So I have two rows:
ID | TagDog | TagCat | TagChair | TagArm | Grouped Tags (need help with this) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | TRUE | TRUE | TagDog,TagArm |
Row 1 consists mainly of Tags, while rows 2+ are entries. This data ties ENTRIES to TAGS.
What I'm needing to do is concatenate/join the tag names per entry. For example, look at the last column above.
I suspect we could write a formula that would:
A
(IE: [A2,A4])join
them together by a commaBut I am unsure how to write the formula, or if this is even the best approach.
Here's the formula:
={
"Grouped Tags (need help with this)";
ARRAYFORMULA(
REGEXREPLACE(TRIM(
TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(
IF(NOT(B2:E11),, B1:E1)
),, COLUMNS(B1:E1)))
), "\s+", ",")
)
}
The trick used is called vertical query smash. That's the part:
TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(...),, Nnumber_of_columns))
