Hey Makers :wave:

We’re pleased to share another exciting update: meet our new built-in functions! :handshake:

Transforming data is critical to many automation processes, and we’re committed to further helping you streamline them. That’s why we want to introduce you to our brand-new suite of built-in functions.

What are the new functions?

  • Abs () - Returns the absolute value of an integer.

  • Median () - Returns the median of the value in a specified array or the median of numbers entered individually.

  • Trunc () - Truncates a number to an integer by removing the fractional part of the number.

  • stdevS ([array of values]) - Returns the standard deviation of a specified array of sample values, or the standard deviation of numbers entered individually.

  • stdevP ([array of values]) - Returns the standard deviation of a specified array of population values, or the standard deviation of numbers entered individually.

  • replaceEmojiCharacters(text) - Replaces emoji characters with the new string.

replaceEmojiCharacters is probably going to be the most underrated useful function here.

This is because right now to remove emoji from text, we need to use a complex regex pattern with the replace function.

Sounds nice! Are you guys also looking at all the Canny request for these function updates? There are quite some interesting requests on functions.

Make.com just dropped a bunch of awesome new built-in functions, and let me tell you, they’re game changers.

Think of these functions as your personal data wranglers. No more wrestling with messy numbers or puzzling over emoji-filled messages. These tools can transform, analyze, and clean your data like a pro, making your automation smoother than butter. These new functions open up a world of possibilities.

Thank you!
