Import data from another sheet in Google Sheet


How to Import data from another sheet in google spreadsheet? 


In the target sheet, select the cell and use the following ‘IMPORT RANGE’ function.

=IMPORTRANGE(spreadsheet_url, range_string)

Open the spreadsheet in the empty cell where you wish to import the data just enter the following formula :

= IMPORTRANGE("paste sourcefile link here", "sheetname!B1:B10"

 Copy the source file ‘URL’ (from the sheet you wish to import) and paste it in between the quote in the target sheet.  next, write a sheet name of the source file spreadsheet exactly the way it’s written.  Select the column which you would like to import in the source file.

You receive an entire Column data in the target file where you wish to import.

if you wish to import only the total amount of the column,  just add "Sum before the import range" in the formula as mentioned below.

 =Sum(IMPORTRANGE(spreadsheet_url, range_string))

rest follow the same procedure as our first example to achieve the total amount of the column or rows from the source file.
