SheetAsJSON + Filtering

This is an extension of DJ Adams' excellent SheetAsJSON Google Apps Script, which provides a way to GET a published Google Spreadsheet as a JSON feed. This version allows generic filtering for terms, more specific control over which rows to parse, and correct MIME type for JSONP output.

Minimal Usage

The following parameters are required for the script to work.

https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbzGvKKUIaqsMuCj7-A2YRhR-f7GZjl4kSxSN1YyLkS01_CfiyE/exec?
+ id=<spreadsheet key>
+ sheet=<sheet name on spreadsheet>

Transforms the data of a given Spreadsheet Sheet to JSON.

• The frozen rows are taken as keys for the JSON.
• The data taken for the values is only that after the frozen rows

Set up:

CLEAN method for Google Apps Script

This is a sample script which works the same action with the CLEAN method of VBA. The CLEAN method of VBA removes the characters of 0-31, 127, 129, 141, 143, 144, 157. Although I had looked for such method for Google Apps Script, I couldn't find it. So I created this. If this is useful for you, I'm glad.

function cleanForGAS(str) {
  if (typeof str == "string") {
    var escaped = escape(str.trim());
    for (var i = 0; i <= 31; i++) {
      var s = i.toString(16);
 var re = new RegExp("%" + (s.length == 1 ? "0" + s : s).toUpperCase(), "g");
