This is so wonderfully nerdy, I love it! As a software engineer, this makes Notion feel more appealing than before (I'm coming back to Notion after rejecting it for some years). Would love to know more about your setup, Ben!
When Notion rolls out big changes like this, it makes me so thankful that I purchased the Notion Mastery course. It was already so valuable to me at the time I signed up, but it continues to be such a great investment. Thank you for all of your hard work!
Is the rollup doing its job as-is? No need to replace it. If you want more control, you can replace, but keep in mind that Rollups have extra "rich" displays (for example, multi-selects have color versus being turned into strings in formulas).
@@benjaminborowski Thanks, Benjamin. I went ahead and replaced rollups with formulas for more flexibility, but hit a bump on the road when I couldn't use arrays in calculations. A rather disappointing limitation. So, I had to revert to using formatted rollups in these cases. As we all know, Notion takes a big hit to performance when databases get complex. Have you noticed any performance differences between using arrays vs rollup properties?
@@kasperkorea why can't you use arrays? feel free to share more. With regards to performance, Notion's engineers has said that Formulas *should* be faster than Rollups, but we don't have any evidence or real way to test this on the consumer end. Anecdotally, I haven't seen any super obvious difference and others have reported the same.
Thank you for that breakdown. I was wondering what are your thoughts on granular database sharing. For example, i have a database for projects and want to share it with my employees so they can see what is in production, but I dont want them to see customer data and pricing. Is there a way to get around this with the new formulas?
@@Legendarybeatzonline I've been asking for this weekly for about 3 years. Unfortunately I haven't seen any movement on this type of work on Notion's end. Will keep praying! Haha.

really love that solve for filtering out the current page using id() at 52mins Ben. Thanks
Cheers!
Would be awesome to see your github workflow that access oura ring API and puts data into notion
I second that!
I’m totally lost! 😂
It'll take time! I have decades of programming experience and I still get lost every. single. day!
Do you recommend to replace all rollups with the new 2.0 formulas?

@@kasperkorea I haven't noticed any noticable improvement, tbh. Very hard to measure without being a Notion employee though :)

Unfortunately, no, nothing about the permission model has been changed.
@@benjaminborowski is there any talk of making that update next?

That feature would really change the game for notion. At least especially for businesses that use notion for project managment and crm.
This THE thing that I've needed most for a couple years in my business!
Was that your Shiba as the cover photo? From the quick glance, they could be twins with mine!
