XLOOKUP function

 

How does the XLOOKUP function work in Microsoft Excel?

To explain the XLOOKUP function properly, we’ll use an example scenario. An example Excel spreadsheet contains the staff list of a small company, containing IDs, names, email addresses, and responsibilities.

An Excel spreadsheet containing four columns of data: Employee ID, Name, Email address, and Job Role

A dataset, such as this one, can be used as a searchable directory in Excel using an XLOOKUP formula. A search value for this formula could contain any of the values above, from an ID number to an email address.

XLOOKUP can find a value (matching in full or the closest approximation) from a range of cells (or search array) and return it. To do this, a formula using XLOOKUP has a number of arguments that need to be used to create the query.

An Excel spreadsheet containing four columns of data: Employee ID, Name, Email, and Job Role. In this example, the XLOOKUP function has been used to locate a particular employee within the data.
