Hi, i've been searching the internet about the getpivotdata function in googlesheet but can't find a working solution.

In this picture, I want to pull a data in a pivot and show in the table below(red circle).
I'm using this formula

=GETPIVOTDATA("Calls",$Q$1,"Date",$Q46,"Name",$R46)

where $Q$1 is the reference pivot.
$Q46 is the cell that contains the reference date that I want to change everytime.
$R46 is the cell that contains the reference name that I want to change everytime.

My problem is making the cell Q46 as the reference date doesn't work in googlesheets. But its working fine in excel.
Here is the link of the spreadsheet data im working:

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().

Reading excelguru's message for cross posting made me realize that doing this may upset people. I'm now fully aware the consequences that this behavior can have. I apologize to everyone, this wont happen again and thank you for all the people contributing in this community.
