Create a comment | Google-SpreadSheet | nodeJS

I am trying to put a comment using NODEJS and the "Google Spread-Sheet" module, I have managed to write in cells, read, delete, but I can not put a comment in a cell, and the tutorials I see only teach discontinued forms, someone could help me? thank you very much.

const { GoogleSpreadsheet } = require('google-spreadsheet');
const creds = require('./googleSheetCredentials.json');

async function accessSpreadSheet() {
    const doc = new GoogleSpreadsheet('XXXXXXXXXXXX');
    await doc.useServiceAccountAuth(creds);
    await doc.loadInfo();
    const sheet = doc.sheetsByIndex[0];

    await sheet.addRow({
        Login: 'hello world', // column A
        Date: '2020-01-01' // column B
    });

    const row = await sheet.getRows();
    console.log(row);

    //await sheet.addComment('2', 'Login', 'Hello world'); Doesn't work 
}

accessSpreadSheet();

I believe your goal is as follows.

  • You want to insert a note to a cell.
    • From your showing script and await sheet.addComment('2', 'Login', 'Hello world');, I guessed that you wanted to insert a note to the column "A" of the added row.
  • You want to achieve this using node-google-spreadsheet.

In this case, how about the following modification?

Modified script:

const { GoogleSpreadsheet } = require('google-spreadsheet');
const creds = require('./googleSheetCredentials.json');

async function accessSpreadSheet() {
  const doc = new GoogleSpreadsheet('XXXXXXXXXXXX');
  await doc.useServiceAccountAuth(creds);
  await doc.loadInfo();
  const sheet = doc.sheetsByIndex[0];

  // I modified below script.
  const res = await sheet.addRow({
    Login: "hello world", // column A
    Date: "2020-01-01", // column B
  });
  await sheet.loadCells();
  sheet.getCellByA1("A" + res.rowIndex).note = "sample note";
  await sheet.saveUpdatedCells();
}

accessSpreadSheet();
  • When you run this script, a note of sample note is inserted into the column "A" of the added row.

Note:

  • This modified script supposes that you have already been able to get and put values to Google Spreadsheet using Sheets API with google-spreadsheet and your script of await sheet.addRow works. Please be careful about this.
