Google sheet formula:
=importJSON("https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/markets?vs_currency=usd&ids=bitcoin","0.current_price")
I want to replace the word bitcoin with value from another cell, say C3.
Here is my code that doesn't work (gives formula parse error):
=importJSON(=CONCATENATE("https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/markets?vs_currency=usd&ids=",$C3),"0.current_price")
