Does anyone have a way to list the ancestors of a row in a cell of that row? Thanks!

Hi @MLK,
Try this:
=JOIN(ANCESTORS([Task Name]@row), ", ")
Replace [Task Name] with your Primary Column name.
Optionally you can replace the ", " with another delimiter.
Hope it helps!

@MLK what about the ancestors do you want to list? Task name?

@MLK,
One more thought. Here's the other delimiter that I would consider. It gives a space, a dash, and a space in between each Ancestor.
=JOIN(ANCESTORS([Task Name]@row), " - ")
