Unable to assign calendar ID iteratively to extract events from google calendar

I have been trying to create a working script to extract events from different people calendar. Access is available to read the events.



I have the IDs in a different sheet("Cals2Extract") in the range A2: B4 Column Header A(Cal_ID) and B(Active).



While I'm able to extract events from the first name in the column A2, I'm unable to iterate through the second and third name in column A (A3, A4....).



Extracted events are written in a different sheet (EventCal).



Sample Sheet



Any help is appreciated.



function Get(){

var ss=SpreadsheetApp.openById("ID of the sheet")
var sheet=ss.getSheetByName("Cals2Extract");
var sheetArr=sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
var range = sheet.getRange(1, 1, 1, sheet.getMaxColumns());
var values = range.getValues();
var ColIndexmap = {};
var mycal="";
var cal="";

Logger.log(sheet);

Logger.log (sheetArr);

for (var row in values) {
for (var col in values[row]) {
ColIndexmap[values[row][col]]=parseInt(col);
}}

for(var i=1;i<sheetArr.length;i++){
mycal ="";
cal ="";

Logger.log(sheetArr.length);

Logger.log(i);

mycal=sheetArr[i][ColIndexmap["Cal_ID"]];

Logger.log(mycal);

cal = CalendarApp.getCalendarById(mycal);

Logger.log(cal);

if(sheetArr[i][ColIndexmap["Active"]] != ""){


var events = cal.getEvents(new Date("November 1, 2018 00:00:00 CST"), new
Date("November 14, 2018 23:59:59 CST"), {search: ''});


var sheet1 = ss.getSheetByName("EventCal");

sheet1.clearContents();

Logger.log(sheet1);


// Create a header record on the current spreadsheet in cells A1:N1 - Match the number of entries in the "header=" to the last parameter
// of the getRange entry below



var header = [["Calendar Address", "Event Title", "Event Description", 
"Event Location", "Event Start", "Event End", "Calculated Duration",
"Visibility", "Date Created", "Last Updated", "MyStatus", "Created By", "All
Day Event", "Recurring Event"]]
var range = sheet1.getRange(1,1,1,14);
range.setValues(header);


// Loop through all calendar events found and write them out starting on calulated ROW 2 (i+2)



for (var i=0;i<events.length;i++) {
var row=i+2;
var myformula_placeholder = '';

var details=[[mycal,events[i].getTitle(), events[i].getDescription(),
events[i].getLocation(), events[i].getStartTime(), events[i].getEndTime(),
myformula_placeholder, ('' + events[i].getVisibility()),
events[i].getDateCreated(), events[i].getLastUpdated(),
events[i].getMyStatus(), events[i].getCreators(), events[i].isAllDayEvent(),
events[i].isRecurringEvent()]];
var range=sheet1.getRange(row,1,1,14);
range.setValues(details);

var cell=sheet1.getRange(row,7);

')+(MINUTE(E' +row+ ')/60))');
cell.setNumberFormat('.00');

    In order to understand correctly your situation, can you add more information? 1. About I'm unable to iterate through the second and third name in column A (A3, A4....)., does an error occur or ? Can you explain the detail of this? 2. Can you provide a sample spreadsheet? Of course, please remove your personal information. I think that these will help users think of your solution.

  • 1. No error occurs: I'm trying to assign calendar ID dynamically to my variable var mycal; only the first ID in A1 gets extracted. Ideally I want the next ID in A2 to get assigned to mycal and get the events extracted until the list ends in column A 2. Edited the question to include Sample sheet. I have included dummy calendar ID for testing purpose which can be replaced with your ID to test.

  • Thank you for your response. I saw the sample spreadsheet. In your script, it seems that mycal=sheetArr[i][ColIndexmap["Cal_ID"]]; can have the values from "A2" to "A4". So I couldn't understand about your issue. Can you explain the detail? If I had misunderstood your reply, please tell me.

  • The whole code runs only for the first value i.e. A2 and doesn't loop for other values
