Split Sheet v1.5

Tip. Install the latest version of Split Sheet from the Google Workspace Marketplace to try all new features first-hand.

Live updates are now available for splitting by rows!

By being linked to your original data, formulas will reflect all newly added rows in each split sheet in real-time:
Split by 20 rows using a formula.
With the ability to use the formula to split by both rows and columns, we've moved this setting to Step 1:
Enable real-time updates with a formula for rows.
Whenever you want to split by rows & enable real-time updates with a formula, make sure to plan ahead and select a larger range from the beginning. This will let the add-on take all future rows into account and prepare sheets for them in advance. 

No worries, you will find the related instructions in the tool, on the Connect file to IMPORTRANGE sheet, and in the add-on tutorial on our website.
How to prepare for new rows to appear in split sheets automatically.

Tip. The help page also contains some formula limitations you need to know.

Flexible range inputs to split by groups of rows

When splitting by groups of rows, you now have more flexibility in how you specify those groups. You can use hyphens as an alternative to colons, e.g., 1-20 instead of 1:20
Use hyphens instead of colons in row groups.
This improvement is aimed at making the experience more intuitive and user-friendly for you.

Include all remaining rows in your last split sheet

Simply skip the final number when specifying groups of rows, e.g. 1:20, 21:40, 41:

The add-on will take all rows (starting from 41 till the end of your data) to the last split sheet.
Have all remaining rows at the end split to the last sheet.

This will ease splitting large tables especially if you don’t know the exact number of rows remaining.
