third parameter var numRows = lastRow - firstRow + 1 instead.

            Also, in order to make sure you have no empty cells in the column, you can remove them from your array via filter(String) (see filter).

            Also, I'd suggest using flat() in order to get a 1D array, instead of the more complicated concat and apply process you're using.
