Get spreadsheet key of the embedded spreadsheet

Do you want to get the spreadsheet key of the spreadsheet which is embedded in current site page :) Here is a quick example which works like a charm.

This question was asked in Google Apps Script Forum. Check this thread for detail (Google Site - spreadsheet embeded - Get the key ?).

Example code:

function doGet() {
  //get the active page
  var page = SitesApp.getActivePage();

  // Get the content of the current page
  var htmlContent = page.getHtmlContent();
  var filteredContentArray = htmlContent.match(/src=\'http:\/\/spreadsheets.google.com\/spreadsheet\/loadredirect\?chrome=false&key=[0-9A-Za-z]+/g);
  var ssKeys = []
  for(var i in filteredContentArray){
  var key = filteredContentArray[i].match(/key=[A-Za-z0-9]+/)[0].substring(4);
ssKeys.push(key);
  }

  //Create an application to display the spreadsheet keys which are embedded in this page
  var app = UiApp.createApplication();
  for(var i in ssKeys){
app.add(app.createLabel(ssKeys[i]));
  }
  return app;
}
