Formulas

Hi I’m quite new to formulas, but I’m trying to find a formula that would extract a username from a Social Media Profile URL and return the username with an “@” in front of it. E.g. Taking - https://www.instagram.com/originalsteve/ and returning @originalsteve I’ve been reading up about REGEX functions, but it’s a little but it seems quite complicated. Would anyone be able to help? Thanks

Hello all I have a single formula field called Threat Score I have multiple single select fields with answers of Yes,No, Na. I am trying to have a final threat score after all the single select fields are answered. For example Switch({Is there leaves, needles or other vegetation on roofs, gutters, decks, porches, stairways, etc.?}, ‘Yes’, 0, ‘No’, 4, 'Na’, 4 ) Switch({Is there any dead and dying trees, branches and shrubs or other plants adjacent to or overhanging buildings?}, ‘Yes’, 0, ‘No’, 4 'Na’, 4 ) If the user chooses no for both fields the formula field should have a sum of 8. How would I combine multiple fields into a single formula to come up with a final sum. Thank you Josh

Hello! I am looking to add a formula that would split this lookup field that can contain multiple items and separate or split into separate text columns for each “planning unit”. The planning unit column can have no items or up to 10ish items. Thanks in advance for the help!

Hey there, i am super new to Airtable but already love it. I am trying to write a little overview tool for our employees and gotten to a point where I could not find answers in tutorials. I have setup a example database to explain what I am trying to do. I guess it is pretty easy and I just don’t know where to look. i have one table with all the emplyoes in it. And I have another table with dates and 3 locations. I can now easily assign one employee to a location per day. What I am trying to achieve is a table, where I would have a overview “the other way around”. Where Names of the employees are in the rows (line in the “Personal” table) and dates are in the colums. With this would like to see, who is where on which day. Is that possible? I have setup a mockup in photoshop to explain what I am trying to do. Hope someone can give me a short guise on what to do. Thanks in advance, Thomas

Hey, I need to create a formula something like this: If field_1 = “text_A”, then; If field_2> field_3, “Text_B”, “Text_C” Otherwise “Text_D” I don´t know how to do it and I couldn´t find from community or google… Anybody? Thanks //Mikko

This post is in response to the 4/4/2022 email announcement titled “Changes to Airtable attachments” which announced that static URL’s will be going away. This has a HUGE and sadly dramatic affect on my application. I’m using Airtable to crowd-source content for a weekly email - each member submits a form with their content, and I use formulas to roll together all the content into an automated weekly email, including images. It seems with this change that using static urls (as obtained via a formula and embedded into HTML tags) will no longer be possible. I’m not sure how else I can embed photos into the emails I send out. I’m hoping someone can help think this through. A HUGE part of what I’m doing is about automating the compilation of multiple contributors into one email… it’s been working brilliantly for years… I’m so sad about this. I don’t know what to do…

Hello, we sell flowers online and use Shopify, we ask the customer for some extra information with each order, the date they’d like the flowers delivered and their card message. When we get the Shopify data (Line Items Properties Value) through to Airtable it comes through in the following format [Day][Comma][Date][Month][Comma][Year][Pipe Key][Comma][Card Message] (e.g. Friday, 22 April, 2022|,Happy Birthday, Love you xxx) splitting THIS up is relatively easy although it took some working out, (Note: commas can’t be used reliably to split up the data as customers often use commas in their card messages) so to do this I have the Line Items Properties Value data in a regular text field and use the following formula: Delivery Date: LEFT({Line Items Properties Value}, FIND("|", {Line Items Properties Value}) -1) Card Message: RIGHT({Line Items Properties Value}, LEN({Line Items Properties Value}) - FIND("|", {Line Items Properties Value})

I have a “Long Text” Field that contains a list of URLS. There is an associated keyword in the adjacent cell, which is what yielded those URLs listed in the LongText field keyword | LongTextUrlsField shoes | [50+ Shoe Related Urls] Is there a way to extract each of those urls and put them into a new table, along with the corresponding keyword (multiple times) like this? keyword | longtextUrls shoes | Url 1 of 50 shoes | Url 2 of 50 shoes | Url 3 of 50… I have looked at everything from python scripting, to regex formulas, and even AirScript Ideas. Although there are some similar topics out there, nothing did this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have a few scenarios that would be so much easier if there was a way to have some more advanced options in the pivot table, is there other ways to customize this app or alternative pivot apps that might solve my needs? #1 - im trying to see the unique record names as a cell value instead of a calculation (ie sum, count etc). Google sheet allows me to enter a custom formula which means I can have a pivot table that maps the entire year of product releases by month per category, and the formula allows me to list each month as the unique item short-names. this way instead of seeing a count of 5 for example, I see a list of 5 item names. I know I can click on the pivot table cell and show record, but the ability to compare months and consider patterns or timings of things is easier with short-name visibility. Timeline view would have been nice but I have been unable to format it for viewing the name because it ends up truncating the text due to the

Hi Folks, Does anybody has an idea how we can reproduce the colored bar stats in the function field?

Hi there! I have a slight feeling I might need to use scripting for this but I am NOT a javascript trained human. I am trying to take the sum of the $ amounts in “January Birthday Notifications” and place it in the “January Balance” field. The trick here is… I need to do this for each month so efficiency is really important to me, haha. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!

Hi! I’m new to airtable. I’m running an automation to create google calendar events. I need to evaluate if the email addresses in a field are in our domain name, and if so add them to a new field. My challenge is that there can be many email addresses in the field, so the text-based formulas won’t work. Is there a way to loop through a multi-select and evaluate each element independently? Thank you!

Hi, I have two linked tables. (very basic stuff) How to get the sum of numbers in linked column and show the result into another column. Please check the image of my base: “hxxt://cdn1.imggmi.com/uploads/2019/11/26/f4ca6ea5ae2d7a7d6eb92a96c1bdc33b-full.jpg”

hi i am trying to put this formula IF(Level=1,“Yes”,IF(Level=0,OR(2,3,4,5),“A la carte”),IF(Level=0,OR(6,7),“No” )) but Airtable didn’t save it, when I check, only that part of the formula was saved IF(Level=1,“Yes”,IF(Level=0,OR(2,3,4,5),“A la carte”)). How can I do to solve this problem? How can i do to set this problem ?

Hi All - Hoping someone can help me figure out a formula to create the result outlined in the attached image. Involves stringing together text from fields, as well as replacing spaces with underscores, and shortening some Names to be Initials Only, etc. If possible to create a Loom or Video explaining how to do this, I would be so grateful! I can’t seem to figure out how to properly put all the proper formulas together to make this happen but know it can be done. Thanks!

Hello! I am trying to add a view onto my content tracker for localization efforts of some of our content assets. The content that meets a certain criteria feeds into this view and there are columns for all of our Tier 1 and Tier 2 languages. However, I want to automatically populate the “US” field with a link to the final asset, since all of our content originates in US English. The challenge is that there are 3 columns where the link might exist. The first column is the highest priority, if there’s nothing there then it goes to the second column, and ideally if there’s nothing there then it would default to the third column (the reason for this being that different content types will have different final content sources. I was able to create a nested IF for just the two options, but now I can’t figure out how to add in the third column to the mix if those fields don’t have any values. The hierarchy is {Marketo Link}, {Published Page Link} and then {Link to Final F

Hello, I want to calculate the number of days of a mission, either from a period of time with beginning and end dates - which I can do with the [ DATETIME_DIFF() function] or (and this is where I have an issue), from a list of specific dates. I want to make the sum of theses days. What is the formula for that please?

I have a Time Entries table that is linked to a Tasks table via a linked record field. I want to use a formula field to calculate Total Payment dependent on the Task selected, but I can’t seem to format the formula currently. My currently formula: IF({Task}=‘MCCE – Facilitating Workshop, Grading & Prep’,{Standard Facilitation Rate (from Project)}*Quantity,{Planning Rate (from Staff)}*Quantity) I’m unable to figure out a way for it to trigger the TRUE equation when the MCCE – Facilitating Workshop, Grading & Prep task record is selected.

Hi, I am trying to use the concatenate formula to combine the name of the class and date while adjusting the date format. However, I want the values to be combined only if the class field is not empty. i have tied variations of blank and if statems without any luck. Here is the formula I am using now but when the class is blank, the fomula still returns the formated date only. Appreciate any help. Thank you! CONCATENATE({Name of Elective Session}, " “, “on”,” ", DATETIME_FORMAT({Date}, ‘MMM Do’))

Hi there, Im a beginner of Airtable living in Japan. Im about creating DB in airtable for generating invoices automatically but there are some problems.

Hello, I’m trying to figure out how to express the below in Airtable. I took inspiration from this thread This is what I have so far… IF ( {CALCULATED SCORE} < 1, “0”, IF( {CALCULATED SCORE} < 2.2, “⭐️”, IF( {CALCULATED SCORE} < 4.5, “⭐️⭐️” IF( {CALCULATED SCORE} < 6.9, “⭐️⭐️⭐️” IF( {CALCULATED SCORE} < 8.9, “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️” IF( {CALCULATED SCORE} < 10, “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️” ) ) ) ) ) )

I’ve tried everything and I’m so close, but I can only seem to nest 4 IF statements and can’t find how to get up to 5. Background: I’m trying to assign dollar signs to different price points. If a price is less than or equal to 50 = $ less than or equal to 100 = $$ less than or equal to 500 = $$$ less than or equal to 1000 = $$$$ more than 1000 = $$$$$ Here’s what I have that almost works: IF( {Price} <= 50, "$", IF( {Price} <= 100, "$$", IF({Price} <= 500, "$$$", IF({Price} <= 1000, "$$$$" ) ) ) ) I’d like to just add one more IF in there, but I guess when I add a “>=” it messes up the code and I get an error. How do I get that just one extra step? Thanks in advance!

Why isn’t this 0? What is it. Look at the picture for details

Hi all, I am sure this has all been asked before. I have a field that is linked to another table but I have ‘Allow linking to multiple records’. When I create a formula that multiples this field to another, it will work when there is only one record selected in the linked field but returns a ‘1’ when it tries to multiply to both. Ideally, the numbers in the linked field would be added together to give a total, then the formula could multiply that number with the other field to give me a total. Is that workable?

Hi there! It appears as if I have stumped even Reddit… here is my question: I am attempting to customize a typeform link to include hidden fields associated with one table so that I can sync it to the next table and keep the data consistent. I have tried both of these in a formula, and neither are working: “Brand Onboarding - New & {First Name for Typeform URL} & “&email=“ & {Email Address} & “&brand=“ & {Brand Name} & “&last_name=“ & {Last Name for Typeform URL} CONCATENATE("Brand Onboarding - New, {First Name for Typeform URL}, “&email=“, {Email Address}, “&brand=“, {Brand Name}, “&last_name=“, {Last Name for Typeform URL}) I created the firs
