About our How-to guides
The following guides contain a set of common use cases and accompanying code snippets that will help you quickly implement a wide variety of features in your add-ons.
Try samples in Code Playground!
Many how-to guides now include a "Try" button that opens the code sample directly in the Code Playground. Click the button to instantly test Document API samples in Script mode without setting up a local development environment!
We're constantly adding new how-tos, so make sure to check back often. If you're looking for Tutorials that guide you in building add-ons from the ground up, please check the Complete Projects section.
