Difference between SELECT and FILTER in Appsheet
In the realm of AppSheet, efficiently managing and querying your data is pivotal for app performance and functionality. Two functions at the forefront of data manipulation are SELECT and FILTER. Though they might seem similar at first glance, understanding their nuances is key to leveraging them effectively. This guide dives into these differences, highlighted through a common use case: identifying duplicate entries. Before we delve into the differences, let’s consider the excerpt provided: COUNT(FILTER("customer", [Name] = [_THISROW].[Name])) > 1 This expression is used to count duplicate names in the "customer" table, illustrating a scenario
Understanding PDF filter (Part 3)
Part 3 of our exploration into leveraging AppSheet's FILTER expression for PDF generation introduces a more nuanced approach: combining multiple conditions to achieve precise data filtering. This method is particularly useful when generating reports that require data to meet several criteria before inclusion. The FILTER expression is versatile, allowing for the inclusion of logical operators such as AND, OR, and NOT. In this installment, we focus on using AND to combine conditions, ensuring that data must meet all specified criteria to be included in the PDF report. The syntax highlighted in this tutorial: <<Start:
