I'm writing some script for my Documents, Spreadsheets and Gmail. I would like to know if there is a way to save all my script to separate files in a specific google drive folder. I don't like having to go to the backend of my Documents and Spreadsheets in order to edit my script.
Would I have to call the document from my script using "getByID" or is there another way?
Yes, when you create a new document in Drive you can select Script. If you don't see the script option, try going here.
You will, however, need to call your document using getByID
. There my be other complexities if you are using onEdit
type triggers.
A lot more information can be found under the Types of Scripts heading at Google Apps Scripts Documentation.
You could go advanced and pull your script in behind the Document as a Library and then using the script behind the Doc to make the calls to the library, but that's a bigger discussion.
