Lookups in Google Sheets - google-sheets

I am trying to use a sort of lookup to carry some data across from one sheet to the next. I have a form responses sheet collecting subjects a student would like to choose and from this, I have worked out how to split these choices into separate columns.
I then need this data taken to a second sheet where the split subjects are matched to the identical headings and a Y is put in the corresponding column for each corresponding student.
Is this possible?

try:
=ARRAYFORMULA(SUBSTITUTE(IFERROR(HLOOKUP(C1:1, IFNA(VLOOKUP(A1:A,
QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN({'Form Responses 1'!B2:B&"×"&
IFERROR(SPLIT('Form Responses 1'!C2:C, ", ", ))}), "×"),
"select Col1,count(Col1) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 pivot Col2 label Col1 'Email'"),
SEQUENCE(1, 1+COUNTUNIQUE(FLATTEN(SPLIT(TEXTJOIN(", ", 1, 'Form Responses 1'!C2:C), ", ", )))), 0)),
IF(A2:A="",,ROW(A2:A)), 0)), 1, "Y"))

How to count values if option checked is selected in one cell

I have a spreadsheet where users fill out a form, they have multiple options they can pick by clicking the checkboxes.
The responses sheets looks like this
I want to filter the results by option, so my main goal is to get the total amount of options selected:
I've been trying with COUNTIF but it's not working because I'm not selecting the specific response
=COUNTIF('Form Responses 1'!C2:F4,"*"&$B$1&"*")
I'm assuming I need to add a VLOOKUP but I'm not sure how to match it with the option
Here's a spreadsheet to play around with it
try:
=INDEX({QUERY(TRIM(SPLIT(FLATTEN(A2:A&"×"&SPLIT(B2:B, ",")), "×")),
"select Col1,count(Col1) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 pivot Col2 label Col1 'Person'");
{"Total", TRANSPOSE(MMULT(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(QUERY(TRIM(SPLIT(FLATTEN(A2:A&"×"&SPLIT(B2:B, ",")), "×")),
"select count(Col1) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 pivot Col2"), "offset 1", )*1),
SEQUENCE(COUNTUNIQUE(TRIM(FLATTEN(SPLIT(TEXTJOIN(",", 1, B2:B), ",")))), 1, 1, )))}})
Perhaps a formula like this:
=IFNA(QUERY({$A$2:$A$6, $B$2:$B$6}, "Select 1 where Col2 contains '"&B$9&"' and Col1 = '"&$A10&"' order by Col1 label 1 ''"), 0)
This outputs a 1 if the referenced cell contains the specified text, and a 0 otherwise. See the docs for the Query Function and the Query Language for more information.

how to import rows that contain the same value more than once to another sheet

I have a list of sessions, I want to be able to import the ones that have been rescheduled (along with the new rescheduled session) to another sheet. So under colC one will say 'Rescheduled' and the other will say 'Attended'. So what I'd like to do is grab the participant name, but only if it shows up more than once, so I'd get both the rescheduled session and the new session. I tried using importrange and query, but couldn't quite get it right. How can I do this?

try:
=INDEX(REGEXEXTRACT(FLATTEN(QUERY(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(QUERY({
IMPORTRANGE("10ZWcO9DeBx6KjiyvFvcoBlGk7yw2b8z2gFPi26orOGc", "Sheet1!A1:C"),
FLATTEN(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(
IMPORTRANGE("10ZWcO9DeBx6KjiyvFvcoBlGk7yw2b8z2gFPi26orOGc", "Sheet1!A1:C")),,9^9))},
"select max(Col4) where Col1 is not null group by Col2 pivot Col3")),
"where Col1 matches 'Rescheduled|Attended'", )),
"where Col1 is not null and Col2 is not null"),
"offset 1", )),
"(\d+/\d+/\d+) (.*) (Att.*|Res.*)"))
Formula Explanation:
Take the IMPORTRANGE
Merge all columns into one column
Create a virtual array {}
Pass into QUERY and pivot the data
Transpose the result
Use query to get only needed columns
Transpose back
Compare 1st and 2nd columns and remove
Remove header row
Flatten data into one column and split into the 3 needed columns
and if that's not enough:
=INDEX(REGEXREPLACE(SORT(TEXT(REGEXEXTRACT(FLATTEN(
QUERY(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(QUERY({
IMPORTRANGE("10ZWcO9DeBx6KjiyvFvcoBlGk7yw2b8z2gFPi26orOGc", "Sheet1!A1:C"),
FLATTEN(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(
IMPORTRANGE("10ZWcO9DeBx6KjiyvFvcoBlGk7yw2b8z2gFPi26orOGc", "Sheet1!A1:C")),,9^9))},
"select max(Col4) where Col1 is not null group by Col2 pivot Col3")),
"where Col1 matches 'Rescheduled|Attended'", )),
"where Col1 is not null and Col2 is not null"),
"offset 1", )),
"(\d+/\d+/\d+) (.*) (Att.*|Res.*)"), {
"yyyymmdd\×m/d/yyyy", "#", "#"}), 2, 0, 1, 1), "^(\d+×)", ))

how to count values, if they fall under a separate category and within a group

Columns D:H show my initial info, where two workstreams (Column D) have different issues occur (Column F:H). These issues fall under one of three categories, under Columns A:B. I want the chart to show the count of the category each issues falls under, making sure it's also showing that it's within a certain workstream.
what i was working with so far is below to match issues to the three categories
=INDEX(A:B, MATCH(F1, A:A, 0), 2)
and below to count the times a value is within the workstream group (A or B).
=countif(flatten(filter(F:H,D:D="A")),"one")
How can I combine these two?

Google Sheets complex array from multiple sheets

I am looking to build a formula that will check columns for a true value and if true return the first column name, in order...
Below is the formula I have been trying to build but it is not working as expected although I think I am close.
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(HLOOKUP($A16,{Sheet1!$B$2:$E$5,Sheet2!$B$8:$E$11},{3,4,5},0)=TRUE,{Sheet2!$A$3:$A$5,Sheet1!$A$3:$A5,""))
Let me illustrate. Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 contain names with who has what (checkbox items). With a formula in cell B16 that will populate both to the right and down with all the names that contain a TRUE value in the looked up value (A:A).
Above image was manually typed in, the formula does not work at all.
Please help!
EDIT: Link to sheet
try:
=INDEX(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A14:A, SUBSTITUTE(REGEXREPLACE(SPLIT(FLATTEN(
QUERY(SUBSTITUTE(QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(
IF({B3:E5; B9:E11}=TRUE,
{B2:E2&"♦"&A3:A5&"♣"&ROW(A3:A5);
B8:E8&"♦"&A9:A11&"♣"&ROW(A9:A11)}, )), "♦"),
"select max(Col2) where Col2 is not null group by Col2 pivot Col1"),
" ", "♥"),,9^9)), " "), "(♣\d+)", ), "♥", " "),
SEQUENCE(1, COUNTUNIQUE(B2:E2, B8:E8))+1, 0)))
demo sheet
Here is another approach (similar to player0's, but different enough to warrant the separate answer:
=ArrayFormula(IFERROR(TRIM(SPLIT(VLOOKUP(FILTER(A3:A,A3:A<>""),REGEXREPLACE(SPLIT(FLATTEN(QUERY(QUERY(SPLIT(QUERY(FLATTEN({IF(Sheet1!B2:E<>TRUE,,Sheet1!B1:E1&"~|"&Sheet1!A2:A&",");IF(Sheet2!B2:E<>TRUE,,Sheet2!B1:E1&"~|"&Sheet2!A2:A&",")}),"Select * WHERE Col1 Is Not Null"),"|"), "Select MAX(Col2) where Col2 IS NOT NULL GROUP BY Col2 PIVOT Col1"),, 9^9)),"~"),"[,\s]+$",""),2,FALSE),","))))
I've added it into your spreadsheet in a new sheet ("Erik Help").
If you have more than two sheets' to include, just find this section of the formula and continue the pattern:
{ IF(Sheet1!B2:E<>TRUE,,Sheet1!B1:E1&"~|"&Sheet1!A2:A&","); IF(Sheet2!B2:E<>TRUE,,Sheet2!B1:E1&"~|"&Sheet2!A2:A&",") }

Finding the top 3 values and returning the column ID

Thank you beforehand for your kind response.
Problem: I am trying to do a sheet to sort out the 3 top categories of a given range as shown by the attached screen grab.
enter image description here
I only managed to get the results by using the "large" command. "=large(range,n)". Using this I got the value but what I need is the column index/id rather than the numeric values.
Any ideas on how I would go about achieving this?
Thanks for your reply.
Try the following maybe:
Formula in G2:
=TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE({A$1:E$1;A2:E2}),"Select Col1 Order by Col2 desc limit 3"))
It's definitely possible in arrayformula.
Using vlookup, a sequence of numbers for the search key:
=arrayformula(sequence(max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1,columns(A:E)))
...and a range of columns that are sorted by each row of numbers:
=arrayformula({
sequence((max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1)*columns(A1:E1)),
sort({
array_constrain(int((row(A2:A)-2)/(columns(A:E)))+1,(max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1)*columns(A1:E1),1),
array_constrain(iferror(split(flatten(if(A2:E<>"",A1:E1&char(9999),)&A2:E),char(9999)),),(max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1)*columns(A1:E1),2)
},1,1,3,0)
})
The final formula for the solution, in cell G2:
=arrayformula(
array_constrain(
vlookup(
sequence(max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1,columns(A:E)),
{sequence((max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1)*columns(A1:E1)),sort({array_constrain(int((row(A2:A)-2)/(columns(A:E)))+1,(max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1)*columns(A1:E1),1),array_constrain(iferror(split(flatten(if(A2:E<>"",A1:E1&char(9999),)&A2:E),char(9999)),),(max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1)*columns(A1:E1),2)},1,1,3,0)}
,3,0),
max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1,3)
)
It will work with blank cells in some of the rows.
The width of the source data is determined by:
=columns(A1:E1)
and the height of the source 'numbers' by:
=max(if(A:E<>"",row(A:A),))-1 (it needs to sit within an arrayformula).
you may use this superior formula:
=ARRAYFORMULA(ARRAY_CONSTRAIN(IFERROR(SPLIT(FLATTEN(SPLIT(QUERY(FILTER(
QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(IF(A2:E="",,ROW(A2:A)&"×"&A2:E&"×"&A1:E1)), "×"),
"select Col3 where Col2 is not null order by Col1,Col2 desc"), COUNTIFS(
QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(IF(A2:E="",,ROW(A2:A)&"×"&A2:E&"×"&A1:E1)), "×"),
"select Col1 where Col2 is not null order by Col1,Col2 desc"),
QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(IF(A2:E="",,ROW(A2:A)&"×"&A2:E&"×"&A1:E1)), "×"),
"select Col1 where Col2 is not null order by Col1,Col2 desc"),
SEQUENCE(COUNTA(A2:E), 1, ROW(A2)), "<="&SEQUENCE(COUNTA(A2:E), 1, ROW(A2)))<4)&
FLATTEN(IFERROR(SEQUENCE(MAX((A2:E<>"")*ROW(A2:A)), 3)*
{"a", "a", 0})),,9^9), 0)), " ")), 9^9, 3))
