Google script to copy and rename a sheet and name is based on a cell reference

Question

I\'m new to google scripts and I need to copy the current active sheet to a new sheet and then rename this sheet based on a cell value. My issue is the cell value is a date

Answer 1

Just using .getDisplayValue() in place of .getValue() in your code should do the trick.

It gets the value displayed in the cell as a string, taking into account things like date formatting, so when you then use that to rename your sheet the sheet name will be the same as what you see in your cell.
