formula to add a checkbox in one column if another column is updated with multiple items?
If a column is set up as multiple drop down options, I’d like a formula in another column (checkbox) to check the box if more than one selection is made. Is this possible?

Hey @Heather Taylor
The CountM function counts items in multiselect dropdown columns. You can use this function to look for rows with a value greater than 1.
=IF(COUNTM([dropdown column]@row) > 1, 1)
Be sure to edit this formula to match the name of your actual column
