I am trying to use VLOOKUP function between two different sheets in two different spreadsheets.
In the "range" parameter of VLOOKUP I have inserted a range via IMPORTRANGE(different_spreadsheet_url, range_string) and I got null value, although the value that I search for is appear in the input range.
I think there is some problem with using IMPORTRANGE inside VLOOKUP but I can't figure it out.
I would be happy if anyone can help me with this or suggest another way to solve my issue.
Thanks.

You have quite the unusual problem for the following reasons:
You want to use a VLOOKUP, but select a column to the left, which VLOOKUP doesn't like.
You can't use the usual INDEX-MATCH workaround because you want to use an ArrayFormula, which works with VLOOKUP, but not INDEX.
So what we need to do is swap the columns from your source sheet before using VLOOKUP. We can achieve this with a QUERY and select the Columns in reverse, like so:
=ArrayFormula(VLOOKUP(FILTER(A:A,A:A),Query(IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nGI6-Vwv_zX-0DfN8zFwVYJTd00iXY3HLcSlU_rjhEo/edit#gid=0","example1!A:B"),"select Col2,Col1"),2,0))
Or more readably:
=ArrayFormula(
VLOOKUP(
FILTER(A:A,A:A),
Query(
IMPORTRANGE(
"https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nGI6-Vwv_zX-0DfN8zFwVYJTd00iXY3HLcSlU_rjhEo/edit#gid=0",
"example1!A:B"
),
"select Col2,Col1"
),
2,
0
)
)
I also went ahead and used all non-blanks of column A using FILTER as well, so you can expand your data if needed.

Here's the sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TbPKehggzCGWy6LyEuzHZc5RouBHhyju35bqIGpInhM/edit#gid=14120435
I know how to transpose the data in colA (=Transpose(A2:A)). I know how to write an array formula to output the data i'd like (F1), but I'd like to nest the Transpose formula into the formula in F1 so that as items are added to colA, the table on the right populates with the header rows relying on the values in A2:A and the data as it is in ColF
You could try:
=ARRAYFORMULA(LET(header,TOROW(A2:A,1),{header;IF(D2:D="",,E2:E*VLOOKUP(header,A:B,2,))}))
Or:
=ARRAYFORMULA(LET(header,TRANSPOSE(FILTER(A2:A,A2:A<>"")),{header;IF(D2:D="",,E2:E*VLOOKUP(header,A:B,2,))}))

I want to display the values according to the text that which is comes in the drop-down list. one of my friends from this platform helped me to develop that. But that function is only displaying based on two texts. can I add it one more text to generate details?
Here I'm adding the sheet for more clarification. Take a look and you will understand what I need. I want to display which comes under "insurance claim" when we select yes/no.

You just need to add the and F contains '"&$C2&"'" to your current formula on the cell A5 of the sheet RESULTS.
For more details please see the Query documentation
Your cell A5 will become this:
=query(LIST!A1:G,"Select * where B contains '"&$A2&"' and C contains '"&$B2&"' and F contains '"&$C2&"'")
If you want to have the values of both sheets in your RESULTS sheet, you can add the other sheet to the range of the query:
=query({LIST!A1:G;LIST2!A1:G},"Select * where Col2 contains '"&$A2&"' and Col3 contains '"&$B2&"' and Col6 contains '"&$C2&"'")

Hell,
I encountered one problem while combining different sheets(tabs) into one master sheet, e.g I have three sheets named Cola, Pepsi & Thumbsup, I consolidated their results all in my Master sheet using Query formula with null. Whenever anyone entered data in Cola, Pepsi & Thumbsup sheet it comes to my master sheet somewhere in Between the rows. I need it to comes queue wise, is it possible?
The problem I faced is, I am writing a remark on my master sheet on each entry so whenever someone added new data in Cola, Pepsi & Thumbsup it inserted in between the data and break the sequence of my remarks.
The remark I wrote for e.g Cola 103 it shift to cola 102 when someone enters new data in cola sheet.
About the query, it just displays the values. It's kind of impossible to control as your mention. I recommend to use app-script (macro), function append or getValue setValue or getRange copyto as text paste not just display
If your data have timestamp each row. It might work, sort by depending on date and time added. Need to use just one column sorted. In function query ...order by A asc
Anyways, I still recommend to use app-script (macro)

On Sheet2 I am wanting to show all the columns associated with a specific string that comes from a dropdown data validation. I have tried using VLOOKUP but that only outputs the first entry found, I want to print every entry along the row.
I put an example of what I am trying to get it to look like but not sure if VLOOKUP or QUERY or FILTER or something else is what I need
In your example spreadsheet, sheet 2, delete everything in the range F3:I and then enter in F3
=query(A:D, "where D='"&F2&"'",1)
If you want to reference the data on the sheet you'll have to use
=query('Draft Board'!A:D, "where D='"&F2&"'",1)
See if that works ?

On K250 cell I've this put a formula so that when user submit data via form formula will work.
=VLOOKUP(F250,Available!$C$1:$E$72,3,false))
But problem is when someone submit a form, row K250 is getting down as K251 & submitted form taking palce K250. I've found some other guys are talking about using Array. I've tried this one but didn't work.
=arrayformula(VLOOKUP(F250,Available!$C$1:$E$72,3,false))
Whats the solution?
If i understood your problem correctly then do this:
Instead of giving a fixed range , use name ranges to avoid this problem.
To access name ranges you can use F3 key while typing vlookup.
Following are some screenshots to help you out.
It should work even your cells shift towards down, if the shifting is happening towards right then you might want to select the entire sheet to avoid confusion.
Hope this helps to solve your problem.
When a form submission is made in Google Sheets, a new row is inserted in the sheet receiving the form submissions, and yes, this will "push down" any formulae that were previously in that row.
And yes, one solution is to use an array formula. Something like this could be entered in row 1:
=ArrayFormula(IF(ROW(F:F)=1;"Column Header";IFERROR(VLOOKUP(F:F;Available!$C$1:$E$72;3*SIGN(ROW(F:F));0)))
Multivalue Parallel Lookup Solution
Note: if this answer is in the right ballpark, I will try and edit your question and tags accordingly.
