Welcome! In this tutorial, weβll guide you through creating an interactive interface using Google Apps Script and Google Sheets. This interface allows users to fill out a form with fields for Name, Address, Mobile Number, Gender, and Image, and displays the data dynamically alongside a Google Sheet. Letβs get started!
Features of the Interface
- π Input Fields: Name, Address, Mobile Number, Gender, and Image.
- π Automatic Saving: Data is saved directly to a Google Sheet upon submission.
- π Dynamic Display: Entries are displayed on the right side of the sheet.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Set Up the Google Sheet
- π Open theΒ Google Sheet TemplateΒ provided in the description.
- π Click on Make a Copy to save it to your Google Drive.
2. Configure Image Storage
- π Go to Google Drive and create a new folder (e.g., “Images”).
- π Open the folder, click on Share, and set access to Anyone with the link.
- π Copy the folder ID from the URL in the address bar.
3. Edit the Apps Script
- π§ In your Google Sheet, navigate to Extensions > Apps Script.
- π Locate the line of code that uses
getFolderById()
. - π Replace the placeholder folder ID with the ID you copied earlier.
- β Save the script to apply the changes.
4. Deploy the App

- π Provide the deployment details (name, description, etc.).
- π Grant necessary authorizations:
- Click on Advanced > Go to Image Upload (unsafe) > Allow.

5. Test the Form
- π Fill in the form fields (Name, Address, Mobile Number, Gender, and Image).

Editing and Updating Records
- ποΈ To edit a record, click the Edit button next to the entry.

- π Click Update, and the changes will reflect in both the Google Sheet and the dynamic display.
Common Issues and Fixes
