Using Data Size Limits as Conditions in Formulas

I have some cells that have data sizes exceeding limits. That's totally fine, but how can I use it as a condition for formulas? I want to set the other cell based on that condition. What is it? Is it a status? Or something else? When I click on the cell it says 'nothing to show'

You can use conditional statements in Clay to handle various data conditions, including cases where data size exceeds limits. Here's how to approach it:1. Use IF statements to check for data validity: • For empty or invalid fields, you can use conditions like IF({{field}} == "") THEN "Error: Data Size Exceeded" ELSE "Valid Data" • For missing fields, use IF({{field}}) THEN "Valid" ELSE "Invalid" 2. Best practices for handling such cases: • Always include error handling for unexpected formats or missing data • Test edge cases to prevent unexpected errors • Set clear default values when data is invalid or exceeds limitsWhen a cell shows "nothing to show," this typically indicates missing or invalid data, which you can use as a condition in your formulas to handle appropriately.
