FLO.W 思流Notion Formulas

Quick Start

A Notion formula reference for functions, example formulas, common errors, and practical snippets.

How to use this manual

  • New to formulas: start with "Basics".
  • Looking up a specific function: go to "Function index"; every function has its own reference page.
  • Solving a concrete use case: go to "Formula snippets", find a similar example, then change the property names.
  • Working with complex formulas, errors, or long-term maintenance: go to "Writing and troubleshooting".

Common entry points

Shortest learning path for beginners

Learn in this order instead of memorizing every function at once:

  1. Reference properties: prop("Property Name")
  2. Do basic math: +, -, *, /
  3. Handle conditions: if(), ifs(), empty()
  4. Work with text: format(), +, contains(), replaceAll(), trim()
  5. Work with dates: today(), now(), dateAdd(), dateBetween(), formatDate()
  6. Work with lists: map(), filter(), length(), join(), first()
  7. Write variables: let(), lets()
  8. Break down complex formulas into helper properties first, then merge them into one formula
  9. Debug type errors, empty values, depth limits, and list-versus-single-value mistakes

To use these formulas directly in task reminders, project progress, note heatmaps, and reports, continue with FLO.W Notion Template.
