Upload Image to Google Drive And Google Sheet From HTML File Input Element | JavaScript | AppScript

Hello, in today's video i'll be showing you how to upload image in Google drive and Google sheet From HTML File Input Element.

AppScript Code

// This line declares a variable called "app" and assigns it a reference to a Google Spreadsheet specified by its URL
let app = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl("Your_Google_Sheet_URL");
// This line declares a variable called "sheet" and assigns it a reference to a specific sheet within the spreadsheet specified by its name
let sheet = app.getSheetByName("Your_Google_Sheet_Name");

// This function is called when a POST request is made to the URL of the script
function doPost(e){
  try{
    // This line parses the request data as a JSON object and assigns it to a variable called "obj"
    let obj = JSON.parse(e.postData.contents);
    // This line decodes the base64-encoded image data and assigns it to a variable called "dcode"
    let dcode = Utilities.base64Decode(obj.base64);
    // This line creates a new blob from the decoded data, with the specified MIME type and filename, and assigns it to a variable called "blob"
    let blob = Utilities.newBlob(dcode,obj.type,obj.name);
    // This line creates a new file in the user's Google Drive from the blob data and assigns it to a variable called "newFile"
    let newFile = DriveApp.createFile(blob);
    // This line sets the sharing permissions of the new file to "anyone with the link can view", and gets a URL for downloading the file, which is assigned to a variable called "link"
    let link = newFile.setSharing(DriveApp.Access.ANYONE_WITH_LINK,DriveApp.Permission.VIEW).getDownloadUrl();
    // This line gets the index of the last row in the sheet and assigns it to a variable called "lr"
    let lr = sheet.getLastRow();
    // This line sets a formula in the first column of the next row after the last row, which displays the image using the specified URL, and assigns it to a range
    sheet.getRange(lr+1,1).setFormula(`=IMAGE("${link}")`);
    // This line returns a plain text response indicating that the image was uploaded
    return ContentService.createTextOutput("image uploaded")
  }catch(err){
    // This line returns an error message as a plain text response if there was an error during the upload process
    return ContentService.createTextOutput(err)
  }
}

Html JavaScript Code

This is an HTML5 document that includes an input element of type "file" and an image element. It also includes a script that allows the user to select an image and sends it to an API endpoint URL using a POST request.

The script begins by declaring a variable called "url" and assigning it the value of "Api_Endpoint_Url". It then declares a variable called "file" and assigns it the value of the first input element on the page. The script also declares a variable called "img" and assigns it the value of the first image element on the page.

The script adds an event listener to the "change" event of the "file" input element. When the user selects a file, the script creates a new FileReader object called "fr" and adds an event listener to the "loadend" event of the FileReader object. When the FileReader object has finished loading the selected file, the script sets the "src" attribute of the "img" element to the result of the FileReader object.

The script then splits the "res" variable into an array, using the string "base64," as the separator, and assigns the second element to a variable called "spt". It creates an object called "obj" with three properties: "base64", "type", and "name". The "base64" property is set to the value of "spt", the "type" property is set to the MIME type of the selected file, and the "name" property is set to the name of the selected file.

The script then sends a POST request to the URL specified in the "url" variable, with the "obj" object as the request body. It waits for the response from the server and converts it to text. Finally, it logs the response data to the console.
