FILTER Formula for Lookup
Return rows matching criteria (dynamic filter). Copy-paste ready for Excel, Google Sheets, and Airtable.
=FILTER(A1:D100,B1:B100>50)When you need this: When you need to show only orders exceeding $50 (amount in B1:B100) from your full order table (A1:D100).
How it works
- 1Specify the array to filter (A1:D100 = all columns).
- 2Define the filter criterion (B1:B100>50 = amount greater than $50).
- 3FILTER returns only matching rows, updating dynamically as data changes.
Variations

=FILTER(A1:D100,(B1:B100>50)*(C1:C100="Complete"))FILTER with OR condition
=FILTER(A1:D100,(B1:B100="NY")+(B1:B100="CA"))Related Formulas
