How do I only count visible rows when using the COUNTIFS function?

I've been using Excel's COUNTIFS function to count the number of rows in a table that meet certain criteria, E.g:

=COUNTIFS(Table1[Result],"Fail", Table1[Comments], "")

Now I want to modify this expression so that it only counts rows in Table1 that are visible. (I.E. Not filtered out.) How can I accomplish this?

I use this formula: =subtotal(3,B2:B100) where subtotal(3, that is CountA and B2:b100 is the range. The hidden rows in a filter are ignored and this formula only counts the visible rows. It works for me and hope it works for you

Simple way is to add another column to table - e.g. called helper with a formula like this

=SUBTOTAL(103, B2)

where column B is Result column

Now change formula to

=COUNTIFS(Table1[Result],"Fail", Table1[Comments], "",Table1[Helper],1)

the subtotal formula only returns 1 on visible rows

Without a helper column you can use this formula

=SUMPRODUCT((Table1[Result]="Fail")*(Table1[Comments]=""),SUBTOTAL(103,OFFSET(Table1[Result],ROW(Table1[Result])-MIN(ROW(Table1[Result])),0,1,1)))
