why does this happen? is there a way to fix this? formula gets the name variable in random code lol

The issue you're experiencing with the formula getting the name variable in random code might be due to a temporary glitch or caching problem. Here's how you can try to fix it: 1. Refresh your browser using Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R. This often resolves "Error evaluating formula" issues. 2. If the problem persists, try recreating the formula: • Add a new column and select "Formula" • Type out what you want to do in the AI Formula Generator box • Use "/" to reference columns in your condition • Click "Generate Formula" • Review the sample output and click "Save Formula" If these steps don't work, you might need to iterate on your formula. Remember, AI formulas may not always give perfect results on the first try. You can adjust the wording or modify the generated code to get the desired output.
