Thanks you for sharing an educational segment. As being a self taught dev your video has helped me put together a thought that I think I might just be able to build.

Hi, thanks so much for the explanation. I'm a bit confused regarding the actual fileID. Should the fileID be kept hard coded or can we get the fileID of the file from where the doGet() is triggered (for ex., if there is another spreadsheet with a button that triggers the web app URL). If we do the second option (getting the fileID dynamically), would that mean that anybody who has the web app URL would be able to get access to it and be validated?

Fabulous video! one question; so, what happens when the file is shared to everyone with no specific email, in that case there is no shared list to, would it recognize the validation for any google account holder?

is it possible that it doesnt recognize me as an editor cause im the Owner of the file?
