VLOOKUP Function | Smartsheet Learning Center
https://help.smartsheet.com/function/vlookupLooks up a value and returns a corresponding value in the same row but from a different column.
I have a large sheet where I would like to copy the data from just 7 columns to another sheet once the data in one of the columns matches the criteria needed.
For example:
Copy the data from the following columns to NewSheet once the Group column says October 2021.
Position Accepted, ID, FName, LName, Instructor, Email, Group

Vlookup might work. I really want the new sheet data to be pulled/updated from the main sheet instead of a helper sheet to make sure any updates are reflected in both sheets.
I'll research vlookup. I've never used that before.
Excellent!
I'd recommend using INDEX/MATCH if possible because it's more secure and flexible.
The structure would be something like this.
=INDEX({ColumnWithTheValueYouWantToShow}; MATCH(CellThatHaveTheValueToMatch@row; {ColumnWithTheValueToMatchAgainsTheCell}; 0))
Depending on your country/region, you'll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
More info.
