I used the following approach from this answer:
First go to the spreadsheet that you want to import the data from
(docA)
and observe the value of the key mentioned in the URL (Eg: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=ABC#gid=0, in this case the key isABC
).Now go to the cell in
docB
and use theimportRange
function to import the data.=importRange(, !:) Eg: =importRange("ABC", "Sheet1!A1:B10")
If you want to import just one cell: E.g.
=importRange("ABC", "Sheet1!A1");
If you don't mention the name of the sheet, the first sheet is used.
it was very helpful i used this featured and Google prompted a notification that
There was a problem At this time, spreadsheets in Google Sheets only support up to 50 ImportRange functions in a single spreadsheet.
Any Solution ???

Switch to New Sheets.
