Use IMPORTRANGE with Multiple Sheets using Query function

To use IMPORTRANGE with multiple sheets using the Query function in Google Sheets, you'll need to combine data from multiple sheets into a single sheet using the IMPORTRANGE function, and then apply the Query function to filter, sort, or manipulate the data as needed.

Here's the step-by-step process:

1. Start by using the IMPORTRANGE function to import data from multiple sheets. The syntax for the IMPORTRANGE function is as follows:

   IMPORTRANGE(spreadsheet_url, range_string)

   • spreadsheet_url is the URL of the Google Sheet you want to import data from.
   • range_string is the range of cells you want to import, in the format SheetName!A1:Z.
2. Use the QUERY function to manipulate the imported data. The syntax for the QUERY function is as follows:

   QUERY(data, query, [headers])

   • data is the range of cells you want to query.
   • query is a string containing the query you want to perform on the data.
   • [headers] is an optional parameter specifying the number of header rows in the data.

Example

Here's an example of how to use IMPORTRANGE with multiple sheets and Query function in Google Sheets:

1. Let's say we have two Google Sheets with the following URLs:
   • Sheet 1: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1abcdefgh/edit
   • Sheet 2: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/2ijklmnop/edit
2. We want to import data from Sheet1!A1:C10 and Sheet2!A1:C10.
3. In a new sheet, use the following formula to import data from both sheets:

   ={IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1abcdefgh/edit", "Sheet1!A1:C10"); IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/2ijklmnop/edit", "Sheet2!A1:C10")}

   This formula combines the data from both sheets into a single range.
4. Now apply the QUERY function to filter and sort the combined data. For example, let's say we want to display only the rows where the value in column B is greater than 100, and sort the results by column C in descending order:

   =QUERY({IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1abcdefgh/edit", "Sheet1!A1:C10"); IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/2ijklmnop/edit", "Sheet2!A1:C10")}, "SELECT * WHERE Col2 > 100 ORDER BY Col3 DESC", 1)

Now you've successfully used the IMPORTRANGE function with multiple sheets and the Query function in Google Sheets.
