I am using Google Apps script to set up a spreadsheet merge to a from letter that will be emailed. I copied a similar script and added my info. Everytime I try to save it I get the "We're sorry a server error occurred. Please wait a bit and try again."
// [email protected]
// Job Offer Letter
// Get template from Google Docs and name it
var docTemplate = "1Y5ohbBWPeLSvNijge6I3ueQpulFzeZTky7853sKGSj8";
var docName = "HR_2_Job_Offer_form_letter";
// When Form Gets Submitted
function onFormSubmit(e) {
// Get information from form and set our variables
var email_address = e.values[10];
var date = e.values[1];
var first_name = e.values[2];
var last_name = e.values[3];
var job_title = e.values[11];
var status = e.values[13];
var hourly_wage = e.values[14];
var start_date = e.values[15];
// Get document template, copy it as a new temp doc, and save the doc's id
var copyId = DocList.getFileById(docTemplate)
.makeCopy(docName+' for '+first_name last_name)
.getId();
// Open the temporary document
var copyDoc = DocumentApp.openById(copyId);
// Get the document's body section
var copyBody = copyDoc.getActiveSection();
// Replace place holder keys, in our google doc template
copyBody.replaceText('keyTodaysDate', date);
copyBody.replaceText('keyFirstName', first_name);
copyBody.replaceText('keyLastName', last_name);
copyBody.replaceText('keyJobTitle', job_title);
copyBody.replaceText('keyStatus', status);
copyBody.replaceText('keyHourlyWage', hourly_wage);
copyBody.replaceText('keyStartDate', start_date);
// Save and close the temporary document
copyDoc.saveAndClose();
// Convert document to PDF
var pdf = DocList.getFileById(copyId).getAs("application/pdf")'
// Attach PDF and send the email
var subject = "Job Offer";
var body = "Here is the Job Offer for " + first_name last_name + "";
MailApp.sendEmail(email_address, subject, body, {htmlBody: body, attachments: pdf});
// Delete temp file
DocsList.getFileById(copyId).setTrashed(true);
}
