How to display #REF! (You need to connect these sheets) when using IFERROR to display Blank Cell
I understand that Google Sheets must be explicitly granted permission to pull data from other spreadsheets using IMPORTRANGE
However, when using IFERROR alongside VLOOKUP to display the value argument has a blank cell - How do you still allow for the #REF! (You need to connect these sheets) to be displayed?
I appreciate that as a workaround I could just display a "." but I'm curious if it's possible to legitimately without a workaround display a blank cell with no valid result but still allow for #REF! (You need to connect these sheets) to be displayed?
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(Meta!$A$12,IMPORTRANGE(""&$M31&"","Template!$A$1:$H$6"),7, false), "")
Solution
This would decrease performance, probably by a lot, but I think this (or something similar) would technically work:
=if(1+0*importrange(...),iferror(vlookup(...)))
