Formulas

For folks that write their formulas in VSC (or Sublime Text or any other code editor), what syntax auto-coloring do y'all use? There's nothing specific to Airtable's syntax, so I'm wondering what folks have been to be most pleasing and/or function the best? 

Hello,Is it possible to enable the URL from a long text field with rich text enabled (in other words, this field type) to be clicked on in another formula field? In other words, the long text field I have has text within the field linking out to URLs. When that long text field is included in another formula field (for instance, as a concatenation linking the long text field with other fields), the URLs disappear. Is there any way to enable the URLs to be included and clickable in that separate formula field?Thanks so much!

I have a sub-task field (long text with rich text format- check box format) I wanna Insert a field called “Processing” to calculate the % of sub task I have done (checked), which formula should i use for that ?

Hi there. I have a table that has all of our customers and their start date. When they register to an event, it goes into a different table and these are linked to the customers table. I can count how many events they have registered to without a problem, however i'm finding an issue as:I want to calculate how many events they have registered to after their start date (note they can register to events before they start), and I can't seem to find a workaround.

Hi! I am trying to solve the following:I have a lookup field that lists multiple dates multiples times (the same day in each respective record). Like so: 10/10/2022, 10/10/2022, 10/10/2022, 10/10/2022. This is the "Move In Date ~ Expansion" Field. I only want one date listed and clean like so "MM-DD-YYYY". So I created a Formula Field ("Move In Date ~ Expansion (Calculation)" Field and did an ARRAYUNIQUE formula, however, it shows up with additional 0's and is not clean. How can I adjust this formula so that it lists the date of the lookup field only once and clean like so"MM-DD-YYYY"? Or does anyone have any other solve here? Thank you!

I am new to Airtable, but I cannot find a simple formula to calculate years of service for employees from the start date. I can get it to calculate years, but would like to see it in decimal format. For 8 1/2 years I would like to see 8.50. I am currently using the below...Adding the "months", did not do anything different. DATETIME_DIFF(TODAY(),{Start date},'years', "months") Any help is appreciated... 

Hi,I need to supply to my team of buyers the "best deal" for any given category and sub-category of products in our database. At first, it was easy to group by category / sub-category into a view sorted by price ASC. But over time, the database grew big and we now have 7000+ products splitted into 25 categories and 50 sub-categories ...that makes it long and tedious to scroll through this view to locate manually the cheapest product for each category/sub-category combo (about 150 unique combinations in total).My question: is there a way to get a view that'd output the best product per category / sub-category combo in a flat table format. In other words, this view would contain ONLY the 150 best deals.Many thanks!

Hello, I am looking for a solution to having dynamic conditions for fields. Example: I have a table with attendees and another table with events. I want a count of how many events an attendee has gone to (which is created via a linked field in the “events” table, to the “Attendees” table). However, I only want a count of how many events they’ve been to AFTER a certain date. That date is dynamic and unique to each participant and lives in the “Attendee” table. How can I filter the “count” field so that I can only see events that they have attended, but only after a certain unique date? The current filters in fields are static, meaning any value applied in the field applies to ALL records equally. Thanks so much for your help!

Hi everyone! I hope you had an amazing Thanksgiving!I have some problems with my formula, I'm trying to concatenate two columns (see attachment ).

I have a list of holiday dates, and I need to determine if today is one of those dates. So far I’ve figured out how to check today against a single date, but not against a list of dates. However, there’s also a problem with checking the date. If I use this formula, I get the correct response. IF( IS_SAME( TODAY(),‘11/22/2022’ ), ‘HOLIDAY’,“NULL” ) BUT, I need to know if TODAY() is equal to the holiday date for different timezones. If I perform a DATETIME_FORMAT with SET_TIMEZONE, then it sets the date to yesterday. And if I use NOW() as the basis for the comparison, it won’t just check against the date, it seems to also want the time. So, question is two-fold: 1) How can I compare today’s date with a specific date in different timezones in order to determine if today is a holiday in that timezone? 2) How can I compare today’s date to a list of dates? Thanks for your help! -Shawn

Hi AllI'm currently scraping data from a few event listing websites into Airtable to create a database of events for the LGBTQ community.On a few of the websites, I can't extract the full event date from the listings, this only appears in the URL.An example of the URL is:https://www.admiral-duncan.co.uk/soho/02-01-2023/karaoke-showdown-with-candy-healsIs there any easy way to do this?The other issue is that each site link has a different URL length, but the way they show the date is the same each time:https://www.the2brewers.com/london/08-12-2022/pantoAny suggestions?Thanks

Dear All,I have come across a dilemma and see if anyone of you could give me a hand. Is it possible to transform a lookup value, which is dependent, to an independent value in the same table?Like in the above diagram, Main (from Set) is a lookup value, which it changes everyday. Since I am using this table to record the transaction, I would like to see if there is any way that I don't need to cut those records and paste it to Main Dish column manually.Or is there any script that can help making this happen? For example, on a daily basis, it would carry out a schedule job by copying one column to another one?Appreciate your kind advice and comment.🙏

Hey everyone, I’ve been doing a couple of automation with Airtable and I use a formula to pull in data, this is the formula I use for it. "input.email"={Email} I use that to pull in any record on Airtable that has the email I am inputting, what I realized is, it doesn’t work when the casing is different i.e. I noticed john@gmail.com is not equal to John@gmail.com, so the formula will say nothing found although the same email exists with just an upper case. So I have 2 solutions in mind, lowercase all the emails in the Airtable email field cause the input data is always lowercase, or tell the formula to take in upper cased similar emails as well. Could anyone here help me with it?

Hello,I have a following situation:Table buyers has 8 rating columns (AAA,AA,A,NR,B,C,No Rating) which are determining different interest rates for each rating value. Each buyer has different interest rates in these rating columns.Table invoices has lookup field which looks up from a supplier table the rating of the supplier and adds that to the supplier_rating field.Now I want to get the correct interest rate from the buyer table based on the rating value of the supplier into invoices table.How should I do this?

Hi!I have this small test function to reproduce my issue:```IF(AND(5=6,LOWER(50)), 'ok', 'not ok')```Normally I would expect this to output "not ok", but it gives an error. The AND operation does not stop after the first mismatch. Usualy in programming languages you would stop then and no further arguments will be evaluated.This looks like a bug, right?Does anyone know how to work around this?

Hi! Im trying to assign a currency value from a single select field text and am having trouble. I've tried using the IF function and I can get it to look how I want, but the field is not a number field and so will not give me a sum. For example my single select has 2 options "Regular" or "Reserved" . If I select "Regular" I want my formula field to automatically assign a monetary value of $100. And then I want to see the sum of all of those. How can I do this?Thank you!
