Apply filter with variable as dynamic data (still working on)

I'm on a project in which I get stuck just on the final step.

let me explain: my project to filter data and move the filtered data to another spreadsheet (by the way if you see this Marios thanks a lot for your help). all work properly without issues but something happened and the issue is that I need to input dynamic data as filter and sheet name. I created 2 variables ```location``` which will determine the filter and ```fromApp``` which will determine the sheet name.

my goal is to send the data through the web with its tag to be filtered in the desired sheet.

FYI: the app script is bound to a gsheet.



What I have tried:

Here is the code:

```
function doGet(e) {
return querySheet(e);
}

function doPost(e) {
return querySheet(e);
}

**function tagValue(e) {
var location = e.parameter.location ; // send from app with respective tag
var fromApp = e.parameter.fromApp ; // send from app with respective tag**

}

function FilterOnText() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive()
var range = ss.getDataRange();
var filter = range.getFilter() || range.createFilter()
var text = SpreadsheetApp.newFilterCriteria().whenTextContains(location); // the location will be as per the location variable in the tagValue function
filter.setColumnFilterCriteria(1, text);
}

function titleAsDate() {
const currentDate = Utilities.formatDate(new Date(), "GMT+8", "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss");
return SpreadsheetApp.create("Report of the " + currentDate);
}

function copyWithValues() {
const spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const sourceSheet = spreadSheet.getSheetByName('fromApp'); // fromApp variable will define which sheet the data will be copied (situated in the tagValue function)
const temp_sheet = spreadSheet.insertSheet('temp_sheet');
const sourceRange = sourceSheet.getFilter().getRange();
sourceRange.copyTo(
temp_sheet.getRange('A1'),
SpreadsheetApp.CopyPasteType.PASTE_NORMAL,
false);
SpreadsheetApp.flush();

const sourceValues = temp_sheet.getDataRange().getValues();

const targetSpreadsheet = titleAsDate();

const rowCount = sourceValues.length;
const columnCount = sourceValues[0].length;

const targetSheet = targetSpreadsheet.getSheetByName('Sheet1').setName("Report"); // renamed sheet
const targetRange = targetSheet.getRange(1, 1, rowCount, columnCount);
targetRange.setValues(sourceValues);
spreadSheet.deleteSheet(temp_sheet);
}
