Can you use sheets formulas as “app formulas”?

Hey all,

In my sheet I can select a name from a drop down and the following formula shows data based on the dropdown choice. Can I accomplish the same thing via Appsheet? Can I have the view show a drop down and based on that choice show information based on that choice? Here is my sheets formula:

=(QUERY(Sheet2!Z3:AD,“Select Z,AA,AB,((AD-AC)*24)/.25 label Z’Funder’,AA ‘Client’,AB ‘Service Date’,((AD-AC)*24)/.25 ‘Units Used’”,0))

Any advice is appreciated.

The QUERY and SELECT expressions are little bit different because with your QUERY formula you are reading values from more than one column like Z,AA,AB and ((AD-AC)*24)/.25. With the SELECT you can read values only from one column. Please check this sample app if it could help… appsheet.com - Custom reports - Reports that users can customize Custom reports - Reports that users can customize appsheet.com

The google sheets Query formula is very powerful, but there are likely better ways of doing this within Appsheet.

Appsheet uses a psudo sql formulas similar to the query formula within its app formulas.

if Sheet2 is a part of your appsheet app you should be able to query the data you are looking for.

It is a little hard to tell exactly what you are doing as I am not familiar with your code, but look into the following information
