Im new to google sheets and might be doing this all wrong. Im trying to get information from another sheet by using the value from a cell in my current sheet.

In the current sheet, I have a column of IDs This is populated by looking at the Data sheet and finding "foo" and returning the row number

=MATCH("foo",Data!A:A,0)

This will return 2 for example

I would then like to use this number to reference a cell in data sheet

=Data!E2

I would thought it can be done with something like this

=Data!E=MATCH("foo",Data!A:A,0)

Can you give public access to the sheet shared below?Kessy

=INDIRECT("Data!E"&MATCH("foo", Data!A:A, 0))
