Parse CSV in Google Spreadsheets
I'm trying to automatically parse a CSV document into separate cells in Google Spreadsheets. I'm using the script below, however, it just presents the ,
separated value, whereas, I need those values appear in individual cells. Any ideas?
function importCSVFromWeb() {
var csvUrl = "https://ctrlq.org/data.csv";
var csvContent = UrlFetchApp.fetch(csvUrl).getContentText();
var csvData = Utilities.parseCsv(csvContent);
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
sheet.getRange(1, 1, csvData.length, csvData[0].length).setValues(csvData);
}

Have you tried passing delimiter? LikeUtilities.parseCsv(csvContent, ",");

@RenatIshmukhamedov I've run your code and it works perfectly. The problem is probably in your csv file, and you need to share it, or a sample of it, so we can understand the layout and any issues. I'm assuming that you are NOT using thecsvUrl
above, because it doesn't exist.
