Perhaps internally, getBlob() always recreates the Blob without copying the name property from the original blob (which perhaps no longer exists). In that case, the name should be copied to the internal object on setBlob() so it can be copied to the Blob object when getBlob() is called.

Hello,

This isn't reproducible on my side, can you provide an url where this is reproducible?

The following script:

function foo() {
  const doc = DocumentApp.openById("INSERTGOOGLEDOCSID");
  const url = "https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1ZsRqX_9y9Iz322k3mtuS-qWyNRI9VHbI&export=download";
  const body = doc.getBody();
  const paragraph = body.appendParagraph("Sample paragraph");
  const blob = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url).getBlob();
  blob.setName("sampleName");
  const image = paragraph.addPositionedImage(blob);
  console.log("IMAGE BLOB HAS NAME " + image.getBlob().getName());
}

produces the following output:

12:35:43 PM	Notice	Execution started
12:35:45 PM	Info	IMAGE BLOB HAS NAME null
12:35:45 PM	Notice	Execution completed

I'd except the output to have "sampleName" as the blob name.

Hello,

This can be achieved by adding the parameters export=view and adding the right permission to the file.

For example:

function foo() {
  const doc = DocumentApp.openById("INSERTGOOGLEDOCSID");
  const url = "https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=SOME_FILE_ID";
  const body = doc.getBody();
  const paragraph = body.appendParagraph("Sample paragraph");
  const blob = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url).getBlob();
  blob.setName("sampleName");
  const image = paragraph.addPositionedImage(blob);
  console.log("IMAGE BLOB HAS NAME " + image.getBlob().getName());
}

Closing this issue as working as expected, if you encounter a case where this is not true, please, reach me again.

No, the example code doesn't work:

8:35:06 PM	Notice	Execution started
8:35:07 PM	Info	IMAGE BLOB HAS NAME null
8:35:07 PM	Notice	Execution completed

Does your output really give a non-null blob name?
