Conditional Formatting for Duplicates

Adding the ability to do conditional formatting by column, similar to how I would flag a column for duplicates in Microsoft Excel.

    This would be really useful to have immediate functionality for this. There is a workaround where you use a helper column that is a checkbox that gets ticked using a formula that looks for duplicates. You can then apply conditional formatting on the rows that have the checkbox ticked.

    Realise it's not ideal, but it's the best that can be done at the minute.

  • Is the functionality for real-time detection of duplicates on a roadmap, like how Excel auto-completes a cell if duplicate?
