I'm generating a CSV client-side and putting it into a Blob and then creating an object URL.
What I'm attempting to accomplish is generate this blob URL and then save the file to Google Drive. I'm using the Save to Drive button in this example but it doesn't seem to even load the save button unless I strip off "blob:http:" in which case it will look to load the button correctly but this isn't a valid file anymore.
Is this even possible to save a blob file to Google Drive?
Here's what my code looks like:
var data = [["one", "info 1", "additional 1"], ["two", "info 2", "additional 2"]],
csvContent = [], output, objectURL;
data.forEach(function(infoArray, index) {
var dataString = infoArray.join(",");
csvContent += index < infoArray.length ? dataString+ "\n" : dataString;
});
output = new Blob([csvContent], { type: 'text/csv' });
objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(output);
gapi.savetodrive.render('savetodrive-div', {
src: objectURL,
filename: 'save-to-drive.csv',
sitename: 'Example'
});
Thanks!
