Usage notes 

The FILTER capability "channels" a scope of information in view of provided measures. The outcome is a variety of matching qualities from the first reach. In plain language, the FILTER capability will separate matching records from a bunch of information by applying at least one sensible tests. Intelligent tests are provided as the incorporate contention and can incorporate numerous sorts of recipe measures. For instance, FILTER can match information in a specific year or month, information that contains explicit text, or values more noteworthy than a specific limit.

The FILTER capability takes three contentions: exhibit, incorporate, and if_empty. Cluster is the reach or exhibit to channel. The incorporate contention ought to comprise of at least one legitimate tests. These tests ought to return TRUE or FALSE in view of the assessment of values from exhibit. The last contention, if_empty, is the outcome to return when FILTER tracks down no matching qualities. Regularly this is a message like "No records found", yet different qualities can be returned too. Supply an unfilled string ("") to not show anything.

The outcomes from FILTER are dynamic. At the point when values in the source information change, or the source information cluster is resized, the outcomes from FILTER will refresh consequently. Results from FILTER will "spill" onto the worksheet into numerous cells.

In the above example, the formula in F5 is:

=FILTER(B5:D14,D5:D14=H2,0)

Since the value in H2 is "red", the FILTER function extracts data from array where the Group column contains "red". All matching records are returned to the worksheet starting from cell F5, where the formula exists.

Values can be hardcoded as well. The formula below has the same result as above with "red" hardcoded into the criteria:

=FILTER(B5:D14,D5:D14="red",0)
