VLookup multiple Results on Google Sheets - google-sheets

Im Trying to Filter a list with Listitems and their Properties in Google Sheets. For that I normally use Vlookup. Now I know that Vlookup only shows the first result, is there a way to find multiples and combine them into a comma seperated list?
Heres an Example:

Try
=textjoin(", ",,filter(B:B,A:A="China"))

Potentially complicated formula with FILTER, VLOOKUP and multiple sheets

I am looking at using a filter to pull data from one Google sheet automatically to another Google Sheet.
The problem is, some of the values in the cells contain "," which mismatch my vlookups.
I have figured out the formula I need to automatically filter this, but I can't wrap my head around how to insert it with a filter formula.
EDIT: The below formulas are on a separate sheet to Data1 & Data2 called "Filter Sheet"
Here are the two formulas I'd like to combine:
=filter('Data2'!C2:C,'Data2'!A2:A="uk")
This one cleans up the values with "," in them:
if(REGEXMATCH(A8,","),iferror(VLOOKUP(index(split(A8,",",1),1,1),'Data1'!A2:A,1,0),iferror(VLOOKUP(index(split(A8,",",1),1,2),'Data1'!A2:A,1,0),false)))
**EDIT:The formula above looks to a different sheet (Data1) to see if the "split" result matches the VLOOKUP on the current sheet. If it does not then it goes through a loop to finally find a match on Data1 Sheet.
Essentially, I want the second statement to**
How do I insert this "clean up formula" so it can work with the filter formula values?
EDIT: How can I combine the filter formula with the "if(regex etc. formula" based on the conditions set?
OR is there an easier way of doing this?
If this helps with an easier method:
The reason why I use a filter formula is because not everything in Data Sheet 1 is found in Data Sheet 2, so this smooths that process out.
Your help is greatly appreciated and thank you in advanced.
Try this formula directly
=filter(Data2!C2:C,REGEXEXTRACT(Data2!A2:A, " (uk)")="uk")

Filter Across Multiple Ranges Possible?

Using Google Sheets. I'm trying to pull information to another sheet if certain criteria exists (equals 1, 2, etc.). The filter I'm trying to use is:
=filter({TestData!A5:I30,TestData!B5:B30=2},{TestData!K5:S30,TestData!L5:L30=2})
Is it possible to filter data across multiple locations with one formula this way?
Google Sheets gives me a formula parse error.
use the QUERY formula, like this:
=QUERY({TestData!A5:I30; TestData!K5:S30}, "SELECT * where Col2=2")

Google Sheets: Use ArrayFormula for JoinText for multiple columns

I want to Use ArrayFormula for JoinText for multiple columns which have their own ArrayFormulas in Google Sheets.
My formula works for columns that have plain text values but for some reason Google Sheets gives me an error when I apply it to columns that have their own ArrayFormulas applied to them.
Take a look at the example sheet I've created HERE
Any help will be appreciated!
I hope this solution with query is helpful for you:
=ArrayFormula(transpose(query(transpose(C1:D),,2)))
(Will work faster if you know the limit of the range, e.g. C1:D10).
For implementing commas between the columns you can use
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(C1:C="",D1:D,if(D1:D="",C1:C,C1:C&", "&INDIRECT("D1:D"))))
I put this formula in cell I2 on your sample sheet. It should be relatively fast for many thousands of rows.
=ARRAYFORMULA(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(C2:C&CHAR(10)&D2:D),CHAR(10),", "))

Creating A Google Sheets Query From Two Tabs

I'm creating a google sheet where I want to display a Query on Sheet A, and have it look through data on Sheet B.
My sheets tabs names are the following:
Sheet A = List
Sheet B = Master Database
Currently, I'm using the following formula on Sheet A:
=SELECT(Sheet'Master Database'!A:K, WHERE 'Master Database'!C CONTAINS ‘”,'List'!B5,”‘”)
However, I'm getting Error, Formula parse error. Please help!
Thanks!
On Google Sheets, there isn't a built-in function called SELECT. To learn what are the available functions see Google Sheets Functions List. Maybe you are looking for QUERY function.
By the other hand the references and quotes are wrong. See Reference data from other sheets

How can I use nested formulas in the ARRAYFORMULA function in Google Sheets?

I need Google Sheets to compute sums for each row using the arrayformula() function.
I know I can manualy enter somthing like;
=ARRAYFORMULA(A:A + B:B + C:C)
but I need the use of the functions to do it.
I've tried many things including;
=ARRAYFORMULA(sum(A:A,C:C))
Here is a sample file that I could use help with.
This formula works in cell G3 of your test sheet:
=ArrayFormula(mmult(ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISBLANK(A3:C),0,A3:C)),sign(transpose(column(A3:C)))))
I've used a custom format to hide the zero values on the empty rows as well
Formulas
Addition (SUM)
QUERY function
=QUERY(A3:C20,"Select A+B+C Label A+B+C ''")
Concatenation
& operator
=ArrayFormula(J3:J20&K3:K20&L3:L20)
CONCAT function
=ArrayFormula(CONCAT(CONCAT(J3:J20,K3:K20),L3:L20))
Explanation
Besides ARRAYFORMULA, Google Sheets has QUERY, FILTER, ARRAY_CONSTRAIN, among other functions that could help you to handle array operations. Take a look to Function List to have the complete list. Also could be very helpful that you to take a look to Using arrays in Google Sheets.
