How can I use filter formula in google sheets to filter from a column of text

$

0

I have a table with a column of tags, which is comma-separated and could be single or multiple text, eg "single", "not single". I also have a separate table that contains tags that I want to filter.

I have tried a combination of filter, regex and join formulas, eg =filter(data, regexmatch(some range, join some contents of filter strings) but they don't work and I am lost.

Help. Thanks and much appreciated.

Example (simplified for illustration):

TAGS - could just be a column in a sheet

random, words of, no meaning

random

words of

no meaning

FILTER WORDS - in a separate sheet but could grow

random

words of

IDEAL RESULT - in a separate sheet using filter formula

random, words of, no meaning

random
