    Here's how to create a formula that displays an ID or error message: 1. Add a new column and select Formula 2. In the AI Formula Generator box: โ€ข Use "/" to reference your ID column โ€ข Type your desired error handling logicYou can structure your formula like this: LBKSIF({{id}} == "") THEN "Error: Missing ID" ELSE {{id}}LBKSThis will display the ID when present, and show a clear error message when the ID is missing.The formula follows an if-else structure where you can: ** Reference your ID column using "/" ** Apply comparison operators (like equals, not equals) * Return different values based on the condition Sources: Conditional runs | Documentation | Clay University Formulas Conditional statements | Documentation | Clay University
