Can't get this to work #1

Closed wdominic closed 9 years ago

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Hi There, I can't get it to work. The scheduled draft mail gets sent out immediately instead. Wonder if I'm doing anything wrong?

webdigi commented 9 years ago

If you visit this page https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbw6hnnKGeG6xUsbRE9c3WSvJibTbaW88DP9f83e8lFnc1v1kL0/exec then can you see a list of labels? What is your label name that you used.

Also did you set your timezone from the settings?

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Hi - thanks for replying

a) Time zone set to GMT +8 (Hong Kong, Singapore ,etc). b) Label - creative a customized one i.e. today 6pm

Any more suggestions?

webdigi commented 9 years ago

Looks fine.

If you go to https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbw6hnnKGeG6xUsbRE9c3WSvJibTbaW88DP9f83e8lFnc1v1kL0/exec
Then enter today 6pm in the create a new label does it show you the time correctly?
Also just to confirm that when using the label you are only adding the label to the draft and not actually clicking the send button. Just to be sure :-) [All you have to do is to add label and close the draft]
Can you try another label say after 5 minutes and see if that works correctly?

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Hi,

I did as you instructed with the following results:

a) It's 5:57pm now. I set the label for 6:00 pm without stating today. b) I closed the email draft (without clicking the send button which I did earlier) c) Now the email is still sitting in draft mode and din't leave the draft folder

Anything else to try?

webdigi commented 9 years ago

Great. Can you please check the list of labels under Gscheduler -> Queue can you see the list of emails that are to be sent. Can you see your email in that list and what time does it say?

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Where can I find Gsheduler - > Queue?

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Ok. Found it in gmail (bar on the left side). I refreshed gmail, nothing in the "Queue"

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Ok. Now I can see it in the Queue - maybe it takes time to get there?

webdigi commented 9 years ago

Ok cool. Yes, due to gmail api limits the check to move from timer -> queue is done only once every 5 minutes. Can you please paste the label on the queue.

wdominic commented 9 years ago

Ok - this time it worked. Let me try a few more times and if there are any issues - will report it here. Great and really appreciate the fast response :)
