isValidSpreadsheetId

function isValidSpreadsheetId(value: unknown): value is string;

At least 25 characters of letters, digits, hyphens and underscores — the id that sits in a spreadsheet URL between /d/ and /edit. Nothing is fetched: the format is all that is checked.

isX and nonX answer a question and never interrupt control flow; requireX and requireNonX hand the value back or throw. The scheme is explained in Validation conventions.

Parameters

Parameter

Type

Description

value

unknown

The value to check.

Returns

boolean — true when the value is a spreadsheet id; otherwise false.

In TypeScript the guard narrows value to string inside the branch.
