Spreadsheet Lookup

Lookup values in spreadsheets based on keys.

Lookup values in spreadsheet data based on related text strings (keys). This could be useful, among other things, for creating design systems where many elements share common attributes. For example, in the table below, the key corner-radius would return a value of 10.

Key	Value
corner-radius	10

The advantage of using a lookup is that the row can be moved for organisational purposes without losing the link to the value.

UI

File - connect a .csv or Google Sheet Asset.

Lookup Column - select the column in your data to search for a key.

Lookup Key - specify the key (text) to find within the Lookup Column.

Value Column - select the column to match against the Lookup Key.
