@brettargh18 @harshjv update getLatestDraft with the below and it will work

function getLatestDraft () { //var drafts = GmailApp.getDraftMessages() var drafts = GmailApp.getDrafts()[0] var message = drafts.getMessage() if (message.length === 0) return null else return message }

Sorry it's not working,getting error: Missing ; before statement. (line 32, file "Code")Dismiss

If you use invalid email (i.e. "email"), gmail will remove it when saving your draft.
Either use valid email format (i.e. "[email protected]") as email placeholder (column header) or hardcode it in google script to resolve this issue.

//var emailPlaceHolder = draft.getTo()
var emailPlaceHolder = 'email'

I've made the suggested changes to getLatestDraft but still getting the trim error.

TypeError: Cannot call method "trim" of undefined.

Any idea what the error means? I'm not a coder so it pretty meaningless to me!

[DervMan]

I got it working! I also had to make the emailPlaceHolder change. Once I did that it worked.

I'm having the same issues as the guys above - @DervMan or @krnsptr or @patrickacollier would you be able to upload the full code again please?
