Document Service

AI-generated Key Takeaways

The Google Apps Script Document service allows programmatic creation, access, and modification of Google Docs files.
DocumentApp is the main class for creating and opening documents, while the Document class manages the document as a whole.
The service provides numerous classes to represent document elements, such as Body, Paragraph, Table, and Text, each with methods for manipulation.
Attributes like font size, color, and alignment can be controlled using the Attribute enumeration.
The Element class serves as a base for all document components, offering general methods for accessing properties and navigating the document structure.

This service allows scripts to create, access, and modify Google Docs files.

// Open a document by ID.
var doc = DocumentApp.openById('DOCUMENT_ID');

// Create and open a document.
doc = DocumentApp.create('Document Name');
