Google App Script / Spreadsheet - How to get filter criteria?

Question

Is it possible to get the filter criteria of my data set. For example, if one of my column is \"Department\" and I filtered the data to display only \"IT\". How do we get th

Answer 1

Based on mhawksey answer, I wrote the following function:

//
function celdasOcultas(ssId, rangeA1) {  
  // limit what's returned from the API
  var fields = "sheets(data(rowMetadata(hiddenByFilter)),properties/sheetId)";
  var sheets = Sheets.Spreadsheets.get(ssId, {ranges: rangeA1, fields: fields}).sheets;
  if (sheets) {
    return sheets[0].data[0].rowMetadata;
  }
}

then called it this way:

    // i.e. : ss = spreadsheet, ranges = "Hoja 2!A2:A16"
    Logger.log(range.getA1Notation());
    var ocultas = celdasOcultas(ss.getId(), sheetName + "!" + range.getA1Notation());
    // Logger.log(ocultas);
    var values = range.getValues();
    for (var r = 0; r < values.length; r++) {
      if (!ocultas[r].hiddenByFilter) {
        values[r].forEach( function col(c){
          Logger.log(c);
        });
      }
      //range.setBackground("lightcoral");
    }

Than prevent the log of the hidden rows. You can see it in action at: Prueba script, note project has to get Google Sheets API enabled on Google API Console.

Hope it helps. Thank you!
