This codelab introduces developers to Google Apps Script, our customized JavaScript-in-the-cloud application hosting platform which gives developers integrated access to G Suite, Google, and external services. Access it at http://g.co/codelabs/apps-script-intro.
- A Google account (G Suite accounts may require administrator approval)
- Basic JavaScript skills
- Basic spreadsheet skills
The codelab introduces developers to one of the easiest ways to write code that accesses Google developer technologies, all by leveraging one of the mainstream web development languages, JavaScript. Using Google Apps Script, you will write code to ex 5FE9 tract an address sitting in a cell in a Google Sheet, generate a Google Map based on that address, and send a link of the map to yourself or a friend using Gmail. The best part? It's only 4 lines of JavaScript!
If you're completely new to Apps Script, check out our overview video. A longer intro video can be found here as well as another video walking you through the code in this codelab & repo.
