Hi Gliders! Just thought I’d share a quick video showing one of many ways you can introduce “user streaks” into your app. For example, you could use this in a Workout app where you reward members for logging workouts on a daily basis. I’m sure there are better/more resource efficient ways of getti…

Creative, nicely done :+1: I think the only thing I would do differently would be to use JavaScript to calculate the streak, rather than calling an external script. I’d also pass the dates as integers - just makes them easier to work with as you can do direct numerical comparisons. Another option w…

Thanks Darren! During the live Q&A itself I attempted to use the Javascript column but didn’t spend enough time tweaking to get it up & running… Then for some reason after the session I decided to try using a script and it worked so I kinda just rolled with it :sweat_smile: But I agree, using the …

Yeah, I think it’s generally better to keep everything self contained if you can. I used to use a lot of Apps Script when I first started with Glide, but these days I try to avoid it and will only use when absolutely necessary.

What’s the Google Script link?

Hi Rob, Thank you for the video. Helped a lot @Robert_Petitto I have a quesrion, What if in same dates there are multiple records, Thtne the count streak logic will show wrong values right? Because on same day there will be two, WHen we do relation then itll show wrongly 2, While on same day same…

Ya, the logic assumes one entry per day. Might need to add a array → unique elements column in there somewhere. Not sure about the bug. There might be a better way to achieve streaks nowadays. I’d need to tinker.
