google apps script to open a new website in a new window

Code.gs

function openTab() {
  var selection = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getActiveCell().getValue();
  
  var html = "<script>window.open('" + selection + "');google.script.host.close();</script>";
  
  var userInterface = HtmlService.createHtmlOutput(html);
  
  SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModalDialog(userInterface, 'Open Tab');
}

Thanks

Awesome! Worked perfectly.

What if Spreadsheet is not the use case, suppose you have link for a Google Drive file and then you have to open that link in a new tab or window?

Only works with google chrome?

Hello, how to open 2 url at the same time? Please

Thanks!

• Hi, the workaround to download Link from a cell works great.
• How about if there is more links. Say for example I've a multiple URL's in column B, range about B1:B10.
• How to download the data from these different URL's .
  Should we use for loop or do while for this criteria
  Note: I've replaced getActiveCell() with getRange('Cell_Reference')
