Copy and paste data from one sheet to multiple where range matches sheet names - excel

Question

I have an API call that pulls data relating to 34 individual sites. Each site has a varying number of assets within it, each with a unique identifier.
I am trying to write a macro that will copy and paste the data for specific sites into their own individual worksheet within the file. The basic concept of this I am familiar with but I am struggling with the ranges I need to specify.
So basically, I need the macro to work its way down Column A of the sheet called Raw Data and identify any rows where the Site name (Value in column A) matches one of the Sheet names. It should then copy the Rows from A to H with that site name and paste into the respective site sheet in rows A to H.
The values in Column A will always match one of the other sheets in the workbook.
Example image that might help explain a bit better:
Apologies in advance if my explanation is not very clear. I have very limited experience using macros so I am not sure if my way of explaining what I want to achieve is understandable or if at all possible.
I am very keen to learn however and any guidance you fine folk could offer would be very much appreciated.

Answer 1

Welcome!
Try this one
Function ChkSheet(SheetName As String) As Boolean
For i = 1 To Worksheets.Count
If Worksheets(i).Name = SheetName Then
ChkSheet = True
Exit Function
End If
Next
ChkSheet = False
End Function
Sub test()
Dim i, j, k As Long
Dim wsRaw As Worksheet
Dim Aux As String
Set wsRaw = Worksheets("Raw Data")
For i = 1 To wsRaw.Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row
If ChkSheet(wsRaw.Cells(i, 1).Value2) Then
Aux = wsRaw.Cells(i, 1).Value2
k = Worksheets(Aux).Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row + 1
For j = 1 To 8
Worksheets(Aux).Cells(i + k, j).Value2 = wsRaw.Cells(i, j).Value2
Next
Else
Worksheets.Add.Name = wsRaw.Cells(i, 1).Value2
Aux = wsRaw.Cells(i, 1).Value2
k = 2
For j = 1 To 8
Worksheets(Aux).Cells(i + k, j).Value2 = wsRaw.Cells(i, j).Value2
Next
End If
Next
End Sub
So the Function ChkSheet will check if the sheet exist (you don´t need to create them) and the procedure test will follow all the items that you have in your "Raw Data" worksheet and it will copy to the last used row of every sheet.
And please, even for a newbie, google, read, get some information and when you get stacked, ask for help. This forum is not for giving solutions with not effort.

Answer 2

Good morning all,
David, thanks very much for your help with this. I really didn't want you to think I was trying to get someone to give me the answer and I had tried a few other things before asking the question, but I neglected to show any evidence of my workings. Rookie mistake and I apologise for this.
Having done a bit more research online and with a good dollop of help from a much more experienced colleague I have got the below code using advance filter which works perfectly for what I need.
I thought I would share it here in case it is of any use to others in the future.

Dim RawDataCol As String
Dim ListCol As String
Dim AdvRng As String
Dim RawDataRng As String

RawDataCol = "A2"
'Column where the Unique List is cleared and pasted
ListCol = "L"
'Advanced Filter Range
AdvRng = "A1:K2"
'Pasted Raw Data Columns on each sheet
RawDataRng = "A2:K"
'Site Abr gets pasted to the address during loop
SiteAbrRng = "A2"
'Range that gets deleted after pasting Raw Data to each sheet

Thanks again to all who answered and especially to you David. Although I have only used the basic principles from what you offered, it was extremely useful to help me understand what I needed to do in order to get the data to copy into the correct sheets.
Many thanks,
