Apps Script: how to get hyperlink from a cell where there is no formula

When a cell has only one URL, you can retrieve the URL from the cell using the following simple script.

var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var url = sheet.getRange("A2").getRichTextValue().getLinkUrl(); //removed empty parentheses after getRange in line 2

When Excel file including the cells with the hyperlinks is converted to Google Spreadsheet, such situation can be also seen. In my case, I retrieve the URLs using Sheets API. A sample script is as follows. I think that there might be several solutions. So please think of this as one of them.

When you use this script, please enable Sheets API at Advanced Google Services and API console. You can see about how to enable Sheets API at here.

Sample script:

var spreadsheetId = "### spreadsheetId ###";
var res = Sheets.Spreadsheets.get(spreadsheetId, {ranges: "Sheet1!A1:A10", fields: "sheets/data/rowData/values/hyperlink"});
var sheets = res.sheets;
for (var i = 0; i < sheets.length; i++) {
  var data = sheets[i].data;
  for (var j = 0; j < data.length; j++) {
    var rowData = data[j].rowData;
    for (var k = 0; k < rowData.length; k++) {
      var values = rowData[k].values;
      for (var l = 0; l < values.length; l++) {
        Logger.log(values[l].hyperlink) // You can see the URL here.
      }
    }
  }
}

Note:

• Please set spreadsheetId.
• Sheet1!A1:A10 is a sample. Please set the range for your situation.
• In this case, each element of rowData is corresponding to the index of row. Each element of values is corresponding to the index of column.
