Question

I don’t understand how to put the pieces together.

The script:

• Gets a data range from a google spreadsheet.
• Filters the data into a new array
• Adds data to a widget label.

Dates are displayed as ‘Tue Oct 06 1942 00:00:00 GMT-0400 (EDT)’ and i want ‘Oct 6, 1942.’

How do I use:

Utilities.formatDate(new Date(), "GMT", "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'");

with

grid.setWidget(i +1, 2, ui.createLabel(mapData[i][3]));

Answer 1

Looks like you’ve answered your question yourself

Use

var dt = Utilities.formatDate(new Date(), "GMT", "MM dd, yyyy");
grid.setWidget(i+1, 2, ui.createLabel(dt));
