Task: For each of our clients, we need to build eight spreadsheets with a minimum of two triggers each: 1) on Open and 2) Time based to refresh specific data from a larger spreadsheet. (This is a workaround for failing IMPORTRANGE functions.)
We currently have 100 clients, and are expanding to 200 shortly. Therefore, our current need is approximately 800 spreadsheets, and 1,600 triggers; projected to be 1,600 and 3,200 respectively very soon.
Problem After creating the first 300 spreadsheets (approximately 600 triggers) we have received the following error:
Your Quota of Triggers has been exceeded. To Create more, you must delete some existing triggers.
Desired Solution: We are collecting the eight spreadsheets on a private Google site for each client. Ideally we could invoke each spreadsheet script from the site, and eliminate time-based triggers. Tried creating a button to execute the script, but on the site, it is not interactive.
Questions: Operating on Windows 7, error is in Chrome also tried Firefox, and got same error.
1)a Does anyone know of the limits on triggers, is it published somewhere?
1)b Is there a way to increase these limits?
2) Any ideas on another work around or solution?
回答1:
Eric already answered your question (1). (No, and no)
Now to question (2), a possible workaround is to invert the scenario of your scripts, instead of each script fetch its data on the "larger spreadsheet", a single script on your master could distribute the data on all other spreadsheets. You could have some kind of "registration" of each spreadsheet, maybe place them in the same folder, or any other way that suit you.
By changing the approach to this one, you'll surely run into another limitation, which is the script total run time: 6 minutes. But this problem you can easily work around by splitting the task into minor chunks that you can work and resume on a every minute trigger.
回答2:
There are limits to the number of triggers one user can have, but they aren't published and they can't be changed.
