Smartsheet is missing the ability to use a wildcard (*) in it's functions. This is a valuable tool and would be incredibly helpful, please add this functionality.
100% agree using find / contains is painful.

I want to echo Samuel Mueller’s request for the addition of wildcard functionality (e.g., *) within Smartsheet formulas. The ability to perform partial matches is fundamental in many spreadsheet use cases—especially when working with large data sets or performing flexible lookups and filters.

Currently, the absence of a wildcard function limits the efficiency of many workflows. This is a basic yet powerful feature found in other platforms like Excel and Google Sheets, and would be a valuable step forward in expanding Smartsheet’s formula capabilities.
Looking forward to seeing this implemented!
Re-upping this - this functionality would be very helpful to have.
