Google sheets formula to capture specific data












-1















Google sheets formula to capture specific data from a spreadsheet each month where the data changes each month:



Essentially, I want to capture the metrics on the last day of each month (to another sheet) while the data in the spreadsheet I'm pulling from will change every month.



My goal:



Capture metrics on 11/30
-->the metrics will then change in December
Capture all metric on 12/31
-->the metrics will then change in January.


Any help would be great!

          That can't be done by use a formula but it could be done by using Google Apps Script, more specifically by using an Apps Script function called by a time-driven trigger.

          • Thanks. The trigger function worked after creating a macro. Given the data points will change month to month - my macro also included to copy and paste the data as values only.
