Google Sheets: How do I get unique values for a column, based on a conditions in different columns?












0















Let's say I have three columns. Column A has a list of names (that are repeated), column B has the city they live in, and column C has the number of pets.



I can use the unique(A1:A5000) function to get the list of unique names. However, I want a list of the unique names for people who live in New York and have Zero pets.



I can use:
COUNTUNIQUE(FILTER(A1:A5000,B1:B5000 = "New York",C1:C5000=0))



To get the number of unique people who live in new york and have zero pets, but I want to get a list of unique names.



Basically I want to combine the "unique" and "if" features and I'm not sure how to do that.



I would be open to doing this in two steps: Step 1: Get a column with all the names of people who satisfy this condition Step 2: Get the unique names in that column. But I'm not sure how to do step 1.
