% Import the file
newData1 = load('-mat', fileToRead1);
% Create new variables in the base workspace from those fields.
vars = fieldnames(newData1);

Not enough input arguments.
Error in importfile (line 9)

Clearly, you've called the function without any input argument. Possibly, you've clicked on the green run button which is not going to work.
You need to give the name of the file to read when you call the function
%code that calls importfile:
importfile('C:\somewhere\somematfile.mat')
