Want a way to look up a user and retrieve data
Hi there,
I'm looking to use the sheets to allow a user to look up their data using their data.
For example, steve@steve.com inputs his email and sees that he has completed X courses and earned X points. Each course and points total would be a different cell in the sheet.
Is this possible?
Thanks

Steve, if you are good with Excel formulas and can figure out a formula for that - then, in theory, you can use SheetsSet to write a formula to a cell and then use SheetsGet to retrieve the calculated value.

Props for your formula writing skills! Not many people would be able to pull it off.

Hello. You can look into the VLOOKUP function https://support.google.com/docs/answer/3093318?hl=en and also maybe Steve has any suggestions.

In the JavaScript trigger you will do:
SheetsSet('Formula', '=VLOOKUP....');
SheetsGet('Formula', 'varname');

So you are writing a formula to a cell titled "Formula," the value gets calculated as you do it, and then you read the calculated result and save it to a Storyline variable "varname."

If you need more help, please consider starting a new thread so we don't spam Steve with all these messages.
