Hi @Mary_Usen,

The multi-select field is just a text string in the formula field, so it cannot be calculated.
It is possible to extract only the last select as a text string.

REGEX_EXTRACT({Multi Select}, "([^,]*)$")

Thank you so much @Sho ! Very helpful!!!   This worked! But then uncovered that when the data maps over from jira makes the multi select field not populate in sequence.   But that’s a me problem!  Your formula was excellent! Thank you so much
