Hello @xiaoqi

The description of the attachEvent method says:

Subscribes to the specified event and calls the callback function when the event fires.

This method allows connecting to the any plugin event for the specified editor. Please find the list of events here:

Hello！I have the same question.The link you show is the event of plugin object, not the event of spreadsheetAPI.Whether these two event are the same?

Hello @guochongjin

Unfortunately, the documentation is being updated, currently there is no list available. Technically, these are indeed plugin events.

Thank you for your response. Do you have an estimated timeline for the update/fix?

@guochongjin, @xiaoqi

I’d like to bring some clarifications on attachEvent method – basically, this method for each editor already demonstrates the event that can be utilized:

Other than that, they cannot utilize any other plugin event. I was incorrect mentioning plugin events here:

Answering this question now – attachEvent for Office API (all links to the variants for each editor I’ve mentioned above) cannot work with plugin events, so they are not the same.

Please accept my sincere apologies for confusion. We’ll update descriptions of each attachEvent method to make it more clearer towards the understanding of their capabilities.
