I had used a prior version of this and it worked very well, except it stopped at 500 rows. I tried a couple of times to be sure and had the same results. I am using Google Sheets. I would like to try the newer code, but have a question about one of the variables. I understand the sheet name variable,but don't understand what to put in the Your_Spreadsheet_ID field. Can you help?
Thanks - Patti

Somehow the script doesn't get more than 553 rows but I've got more than 3000 emails. Any idea why is this happening?

@hub2git replace in this code, https://ctrlq.org/code/20053-save-gmail-to-google-spreadsheet
getBody with getSubject

This script works very well, but it stops at 500 rows. The directory I am searching has 553 items in it. Any idea why?

For me it stops at number 512 items. What to do?
Is it some restriction of spreadsheet of the script itself?

getting a "Bad value (line 24, file "Code")"
then it highlights this part : var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(555982521);
i made sure that its the correct id

Can you please guide me how can i edit the code instead of getting 1 data i'll get more other info such as FROM, CC, EMAIL SUBJECT. I keep trying to alter the code it only save in 1 column.

@irawrsilentpls

You need to edit this row

emails.push([msgs[j].getBody().replace(
  /<.*?>/g, '\n').replace(
  /^\s*\n/gm, '').replace(
  /^\s*/gm, '').replace(/\s*\n/gm,
  '\n')]);

Just add something like this

emails.push([
  msgs[j].getBody().replace(/<.*?>/g, '\n').replace(/^\s*\n/gm, '').replace(
    /^\s*/gm, '').replace(/\s*\n/gm, '\n'),
  msgs[j].getSubject(),
  msgs[j].getFrom()
]);
