Can anyone help point out where I can manage the PDF file name? Ideally, I'd like to incorporate the value of a cell into the file name. Don't seem to be able to find where through some trial and error. This may not be the right place. Any help is appreciated!
I have not found one. In case it helps, it seems as though the filename is a combination of Spreadsheet (Book) name, and Sheet name that is bring printed so conceptually "Spreadsheet - Sheet.pdf"
Line 53
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, params).getBlob().setName("foobar.pdf");

@techdoneforyou - Thank you very much! That's what I needed!
Great script Spencer - just curious if you had time to reverse engineering Custom Page breaks in Google Sheets and how to export the sheets to PDFs using Custom Page Breaks. Many thanks.
