For my example, I have 2 columns A,B in Google Sheet
Column A with list of Stocks symbols like AAPL, IBM, etc....
Column B with simple formula of GOOGLEFINANCE(A2,"price")
Sometimes GOOGLEFINANCE returns error and the cells display #N/A. But this is not my issue...
I would like using filter in column B which show all symbols with prices greater than 100 or #N/A
I prefer not using extra column to achieve that
I'm struggling with it and still didn't find the way to get my result
Just note, my issue isn't GOOGLEFINANCE, It's like example to get the #N/A value
My tought was using filter with formula like: =OR(ISNA(B:B), B:B>100)
But it seems it's ignore the #N/A and doesn't show it
Link for example
In my question I tried the formula "=OR(ISNA(B:B), B:B>100)"
But I must know that if Google Sheets "see" cells with N/A on this column - The result is automatically N/A, even if I put the ISNA in the first condition
So to solve it I used a formula like this:
=IF(ISERROR(B:B), TRUE, B:B>100)
I updated the sheet if someone wants to check it

I'm trying to extend a gs vlookup formula with a 2nd criteria.
This formula works fine with 1 criteria in column A.
=ArrayFormula(IFNA(VLOOKUP(""&A2:A&"",sheet2!C:D,2,FALSE), ""))
But I would like to extend the formula with a 2nd (OR) criteria .
That sould somehow look like this:
=ArrayFormula(IFNA(VLOOKUP(""&A2:A&"" OR ""&B2:B&"",sheet2!C:D,2,FALSE), ""))
(The fomula shoud check if one of the 2 criterias (in column A or B) matches with column C on sheet2 and return the value from D on sheet2)
Is this even possible with a fomula?
This formula seems to do what you're looking for, placed in C2:
=ArrayFormula(
IFNA( VLOOKUP(A2:A,Sheet2!C:D,2,0),
IFNA(VLOOKUP(B2:B,Sheet2!C:D,2,0),"no match")))
I think there are several other ways of doing this, but I went with what you'd started with.
I haven't added error checking yet, for blank rows, etc., to keep it straightforward.
I'm trying to parse this table into Google Sheets: https://exvius.gamepedia.com/Chaining/Bolting_Strike
And getting the title text from where there are images.
I can't figure out how to get the text from the full table, as well as img/#alt in cases where it's available. I can get the table with
=IMPORTXML("https://exvius.gamepedia.com/Chaining/Bolting_Strike","//table[#class='wikitable']/tbody/tr[position()>=3]")
And only the image texts
=IMPORTXML("https://exvius.gamepedia.com/Chaining/Bolting_Strike","//table[#class='wikitable']/tbody/tr[position()>=3]/td/a/img/#alt")
But I can't seem to do both, is that a limitation of Google Sheets IMPORTXML?
I've tried with OR and other bool operators with no luck. Tried with axes but that was also a no go for me.
I propose something like this :
Sheet
Description:
In B1 we have the url of the webpage.
In B3 we have the following formula to import the first part of the table :
=QUERY(IMPORTHTML(B1;"table";1);"select Col1,Col2,Col3 OFFSET 2";0)
Columns L to O contain the following formulas to get the element names and the ability names (which will be used as a key in a VLOOKUP step). 4 formulas because an ability could have 2 element names. In L3,M3,N3,03 we have :
=IMPORTXML(B1;"//td/a[1]/img[#srcset]/ancestor::td[1]/preceding::a[1][#title]")
=IMPORTXML(B1;"//td/a[1]/img[#srcset]/#alt")
=IMPORTXML(B1;"//td/a[2]/img[#srcset]/ancestor::td[1]/preceding::a[1][#title]")
=IMPORTXML(B1;"//td/a[2]/img[#srcset]/#alt")
Formula in E4 is a one liner where the results of 2 VLOOKUP are merged together. We use VLOOKUP to pair each ability name with an element.
=ARRAYFORMULA(REGEXREPLACE(ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C4:INDIRECT("C"&COUNTA(C:C)+2);L:M;2;FALSE);"")&"|"&ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C4:INDIRECT("C"&COUNTA(C:C)+2);N:O;2;FALSE);"")));"^\||\|$";""))
To finish, in H3 we have the last part of the table :
=QUERY(IMPORTHTML(B1;"table";1);"select Col5,Col6 OFFSET 2";0)
The rest (colours, borders,..) is standard and conditionnal formatting.
Side note : I'm based in Europe so you might have to change ; with , in the formulas.
I'm trying to use the IMPORTXML function in Google sheets to grab the meaning and information words on https://www.powerthesaurus.org/
I kind of succeeded getting some data from another website, but as a newbie, I got some troubles to get any data when I try on this one in this Google sheet in D6 cell.
=ImportXML("https://www.powerthesaurus.org/"&A6,"//*[#id='link link--primary link--term']")
Could someone help to educate me with the correct formula?
You're looking for synonyms. Note you can display up to 200 on Power Thesaurus.
To get the 50 first synonyms in one cell (since you have one word per row), you can try this :
Create 50 numbered columns in your GoogleSheet.
Apply this formula to the first cell and drag it to the right.
=IMPORTXML("https://www.powerthesaurus.org/abbreviation/synonyms";"(//div[#class='pt-thesaurus-card__term'])"&"["&B2&"]")
Then use join formula to get all the words in one cell (XX:XX is the range of your columns, B3:F3 on the provided screenshot).
=JOIN("|";XX:XX)
Result :
Alternatively we could have use this one-liner (and make some cleanup afterwards) but GoogleSheet returns a blank cell whereas the XPath is perfectly valid :
=IMPORTXML("https://www.powerthesaurus.org/abbreviation/synonyms";"normalize-space(//div[#class='pt-list-terms__container'])")
I'd like to use ArrayFormula to populate a column in spreadsheet, but when I Sort A->Z in a filter view, the ArrayFormula column vanishes. In some cases, the column includes a #REF! error about the range, and in some cases the column is just blank after the Sort. The following is a simplified version of what I'm trying to do (in my actual application, I'm doing a Vlookup to another sheet):
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XbqqedOjuSKuE-ZLIHNw59-r01EsNMpx7YVqOoxSOR4/edit?usp=sharing
The column 3 header uses an ArrayFormula to copy from column 1. If you go to the Filter 1 filter view, you'll note that column 3 is blank except for an error. This happens after I try to Sort Z->A on column 2. In my more complicated use-case, involving a Vlookup, after a Sort the column disappears entirely (leaving no #REF! error). Before sorting in both cases, everything is fine.
How do I make ArrayFormula values persist in filter views after sorting?
Thanks for your help!
I'm guessing that, because your references are normal (relative, not anchored/absolute), the range A2:A10 after sorting down turns into something absurd, like A7:A4, depending on actual sorted values.
Also, if you hover with your mouse on the #REF error, what does it tell you?
Anyway, try using absolute references in your formula:
=arrayformula({"Column 3"; A$2:A$10})
Edit
Fascinating. It's the first time I see this type of error. Taking it at face value, it seems that it's a limitation of Google Spreadsheets - you cannot use ARRAYFORMULAS spanning multiple rows inside sorted filter views, because, like I sort of guessed, it messes up the ARRAYFORMULA's range (as indicated by the fact that the formula is now in C4 instead of C1).
But that gives you also the solution: do not include the cell with the arrayformula in the filter view. Instead of making your filter view's target range A1:C20, make it A1:B20. Then the arrayformula in C1 will be untouched by the filter and will indeed continue to work.
I have found a solution for my usecase, in your case, it could be:
=arrayformula(if(row(C:C)=1;"Column 3";A:A))
But you'll need to consider the whole columns in your formulas.
Example
Have you tried A2:A?
If you don't put an ending row, means the end of the column.
It worked for me.
Cheers
I've been working on this project where I need to consolidate data from two other sheets within the spreadsheet and filter the result for easy viewing. But I realized the problem when the filter gives no result there will be a #VALUE! error. The error isn't solved even when I have used IFERROR.
Link to the sample of the Google Spreadsheets.
There are two classes and I wish to filter out those who passed in the class and populate the table in the collated sheet.
You should be able to do something like this:
=query({Class1!A2:C; Class2!A2:C}, "where Col3 = 'pass'")
(change the sheet names and ranges to suit !).
(Also check the formula I entered in A1 of sheet 'JP')
