How can I upload files to google drive? I want to create a web app using google app script - htmlservice. I don't know how to point form in html to existing google app script. I am having hard time to find a right example in google documentation.
I found hundreds of examples using UI but according to https://developers.google.com/apps-script/sunset it will be deprecated soon. Thank you in advance! Janusz

var fileBlob = e.parameter.upload;
var adoc = DocsList.createFile(fileBlob);
return adoc.getUrl();
}

Have the button run the server side function using google.script.run, passing in the entire form as the only parameter. (Inside the button's onClick, 'this' is the button, so 'this.parentNode' is the form.) Make sure to give the file input a name.
On the server, have your form handling function take one parameter - the form itself. The HTML form from the client code will be transformed into an equivalent JavaScript object where all named fields are string properties, except for files which will be blobs.
If you actually want to use that URL you are generating and returning, be sure to add a success handler to the google.script call. You can modify it like this:
