Scripts

Lock File Script

This script adds a function to the "Automation Tools" menu in Google Sheets. The function "Lock this file" locks the current file, making it read-only.

To use this script, follow the general instructions above. Then:

6. Click on "Services" -> "+ Add a service", then add "Drive API".
7. Click on "Deploy" -> "New deployment", then select "Web app" and deploy the script. You may need to give permissions to the script to access your Google Drive.

After refreshing your Google Sheets page, you should see the "Automation Tools" menu. Click on it and select "Lock this file" to lock the current file.

The script can be found in the repository under the filename lock_file_script.js.

Here's the script:

function onOpen() {
  var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
  var menu = ui.getMenu('Automation Tools');
  if (!menu) {
    ui.createMenu('Automation Tools')
      .addItem('Lock this file', 'lockFile')
      .addToUi();
  } else {
    menu.addItem('Lock this file', 'lockFile');
  }
}

function lockFile() {
  var fileId = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getId();
  var update = {
    contentRestrictions: [
      {
        readOnly: true,
        reason: 'Finalized contract.'
      }
    ]
  };
  Drive.Files.update(update, fileId);
}
