The following examples show how to use a concatenate if formula in Google Sheets.
Example 1: Concatenate If (By Column)
Suppose we have the following data in Google Sheets:
We can use the following formula to concatenate cells in column A and B only if the value in column B is equal to “Good”:
=CONCATENATE(IF(B2="Good", A2:B2, ""))
The following screenshot shows how to use this formula in practice:
If the cell in column B is equal to “Good” then the value in column C is equal to the concatenation of the cells in column A and B.
Otherwise, this formula simply returns a blank value.
Note: You can find the complete documentation for the CONCATENATE function in Google Sheets here.
Example 2: Concatenate If (By Row)
Once again suppose we have the following data in Google Sheets:
We can use the following formula to concatenate all of the cells in column A where the value in column B is equal to “Good”:
=ARRAYFORMULA(TEXTJOIN("",FALSE,IF(B2:B7="Good",A2:A7,"")))
The following screenshot shows how to use this formula in practice:
Notice that the value in cell C2 is the result of concatenating every value in column A where the corresponding value in column B is equal to “Good.”
