Google sheets python script conditional formatting custom formula












0















I want to use a script to format the background color for cells in two separate ranges based on values in a single range.



Ranges to be formatted:
AU6:BL405
BN6:CE405



Based on value = 1 in range:
A6:R405



I'm hoping that using a script will make the file more efficient compared to setting up the conditional formatting using the custom formula formatting function in Sheets.



I would appreciate any help!



Here is the code I've come up with so far:



SpreadsheetID: xxx



myRangeA = {

    startRowIndex: 6,

    startColumnIndex: 47,

    endColumnIndex: 64,



}



myRangeB = {

    startRowIndex: 6,

    startColumnIndex: 66,

    endColumnIndex: 83,



}



reqs = [

    {addConditionalFormatRule: {

        index: 0,

        rule: {

            ranges: [ myRangeA, myRange B ],

            booleanRule: {

                format: {

                  backgroundColor: {backgroundColor: {red: 0.8}}}

                condition: {

                    type: CUSTOM_FORMULA,

                    values:

                        [{userEnteredValue: =A6=1}]

                },

            },

        },

    }},

]



SHEETS.spreadsheets().batchUpdate(spreadsheetId=SHEET_ID,

        body={requests: reqs}).execute()

  • Can you provide the error message and the issue of your script? And is your script a python script? Can you add a tag related to language you are using? Such information will help users think of your solution.
