Mix icons and formula to connect "state" and "health"

Hi everyone,

I created a "new health" column which is a drop down menu of icons (in the picture). These icons are mixed from two different sets of available icon. I want to create a formula to connect this "new health" and "State". For example, if state is "In progress/ On Track" it will show the green checkmark symbol. I have used this formula:

=IF(State@row = "In Progress/ On Track", "Yes", IF(State@row = "At Risk", "Hold", IF(State@row = "Blocked/Stalled", "No", IF(State@row = "Complete", "Blue"))))

Can someone help me out, please?

Thank you!

    Hi @Linh Nguyen

    I hope you're well and safe!

    You'll have to replace the "Yes", "Hold", "No" and "Blue" with the symbols instead.

    Something like this.

    =IF(State@row = "In Progress/ On Track", "✅", IF(State@row = "At Risk", "⚠️", IF(State@row = "Blocked/Stalled", "⛔️", IF(State@row = "Complete", "🔵"))))

    Did that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
