There's an image in a Google Sheets that I would like to insert into a Google Doc.
How can I transfer the image from the sheet to the document?
I can right-click on the image and select "Copy", but that does not seem to actually copy the image to my clipboard. If I try to then paste into the Google Docs, it just pastes the text that was previously in the clipboard.
I also don't see any obvious way of exporting the image from the Sheets, nor do I see a way to import it as an URL.
The result of QUERY or other similar functions can't be sorted by using the UI sort functions because the values are calculated every time that a recalculation is made in the spreadsheet but we could sort those values by using in formula sort features. In the case of QUERY we could use the ORDER BY clause but also the SORT function.
TL;DR
Replace /edit in the url with /copy
If you follow the tutorial Quickstart: Managing Responses for Google Forms, you'll see that the first step is:
- Make a copy of the sample spreadsheet Apps Script Quickstart: Managing responses for Google Forms.
Clicking on the link takes you to a page such as:
If you look at the URL they use you'll see that it's:
The key is just your document's ID that you can find in the URL.
Formatting it that way is cumbersome. Fortunately, if you follow the URL it'll redirect you to another url, and you'll notice there is an easier way. Just take your existing docs url:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HgtMSoatp1M6pQwwwQqHgZX7jZRldDbSX8VIJ468d4c/edit
and replace edit with copy:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HgtMSoatp1M6pQwwwQqHgZX7jZRldDbSX8VIJ468d4c/copy
Careful not to forget the /d/.

You can either use keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V) or the web clipboard menu to copy and paste in Google Docs.
The Web clipboard menu appears in the toolbar of your doc.
