replaceAll

The first argument is the value to search. The second argument signifies what character to search for and replace. By entering a simple character, it will replace all matches of that character, but Regex can get very complex. click the link for more info. The third argument is the string that will replace what the second argument finds.

replace

he first argument is the value to search. The second argument signifies what character to search for and replace. By entering a simple character, it will replace only the first occurrence of that character, but Regex can get very complex. click the link for more info. The third argument is the string that will replace what the second argument finds.

replace(number, text, text) replace(text, text, text) replace(boolean, text, text)

format

Turns non-string values into strings. 42 is a number but an actual number justifies to the right of the cell while a string justifies left. You can tell the 42 in the example is a string because of this.

format(value)

slice

Extracts (keeps) a portion of a text string determined by numbers given in the argument that correspond to character count. It’s best to think of the place where it slices as after the characters given by the argument number. If only 1 number is given, it is considered the end slice point and will extract everything before it.

slice(text, number) slice(text, number, number)

join

Joins the first argument in between the rest of the arguments. The first argument is called a delimiter.

join(text...)

concat

Concatenate means "to combine". This function combines text Strings together.

concat(text...)

NUMBER

add

Simple addition of two numbers OR it can act the same as the concat() function, combining two strings.

number + number text + text add(number, number) add(text, text)

The 1st argument is a boolean - either true or false. If it's true, the 2nd argument is returned, if it's false, the 3rd argument is returned.

boolean ? value : value if(boolean, value, value)

A Mathematical constant and not not a function. Multiply the diameter of any circle by pi and you will have its circumference.

e stands for “Euler’s Constant” and is a mathematical constant and not a function. It’s a specific number that is often needed in math calculations and it’s much easier to type e than 2.718281828459045……

unaryPlus

- Strings convert to number if there are no alphabetical characters. Does not require wrapping in quotes. - Numbers are not necessary to perform unaryPlus on - True is 1, False is 0 - Dates do not work

+ value unaryPlus(value)

unaryMinus

Flips the sign of a number. If the number started as positive, it will return negative. If it started negative, it will return positive.

- number unaryMinus(number)

mod

Gives the remainder after dividing two numbers. 7 / 2 would equal 3.5 but if you only want to deal in whole numbers, 2 goes into 7 3 whole times for a total of 6 and then you have a remainder of 1.

number % number mod(number, number)

pow

Raises the first number to the power of the second number. This means multiplying the first number by itself as many times as given by the second number.

number ^ number pow(number, number)

divide

If 4 people share a dozen (12) donuts, how many does each of them get? 12 donuts divided by 4 people (12 / 4) = 3 donuts each. If its a baker’s dozen, you’ll have to fight over the 13th donut.

number / number divide(number, number)

multiply

If Jack takes 3 trips to the backyard and picks 4 apples each time, he has 12 apples total.

number * number multiply(number, number)

subtract

If you have 5 apples and give Jack 2 of those apples, you now have 3 apples left.

number - number subtract(number, number)

year

dateBetween

Specify the unit of time and measure the distance between two Dates by that unit. How do you measure, measure a year?

dateBetween(date, date, text)

timestamp

Literally gives you the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970. Refresh the page and you'll see it change (because the example below is timestamping “now” which stays up to date).

sqrt

Gives the number that, when multiplied by itself, would equal the number provided.

sqrt(number)

sign

A ternary code that returns 1 for a positive number, -1 for a negative number, and 0 for zero.

log2

Calculates how many times you have to multiply 2 by itself to equal the number in the argument.

log2(number)

log10

Calculates how many times you have to multiply 10 by itself to equal the number in the argument.

log10(number)

When you have a number and you want to know what number multiplied by itself would equal your number - you want the natural logarithm.

ln(number)

floor

This function gives you the next lowest number below any number with a decimal. 2.999 turns to 2 because it's less than 3, but 3 remains 3.

floor(number)

exp

Multiplies the argument by Euler's constant

exp(number)

ceil

Short for ceiling, this function gives you the next highest number above any number with a decimal. 4.0001 turns to 5 because it's greater than 4, but 4 remains 4.

ceil(number)

cbrt

Returns the cube root of the number given in the argument.

cbrt(number)

abs

The absolute value of a number is its distance from 0, whether positive or negative. Can take a positive or negative number but will always return a positive number.

abs(number)

toNumber

Turns non-number values into numbers. 42 is a number and an actual number justifies to the right of the cell while a string justifies left. You can tell the 42 in the example is a number because of this.

toNumber(text) toNumber(number) toNumber(boolean) toNumber(date)

length

Returns a number signifying how many characters are included in the given string.

length(text)

‣

DATE

The 1st argument is a boolean - either true or false. If it's true, the 2nd argument is returned, if it's false, the 3rd argument is returned.

fromTimestamp(number)

now

Gives the current date and time down to the minute. Notion currently does not track seconds in the Date value type but it does on the timestamp level.

now()

end

Date properties can have a start and end date. This returns the end date, or if there is no end date, the original date entry.

end(date)

start

Date properties can have a start and end date. This returns the start date, or if there is no end date, the original date entry.

start(date)

‣

BOOLEAN

The 1st argument is a boolean - either true or false. If it's true, the 2nd argument is returned, if it's false, the 3rd argument is returned.

boolean ? value : value if(boolean, value, value)

false

Checks for logical falsity. Be mindful as it will return “true” if what it’s checking falsity for is indeed false. It would be “true” that it’s false.

false

true

Checks for logical truthfulness and returns true if true, false if not.

true

smallerEq

Checks if the first argument is larger than the second OR equal to it. Requires two values of the same type to be compared. - Text values compare character count - Numbers are self explanatory - Earlier Dates are smaller - False is smaller than True

value != value unequal(value, value)

equal

Checks for equality between two arguments.

value == value equal(value, value)

Checks for truth in either of its two arguments. Does not require both to be true leaving room for optional logic.

boolean or boolean or(boolean, boolean)

and

Checks if two arguments are true. Useful when more than one criteria is required for the formulas intention.

boolean and boolean and(boolean, boolean)

not

It’s opposite day. Returns the opposite of the boolean in the argument. If the argument is true and you wrap it in not( ), the formula is now returning false.

not boolean not(boolean)
