The latest working version is below. Based on this example, i.e. similar as in previous answer but uses Google Service Account which does not require a human going by link to receive a token. You have to install Oath library from Google, the instructions are pretty clear.
var PRIVATE_KEY = 'xxx'
var CLIENT_EMAIL = 'xxx';
var USER_EMAIL=Session.getActiveUser().getEmail()
function getOathService() {
return OAuth2.createService('GoogleDrive:' + USER_EMAIL)
// Set the endpoint URL.
.setTokenUrl('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token')
// Set the private key and issuer.
.setPrivateKey(PRIVATE_KEY)
.setIssuer(CLIENT_EMAIL)
// Set the name of the user to impersonate. This will only work for
// Google Apps for Work/EDU accounts whose admin has setup domain-wide
// delegation:
// https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2ServiceAccount#delegatingauthority
.setSubject(USER_EMAIL)
// Set the property store where authorized tokens should be persisted.
.setPropertyStore(PropertiesService.getScriptProperties())
// Set the scope. This must match one of the scopes configured during the
// setup of domain-wide delegation.
.setScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive');
}
function sendEmail() {
var oathService = getOathService();
var ssID = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getId();
var file = Drive.Files.get(ssID );
var url = file.exportLinks[MimeType.MICROSOFT_EXCEL];
var file = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, {
headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ' + oathService.getAccessToken()
}
});
var attachments = [{
fileName:'xxx.xls',//TODO DATE
content: file.getBlob().getBytes(),
mimeType:"application//xls",
headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ' + oathService.getAccessToken()
}
}];
MailApp.sendEmail('email@domain.com', 'xxx', 'Hi,\n\nPlease see the last data in attachment',{attachments:attachments});
}
