Here is a copy of the sheets and form (form > go to live)
https://docs.google.com/a/ncsu.edu/spreadsheets/d/1mEz9mLEgP4Cfts2ZU6NwhNiL6xjWdFbt42RUj-RYbZw/edit?usp=sharing
So currently, I get responses in a different sheet. Ideally, I would get the response on the tracking sheet with the appropriate format for the dates. Additionally, I would like to keep the functionality of the tracking sheet which is to be able add in items by hand and not through the form. I currently have a script in place which auto-inputs the current date as the two separate formats.
So I'm looking for a solution which either takes in form response to the sheet and appropriate cells (the first empty cell). Or I'm looking to create a script which onEdit which when the form sheet is edited, will fetch the new response and copy it over appropriately onto the tacking sheet.
I have tried googling answers.. But I think I may be a failure at it since I wasn't able to really find a solution for this particular problem. Thank you in advance for the help!
form:

The script associated to this form should do the trick.
All the explanations on how to use it are in the response sheet

Good morning,
I have a spreadsheet that currently doesn't have any data in it, only headers.
If I put some dummy data in it, the fields are pulled in with no problem and charts display properly in google studio dash. However, if I remove the data and keep only the headers (waiting for the user to input data entry), all the charts utilizing the particular sheet show 'Chart Configuration Incomplete'. When I view the data source and refresh it, it states all the fields are missing. Only if there is an entry in addition to the headers, the fields show and charts work as expected. Is there a way around this by chance? Why can't the charts just show blank? I have the 'First Row as Headers' selected.
Try adding a row of dummy data (so all the fields will be added to your source) but then adding a report filter to exclude that entry from the report. You are correct that Data Studio won’t recognize empty fields when creating the data source.
I am trying to use importXML or importHTML function to retrieve a stock options chain, specifically using this function to get a table. So far, this is what I have:
=importhtml("https://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/quickchart/options.asp?symb=TSLA","table",3)
The problem I'm getting is that I can't retrieve "hidden" tables. For example, if you go on the website: https://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/quickchart/options.asp?symb=TSLA
If you scroll down on this page the hidden tables would only be revealed if you click on ,"show april 2022", "show may 2022", etc. I am trying to retrieve all of this information.
The end result is that I would like to create a table that looks like this:
https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/tsla/put-call-ratios
And a table that looks like this:
https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/TSLA/options?moneyness=10&view=stacked&expiration=2022-04-14-m
As a result, there are two things that I am trying to create, the above tables shown on barchart.
I have tried to use importHTML or importXML on barchart, but it looks like it's not allowed. If there is a way to directly retrieve the information from barchart, that would be a much better solution rather than having to import all of the data separately using a different website.
Please note, that I do have a beginner knowledge, so a step-by-step solution on what to do would be very helpful. Thank you
I cannot get an entire table to populate with ImportXML. At best I get the first column and I cannot figure this out.
The website I am trying to scrape is: https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills
Do I have any options to retrieve the table rather it be column by column or as a whole?
I have tried all the following plus several others.
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//table[#id='boss-table-1010']/tbody/tr")
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//tbody/tr")
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//tbody/tr/td")
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//tr")
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//tr/td")
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//tr/td[1]")
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills","//tr/td[2]")
Anything outside of column one says Imported content is empty. Please help!
P.S. I have scoured this website and google for answers and every case I find seems to be a syntax error, starting at the table itself doesn't return the entire table which tells me I need a clever method.
It seems that's an issue with the website, because when you click on Inspect you can see the table with id "boss-table-1010" but if you click on View Source that ID is not available, so the table is dynamically rendered and Sheets doesn't find such id.
I've checked it and I can get the data by doing
=IMPORTXML("https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/kromcrush/chills", "//table/tbody//td")
But if you want a more robust solution, it'll be better doing it programmatically by using Python for web scraping
I have a column of URLs that is created automatically when a Google Form is submitted using the "Add Form Edit Response URLs" script. What I would like to do is copy that link to another sheet and wrap it in text. Like this [EDIT] , but automatically with every link in the column. I know I can do it with =HYPERLINK("https://urllink", "Edit"), but I want it to happen automatically down the entire column as new entries are added.
Thanks!
I figured it out: =ArrayFormula(IF(N2:N="","",(hyperlink(N2:N,"EDIT"))))
I have a database of elements, each element has its own QR Code. After reading the code I would like to be able to open the worksheet on a specific tab and jump to the appropriate cell (according to the element name). Calling a worksheet through a URL with the #gid parameter allows you to open a tab.... the "range" parameter allows you to jump to a specific cell.... and what if I want to search for an item by name? Something like: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fER4x1p.../edit#gid=82420100&search=element_name.... is it possible?
Google has not introduced this yet
But you can look into Google Script (Googles SpreadSheets macros like) to achieve this.
Also a simpler approach will be to just filter the data, but this will change your requirement obviously. For example you can create a Filter with the name you are looking for and then you will get the URL.
This is the URL to a Sample of this, it should open the
Spreadsheet and filter the data when loaded. This is the Icon to
look for to create the filters
here is some documentation for you to get started on Google App Script, but I don't have a direct link to let you know how to catch the parameters for it to process them. What I can tell you is that this is a much more complicated approach than just a URL because it involves programmatic processing on the Spreadsheet side.
