I'm trying to copy a table that i already have in my doc and paste it in other part of the doc, someone know how to do that?
I'm very new doing this so what i have until now is to copy some table and paste it randomly. I want to copy the table i want not some table and paste it wherever i want not randomly
*Here is the link to my doc * https://docs.google.com/document/d/1s2TCspXbjvHVurwhIWSdwJ_hMcZIoLTKj4FAB82nmhM/edit?usp=sharing
Here is my current code
function copyBody(){
var sourcedoc = DocumentApp.openById('1nH84jfwW0-YD4_6LgRQF7MXB7GsWeTomAQK1Foz3BLE');
var sourcebody = sourcedoc.getBody();
var tables = sourcebody.getTables();
var table = tables[0].copy();
var x = sourcebody.appendTable(table)
}
In this answer, the following sample situation is used.
{{replace}}
as the paragraph.{{replace}}
with the table.Before you run the script, please copy and paste {{replace}}
to the destination Document. And then, please run the script.
function myFunction() {
const sourceDocId = "###"; // Please set the source Document ID.
const destinationDocId = "###"; // Please set the destination Document ID.
const srcDoc = DocumentApp.openById(sourceDocId);
const srcTable = srcDoc.getBody().getTables()[0].copy();
const dstDoc = DocumentApp.openById(destinationDocId);
const dstBody = dstDoc.getBody();
const find = dstBody.findText("{{replace}}");
if (find) {
const child = find.getElement().getParent();
const childIndex = dstBody.getChildIndex(child);
dstBody.insertTable(childIndex, srcTable);
find.getElement().removeFromParent(); // <--- Modified
}
}
