I have a number of google sheets that are updated automatically from bigquery through sheetgo that are shared with a lot of people. I want to stop updating some of these. Is there any way to check if a google sheet is used as a source through "importrange" to another google sheet?

I want to build a google sheet view , I thought since the data is already available in other google sheet for different purpose, would it be possible to pick up specific data from the sheet it exist to different google sheet.
You mean sheets in single spreadsheet or different spreadsheet?
If sheets, then you can take a range using curly brackets
={sheet1!A1:C100}
If spreadsheets then you can use importrange formula
=importrange("url of the spreadsheet","sheet1!A1:C100")
Is this what you are looking for?
I am trying to connect 2 Google sheets (a Check-in and a Check-out Google sheet) to feed data off a management sheet. I don't know what formula or function to use to connect the 2 sheets to feed off the management sheet.
you can use IMPORTRANGE:
=IMPORTRANGE("URL of spreadsheet", "Sheet name!A1:D")
note: it will first prompt you to allow access
I created a dashboard on Excel but want to move it to Google Sheets. How can I implement slicer like Excel on the spreadsheet?
I was using pivot in MS Excel with filters and slicers. I can replace slicer with some filters but in the spreadsheet, the filter isn't as handy as MS Excel and even dicer add-ons aren't functioning well. I am trying to replace it with data validation but that is making my dashboard extremely slow (Maybe because I can't find an efficient way). Can anyone suggest some combination of functions to create a slicer in Google spreadsheet? Any reading material recommendation regarding this?
For those who might land here after the question was originally answered:
Google Sheets now natively supports slicers.
Simply go to "Data" -> "Add a slicer" at the top menu.
See the documentation here: https://support.google.com/docs/answer/9245556
in Google Sheets, there are no Slicers but you can add an add-on to your Google Sheets called Dicers

I am trying to find a way to link several google forms to one google sheet without separate tabs. I am creating a database so I want different employees to be responsible for different sections of the same spreadsheet.
You need to use "IMPORTRANGE". I had to do that recently. https://support.google.com/docs/answer/3093340?hl=en You have to tell the receiving sheet what range of the feeder sheets to import and then give permission.The trick is, if someone adds columns to a feeder sheet, you have to make sure the data is not "overlapping" in the receiving sheet. Otherwise, you'll get an error.
I have Team of 15 people updating there data of call backs and other info in the Microsoft Excel
Now i want to use Google Sheets for Real time data. So i want all of them to use a Google Sheet and a Team leader should have the updates when ever they are updating the there own sheets. Everyone should have there own passwords to open there but an Admin should have access to all of there data in those sheets. I hope you understood my needs. I know its possible with Google Sheets but i don,t know how to prepare one as am new to this platform.
Please Help.
If you use
=importrange("sheet url", "range you want to import")
on a separate sheet, it will update dynamically as they change things - I have done this specifically with remote employees previously
