Copy the code below and paste it into your script. You will see my comments in green if exist so follow the help to adapt to your need.


function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook) {
    // change sheet1 by yours
    let sheet = workbook.getWorksheet("Sheet1");
    // change A2:B10 by yours
    let range = sheet.getRange("A2:B10");
    // change 0 if not column A, i.e column B = 1, column C = 2, etc. 
    // change true by false for descending order
    range.getSort().apply([{key: 0, ascending: true}]);
}
