How to add extra column to query result - google-sheets

I'd like to add one extra column with same text "Toys" to query result.
in the Cell G2, I want the query to be like this:
​
" select *, 'Toys' label 'Toys' 'Product Type' "
This is the expected result I want to display:

You'll need to list all the columns explicitly for that. SELECT *, 'toys' construction does not work in Google Sheets QUERY().
=QUERY(A1:B8,"SELECT A, B, 'Toys' label 'Toys' 'Product Type'")

Try this
=QUERY(A1:C11,"label A 'Items', B 'Price', C 'Product Type' ")
(Adjust the formula according to your ranges and locale)

How to modify QUERY to fill a column with BLANKS

I am trying to populate columns Product Name and Supplier. However, the template I am filling in also has Description in column C. How can I amend the QUERY formula I have to essentially say skip column C and populate relevant data in column D (of course I'd insert the relevant column inside SELECT..)? Or alternatively, can I amend the QUERY to fill the Description column with blanks and then move on to the Supplier column?
you can use something alike this:
=QUERY(A1:B4,"Select A,' ',B LABEL ' '''")
QUERY accepts "anything" as the select clause, so you can do:
=QUERY(data,"select D, '', F offset 1 label '' ''",0)
Or without all the quotes:
=QUERY(data,"select D, 0/0, F offset 1 label 0/0 ''",0)

How to add label tag in Google Sheets Query

I want to add a label to each of the columns generated by this query on a Google Sheets spreadsheet (see screenshot). However, when adding the label tag I get a parse error.
This is my attempt:
=query('6. Calendario 2022'!$C3:$E,"select E label E 'Col1' label C 'Col2', count (C) where C='Junio' and E is not null group by E")
Where does the label tag have to be added? What am I missing here?
You are missing 3rd parameter of Query (number of headers).
Also labels should be at the end of your formula:
Also when you use aggregation (like count(C) ), you should use the same form when defining a label.
=query('6. Calendario 2022'!$C3:$E,"select E , count (C) where C='Junio' and E is not null group by E label E 'Col1', count(C) 'Col2'")

google sheets find by row and sum

This is a simplified version of my data.
I want to calculate the "Whole Tax" row Automatically. I mean I'm looking for any special google sheets formula that can search for those records that are equal to "TAX" and SUM on the values in corresponding month.
In google sheet QUERY() function is really faster and more scalable. You can use wildcard character to ignore leading and trailing spaces. Try below formula.
=SUM(QUERY($A$3:$D$16,"SELECT B WHERE LOWER(A) LIKE '%tax%'"))
On single go get sum of all columns. As per my screenshot put below formula to B17 cell.
=QUERY($A$3:$D$16,"SELECT SUM(B), SUM(C), SUM(D) WHERE LOWER(A) LIKE '%tax%' LABEL SUM(B) '', SUM(C) '', SUM(D) ''")
You should have posted a spreadsheet instead of an image to find out your locale. Try in B17, assuming TAX is not preceded by white spaces
=SUMPRODUCT($A$2:$A$16="TAX",B2:B16)
Consider placing sums at the top of each column so you can select cells using A2:A for rest of column.
Anyhow, use =SUMIF($A$1:$A$15, "*tax", B1:B15) for strings that end in tax, case-insensitive. The wildcard selectors are * for wildcard strings and ? for wildcard characters. Use ~ to escape.
Following on from Harun24HR, here is a more flexible formula in which you do not have to designate each column
=QUERY({A3:D16},"SELECT SUM(Col"&arrayformula(textjoin("),SUM(Col",,COLUMN(B3:D)))&") WHERE LOWER(Col1) LIKE '%tax%' LABEL SUM(Col"&arrayformula(textjoin(")'', SUM(Col",,COLUMN(B3:D)))&") '' ")

GoogleSheets QUERY Formula Grouping

Having some trouble with this sucker. Trying to use QUERY function but want to exclude Column D from grouping. Data I'm hoping to see in each respective column of QUERY table:
Unique (non-duplicated) Names
Most Recent Move-In Date
Most Recent Check Date among those corresponding to "Most Recent Move-In Date" for each unique name
Check Amount Corresponding to that "Most Recent Check Date"
=QUERY(
A:D,
"select A,B, max(C), D where not B is null group by A,B,D label A 'Client Name',
B 'Move-In Date',max(C) 'Check Date',D 'Amount'"
)
What I've figured out so far is that including "Column D" in "group by" causes duplicate Names to appear, but without including that column in "group by" I get a "#VALUE!" error.
See link for sample data with examples: Data Test
Try the following on a copy of your demo spreadsheet.
On G15 add the following formula
=QUERY(
A:D,
"select A,max(B), max(C) where not B is null group by A label A 'Client Name',
max(B) 'Move-In Date',max(C) 'Check Date'"
)
On J15 write Amount
On J16 add the following formula
=ArrayFormula(vlookup(G16:G19&I16:I19,{A2:A11&C2:C11,D2:D11},2,0))

Using sum within google spreadsheet query results in the word "sum" in many cells

I am trying to get the some of all values in row B that contain a certain value in row A. Pretty simple problem I guess.
Here is my query:
=QUERY('Sheet1'!$A$16:D, "Select sum(D) Where C contains '"&C5&"' ", -1)
But what that gives me is the actual word "sum" in all the fields where C contains the value.
So I get a lot of "sum" in almost all my rows.
Did the "sum" statement change for queries in google spreadsheets?
It looks like you are using more than one query formula: apparently there is a column with query, each referring to a cell such as C5. In this case there is no room for column label "sum" that the formula wants to insert: the output must be a single cell. Solution: change the column label to empty string with label sum(D) ''.
=QUERY('Sheet1'!$A$16:D, "Select sum(D) Where C contains '"&C5&"' label sum(D) ''", -1)
