I have a script that copies folders and content. It gets the folder names to copy from a sheet. All this works. When the script comes to
DriveApp.getFoldersByName("NameOfFolder");
The script finds the folder iterator when I execute the script, but not when my colleague does.
If he does a search in Drive he can see the folder, the script returns null.
We have the same access to the folder. Its a shared folder on Google Drive.
Can anyone explain?
Here is the code that reproduces the error:
NB: the sheet supplies the script with propper names of folders to look for.
function shortTest() {
var episodeFolderList = DriveApp.getFoldersByName("Folder name");
var episodeFolderByID = DriveApp.getFolderById("longFolderIDXXXXXXX");
Logger.log(episodeFolderByID+"-By ID")
var episodeFolder=episodeFolderList.next();
Logger.log (episodeFolder+ " -by name")
}
Ill ask him to log out of other accounts and try again. Thank you for all the input.
