Loads HTML from a file in the script project.
class HtmlService method .createHtmlOutputFromFile()
HtmlService is the Apps Script service.
.createHtmlOutputFromFile() is the method name you will see after a dot in your code.
What it does
Why it's used
- Load a polished UI from an Html file in the project.
- Keep markup out of your .gs code for easier editing.
Common errors
- Forgetting parentheses on createHtmlOutputFromFile. Write HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile(), not HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile or createHtmlOutputFromFile by itself.
- Skipping dots between chained calls. Each step needs a dot, like HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile().
- Adding spaces where they do not belong. Write HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile(), not HtmlService .createHtmlOutputFromFile(), HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile (), or HtmlService . createHtmlOutputFromFile().
- Wrong capitalization. Use HtmlService and createHtmlOutputFromFile, not htmlservice or createhtmloutputfromfile.
