Hello! Do you guys know if it’s possible to create a formula that return a rate (1 to 3) IF:
- in the field {name field}, there are both “option1” AND “option2” = 3
- in the field {name field}, there is only “option1” = 2
- in the field {name field}, there are no “option1” OR “option2” = 1
I tried to use IF, FIND, AND, OR but I couldn’t do it :frowning:
Thanks for support!

Hey @Edoardo_Abate!
Welcome in!
So, I presume you’re using a multi-select field.
If you are, then this formula format will work with the parameters you provided:
IF(
{Field},
IF(
{Field} = "option1, option2",
3,
IF(
{Field} = "option1",
2
)
),
1
)
Truth be told, multi-select fields are an absolute pain to work with sometimes.
Here, Airtable treats the multi-select values as a string containing the comma-separated values.
Lemme know if you have any questions or run into any issues!

Thank you Ben!!
It works, I’v just modified like this:
IF(
AND(
FIND("option1",{field}),
FIND("option2",{field})
),"5",
IF(
OR(
FIND("option1",{field}),
FIND("option2",{field})
),"4",
IF(
AND(
FIND("option2",{field}),
FIND("option3",{field})
),"3",
IF(
AND(
FIND("option3",{field}),
FIND("option4",{field})
), "1", "2"
)
)
)
)
Thanks a lot :slightly_smiling_face:

The OR(option1, option2) condition should be your last condition checked, or should at least be after the AND(option2, option 3) condition. Your formula as written will never check if both 2 and 3 are present since it stops running once 2 is found.

Hi,
Depending on your final goal, you can also use variations of:
SWITCH(
8*(FIND(“option1”,{field})>0)+
4*(FIND(“option2”,{field})>0)+
2*(FIND(“option3”,{field})>0)+
(FIND(“option4”,{field})>0),
0,‘empty cell’,
1,‘just option4’,
2,‘just option3’,
3,‘option 3 and 4 together’,
…
15,‘all are present’,
‘some default’
)
