Sometimes you don't want the values of cells in a sheet to be edited. If so, you can use the isProtected option to set and get whether the sheet is protected.
If you want to protect the worksheet with a password, you can use protect, unprotect and hasPassword API.
When a sheet is protected, you can use protectionOptions to limit user actions by providing an object with the following properties:
allowSelectLockedCells: Boolean that represents whether the user can select locked cells.
allowSelectUnlockedCells: Boolean that represents whether the user can select unlocked cells.
allowSort: Boolean that represents whether the user can sort ranges.
allowFilter: Boolean that represents whether the user can filter ranges.
allowEditObjects: Boolean that represents whether the user can edit floating objects.
allowResizeRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can resize rows.
allowResizeColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can resize columns.
allowDragInsertRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can drag insert rows.
allowDragInsertColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can drag insert columns.
allowInsertRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can insert rows.
allowInsertColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can insert columns.
allowDeleteRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can delete rows.
allowDeleteColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can delete columns.
allowOutlineRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can expand or collapse row outline.
allowOutlineColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can expand or collapse column outline.
