I am trying to use the QUERY function on a list of Google Form responses to only display the most recent of unique entries(based on the key Student ID).
A = Timestamp Column
C = Student ID Column
Using:
select max(A)
group by C
I was able to get the right entries, but only one column for each(I want all the data, the whole row, from the right entries)
So I tried using:
select max(A),B,C,D,E,F,G,H
group by C
But this gives an error
Unable to parse query string for Function QUERY parameter 2:
ADD_COL_TO_GROUP_BY_OR_AGGB
I am new to databases, first time using QUERY. Sorry if this is confusing, but maybe the sheet makes more sense:
spreadsheet
In addition to Chris' contribution and using QUERY():
=ArrayFormula(vlookup(query({row(Raw!A:A),sort(Raw!A:J)},
"select max(Col1) where Col4 is not null group by Col4 label max(Col1)''",0),
{row(Raw!A:A),sort(Raw!A:J)},{2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11},1))
Does this formula work as you want:
={Raw!A1:J1;FILTER(Raw!A2:J,MMULT((Raw!C2:C=TRANSPOSE(Raw!C2:C))*(Raw!A2:A<TRANSPOSE(Raw!A2:A)),SIGN(ROW(Raw!A2:A)))=0)}

I am trying to query a table and the 2 first columns should be used as reference, where the second column (user) should be unique as reference in the column A and the other columns should be summarized.
This is my table:
enter image description here
And I would like to be like this:
enter image description here
to do this I would like to create a formula that would query this data, like =SORT(QUERY(C17:K21,"SELECT SUM(A)...",0),1,true,2,false) but I am not getting the expected result, here is the google sheets link and thanks in advance to all.

tried to create a query formula
You can use a QUERY like this:
=QUERY(A1:I9,"SELECT A,B,SUM(E),SUM(F),SUM(G),SUM(H),SUM(I) group by A,B")
If you want to rename the headers, add at the end of the query: label SUM(E) 'VALUE_RECEIVED', SUM(F) 'Payable 10%' and so on
I have a list of email addresses in one sheet (first column).
I have a list of transactions in another sheet with emails and sale amounts.
I am looking for a formula that adds up all the transaction $ sales for any transactions made by the people (emails) in the first sheet.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Your sample data is very limited (only one row matching one person, in fact). But the following formula should work for you. Place it in a new sheet, in cell A1:
=ArrayFormula(IFERROR({"Name","Total"; QUERY(FILTER(Transactions!A2:D,NOT(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(Transactions!A2:A,Tags!A:A,1,FALSE)))),"Select Col2, SUM(Col4) GROUP BY Col2 ORDER BY Col2 LABEL SUM(Col4) '' ")},"No Data"))
This one formula will produce the headers (which you can change within the formula itself as desired) and all results.
FILTER filters in only 'Transactions' data (names through amounts) where the emails are found in the 'Tags' sheet.
Then QUERY returns the name and totals for each match in alphabetical order by name.
If there are no matches, "No Data" will show instead.
If I understood your question correctly!
Try this on the sheet, where you only have emails and wanted to get sum of sales amount
=sumifs(range_whichHasTransaction , range_of_Email_inThat_TransactionsTable , Cell_Reference_ofEmail_forWhich_you_want_sum_the_Transaction_Amount)
it will Look something like this:-
sumifs(TransactionSheet!B:B,TransactionSheet!A:A,Emails!A2)
Reference
SUMIFS
I have been working on this issue for a few weeks now and can't seem to find a solution. I used this answer (IMPORTRANGE with CONDITIONS) to get as far as I could, but I keep getting a value error.
This is the sheet I'm working with.
My goal is to use the first tab in the sheet (All Games) to enter all the games that I come across to create a compendium. But, then I want it to automatically populate the other tabs based on certain criteria (what type of game, skills learned, etc.)
On the Warm-Ups tab you'll see the formulas I have tried. A1 is the most recent.
Here is the formula I tried:
=QUERY(IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F64PMg_iFu-DaJAUaE4BkpqF4zoteknp56VfwAUe8ag/edit#gid=1359689553", "All Games!A1:A1300"),"SELECT Col1 WHERE (Col2 = 'w') ")
I am getting a value error:
Unable to parse query string for Function QUERY parameter 2: NO_COLUMN: Col2
you are trying to reference Col2 but you selected range A1:A1300 which is just 1 column. therefore try:
=QUERY(IMPORTRANGE("1F64PMg_iFu-DaJAUaE4BkpqF4zoteknp56VfwAUe8ag", "All Games!A1:B1300"),
"SELECT Col1 WHERE (Col2 = 'w') ")
from the brief look on your sheet, you may want use matches or contains instead of = in your QUERY
You are only importing (part of) ColumnA - so no wonder Google can't find a second column :)
I am trying to generate a table for the Gantt chart. Table should have this format:
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/ganttchart#data-format
So,I need task name the same like taks ID, but in Query I can't use Col1 twice (I get error)
=QUERY({Tab1;Tab1};"select Col1,Col1,Col5,Col16,Col17 WHERE Col16>now() ORDER BY Col5 DESC,Col17 ";0)
The second point is that it is also not possible to merge two columns as a result, so it doesn't work:
=QUERY({Tab1;Tab1};"select Col1+Col7,Col1,Col5,Col16,Col17 WHERE Col16>now() ORDER BY Col5 DESC,Col17 ";0)
Here is my data and 2 results what I neet to get by QUERY
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CZYgfYo6oIeONZOH6ZR5rOW615HuH4ICaoe7lj0dapw/edit#gid=0
These are such trivial things in a real SQL, is there no way to do it somehow straightforwardly in Google Query? So far I have found a combination of QUERY and ARRAYFORMULA but then there are very complicated queries - mutants. Not easier?
You don't need Query, just Arrays.
You will get the first result from this code:
={ARRAYFORMULA(B3:B&" "&C3:C)\A3:A}
The second result from this code:
={A3:A\A3:A\B3:B1}
Based on your example I assume that you are not using US spreadsheet settings.
If so formulas have to be change to:
First:
={ARRAYFORMULA(B3:B&" "&C3:C),A3:A}
Second:
={A3:A,A3:A,B3:B}

I see that in your real sheet you would like to compare some data with now(). You can easily do this using array I propose as a source to Query. There will you have something like this (of course now it will not work - its only an example - an array have only 2 columns, not 15):
=QUERY({ARRAYFORMULA(B3:B10&" "&C3:C10)\A3:A10};"select * where Col15>now()";0)
About Query - you can't perform arthmetic operations on column containing strings. Look at the documentation: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/querylanguage#arithmetic-operators
"I can't use Col1 twice (I get error)"
You can duplicate your indata that to solve this.
QUERY({Tab1 Column 1\Tab1 Column 1};"Select Col1, Col2......"
"Tab1 Column 1" is now Col1 and Col2
"The second point is that it is also not possible to merge two columns as a result, so it doesn't work:"
Yes, adding result of column is possible "select Col1+Col7......" is correct.
I use this Query formula in Google Spreadsheet to merge tables from many source sheets into one table:
=query({Data1!A4:B;Data2!A4:B;Data3!A4:B}; "select * where Col1 is not null")
To distinguish original tables in the merged table, I need to add new column to the merged table with their identification. The indentification string is in cells on every source sheet. How to do it?
This is example spreadsheet I prepared for tests. Copy it to your Google Drive to make changes please.

I suspect the simplest way is the "long-winded" add a column in each sheet (say a new "A") and populate that with the sheet name, so then a query like so:
=query({Data1!A4:C;Data2!A4:C;Data3!A4:C}; "select * where Col2 is not null")
Edit re Comment:
Not the layout required but at least differentiates the source without adding anything to the sources:
={query(Data1!A4:B,"select * where A is not NULL label A '"&Data1!B1&"'");query(Data2!A4:B,"select * where A is not NULL label A '"&Data2!B1&"'");query(Data3!A4:B,"where A is not NULL label A '"&Data3!B1&"'")}
