Hey there, thanks so much for this!
I'm wondering if you'd know how I could also write the name of the .csv file in the next blank column (after parsing)? I have multiple files pulling into the sheet, which is awesome btw, but I also need to know which file the data sets came from.
Any help would be amazing and appreciated!
You are going to have to play around with the insert API's . This is all I know on this topic as this is the most that I needed. You already have the filename in line 48. So I guess you do another insert on line 55.
That's what I was playing around with. Maybe the answer will lie in the reference you linked. Thanks for the help!

Well
getName
is used in multiple places.You are going to need to check the console logs and see which one is giving u an error.
Just FYI sheet name refers to the sheet inside the spreadsheet and not the name of the whole spreadsheet.
