Import data from another spreadsheet

If you keep data in separate Google Sheets, copy a range of data from one spreadsheet to another with the IMPORTRANGE function. For example, you may track quarterly sales data for a product in a different spreadsheet for each region. To combine all that quarterly sales data, copy the data from each region's spreadsheet into a single spreadsheet using IMPORTRANGE.

Use the IMPORTRANGE function

In Sheets, open a spreadsheet. In an empty cell, enter =IMPORTRANGE. In parenthesis, add the following specifications in quotation marks and separated by a comma*: The URL of the spreadsheet in Sheets. The sheet name (optional) and the range of cells to import. *Note: If you are in a Spanish-speaking country, use the semicolon as a separator instead of the comma. Press Enter. Click Allow access to connect the 2 spreadsheets. For example: To import cells A1 through C10 from sheet 1 of the abcd123abcd123 spreadsheet, you enter: =IMPORTRANGE("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/abcd123abcd123", "sheet1!A1:C10")
