Hello, i’d like to get the sum of the true values in a new column.

In this exemple, i’d like to create a new column (names Total) to get 2.

- Use a Make Array column to create a single array from all 5 columns
- Use a Rollup Column to get a count of true values from the array

Thanks Darren, it works.  
Thanks to your answer, i had another idea, and i’ve just tried again to use Math, and now, it’s OK. The first time i tried, the boolean value were not converted as a number. Maybe i made a mistake the first time. I got now to solutions thanks to you. 🙏
