Unable to parse query string for Function QUERY parameter 2: PARSE_ERROR: Encountered " <ID> "s "" at line 1, column 2168
My exact formula below used to work previously and without changing anything except adding more data to my master table whereby 'Premium Advertisers' is populated, I get the following error:
"Unable to parse query string for Function QUERY parameter 2: PARSE_ERROR: Encountered " "s "" at line 1, column 2168."
Please see my query below, doesn't make sense why it's picking up an error in the 2168th character of my select statement. I've tried only using a small sample of my master data table and I still get the same error.
=QUERY('Premium Advertisers'!A2:G, "select * where A matches '" & "^" & textjoin("$|^", true, 'Premium Advertisers'!I2:I) & "$' ",0)
Solution
you got there a name which contains ' (Hill's Pet Nutrition South Africa (Pty) Limited). therefore try:
=INDEX(SUBSTITUTE(QUERY(SUBSTITUTE('Premium Advertisers'!A2:G, "'", "♦"),
"where Col1 matches '^"&TEXTJOIN("$|^", 1,
SUBSTITUTE('Premium Advertisers'!I2:I, "'", "♦"))&"$'", ),
"♦", "'"))
update
we also need to skip reserved regex characters like parenthesis () with \(\)
=FILTER(A:D, REGEXMATCH(A:A, TEXTJOIN("|", 1,
SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(I2:I, "(", "\("), ")", "\)"))))
