#1

Some existing workarounds can be found at Formula to replace special characters - slug creation

But they’re highly unfriendly, and don’t actually cover a proper “slug” use-case.

Is it possible to have official functions for this?
For instance:

See https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#kebabCase for implementation details

  • SLUG - Similar to KEBABCASE but also converts non-ascii characters (accents become non-accent)

This is really, really needed for urls generated by content. Like article’s title and such.

An alternative would be the ability to create our own functions, which would grant much more flexibility and reduce work on Airtable’s developers.
