So here is my response based on my experience. Now, for personal experience I prefer to use a template since you can customize the template and could send a personalized pdf file, however, this will depend on the purpose of why are you generating such pdf file. This sample contains a form and after you click on the button this takes the data entered on the app and send an email with the pdf generated from the application. In case you just want to create a PDF file with information retrieved from the application itself I would recommend to check the App Maker sample. I know that you don’t want to use a template. This is my first answer and I hope it works for you as it worked for me. I am new on scripting and App Maker as well and will share my experience with creating pdf files and working with App Maker.

I will try to be as specific as possible. I am using SQL database var templateId = '1IbbrRJhYSnfEmgUD1GYrj圎HeyseGtQFx-G3CzEC4mI' I got it to link to the Google Docs but it comes back with a value of undefined.

I am trying to get App maker data to import into a google doc template and than create a PDF of that doc with the imputed values in place of the placeholder. Var copyDoc = DocumentApp.openById(copyFile.getId()) Var copyFile = DriveApp.getFileById(templateId).makeCopy(filename) Var filename = 'Document for Customer ' + record.ClientName + new Date() I am new to App Script and any help would be greatly appreciated I want to be able to enter Data in App from APP maker. I have tried multiple different scripts Found here on Stackoverflow. So I know its possible but I am new to making scripts and can't figure it out.

There is another form post link Google App Maker - Creating a contract. I want to export that data to a google docs template and create a PDF.īut I get an error Creating new record: (Error) : Invalid argument: replacement atĪt 1CreateButton.onClick:2:19 I am trying to use google app maker to enter data.
