How can I make an apps script to instantly allow access to all imported elements in a Google Spreadsheet?

Question

I have to work with google spreadsheets. I am using some template spreadsheets which all contain a lot of links to other spreadsheets. The problem is that whenever I make a copy of the template spreadsheet to use most of the links(created with the importrange function) require me to give them access again

What I want to do is make a script that would allow me to import all the links in one press. I tried to make an app script but I can't found any way to access the textbox with the "allow access" button so that i can make my script. My questions are: is there any way to access the "allow access" button programatically? or is there any other way to solve my problem and allow access to all links in one press?

Answer 1

I had to face to the same issue. The only way to avoid this Allow Access for importrange is to put the linked document (destination of the importrange) public, or shared by the link, which is public too, but if readers have the link. Then there is no requirement of authorizing importrange. Google should avoid this authorization access if the 2 documents are from the same owner, I don't understand where is the security breach here.
