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
- Function reference table
- Logic and condition functions
- Text functions
- Number and math functions
- Date and time functions
- List functions
- Common formula snippets
- Common errors and troubleshooting
Shortest learning path for beginners
Learn in this order instead of memorizing every function at once:
- Reference properties:
prop("Property Name") - Do basic math:
+,-,*,/ - Handle conditions:
if(),ifs(),empty() - Work with text:
format(),+,contains(),replaceAll(),trim() - Work with dates:
today(),now(),dateAdd(),dateBetween(),formatDate() - Work with lists:
map(),filter(),length(),join(),first() - Write variables:
let(),lets() - Break down complex formulas into helper properties first, then merge them into one formula
- 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.
