In my project I am working with activemerchant gem where when I give credit card number it is stored as "xxxx-xxx-xxx-1111". Here there is an issue. While we try to submit / input the details, in the log my credit card number is displayed (ex: 1111-1111-1212-1111) as plain text but while storing in database it is fine.
While entering itself I want to see number in the log as "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-1111". How it can be possible? Please help.
For this the best would be to use config.filter option (config/application.rb). For example password is automatically filtered. You can filter cc number so it appears as FILTERED, but if you want to add custom where you show last 4 when you can use labda operator in config.filter statement
config.filter_parameters << lambda do |k, v|
if k == 'cc_number'
v.replace('[FILTER]') #here you cann add your logic to extract last 4
end
end
For me I do not see any value in adding last 4, so simple filter would do on this field.
hope it helps

I'm trying to remove a piece of text (Perfomance) from a column in Google Spreadsheet that contains (XX Performance) XX is a number like 89. I'm using:
=REGEXREPLACE(D:D, " Performance "," - ")
But no love...
enter image description here
Try this Example Sheet
=ArrayFormula(IF(D2:D="",, REGEXEXTRACT(D2:D, "[0-9]+")))
You can use the expression \D+:
\D matches any character that's not a digit (equivalent to [^0-9])
+ matches the previous token between one and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed
The formula will be like:
=REGEXREPLACE(D:D, "\D+","")
UPDATE
I did put it in another column otherwise it creates a circular dependency. The data is imported via API from another app.
Then you will need to create another sheet or use a hidden column to put that information and then use the regex on the column you want the final result.
I have raw data in my spreadsheet that comes from a Google Form that looks like the following:
(Cost) (Source) (Frivolous) (Medium) (Comments)
A B C D E
1 15.94 McDonalds Yes Credit was hungry
2 98.32 School No Check Paid for textbooks
3 843.00 Hospital No Check Surgery
4 0 asdff Yes N/A Ignore this one woops
5
6 23.99 Dentist No Credit Check up
I want this data to always be copied to a different sheet, but ONLY the data that matches a condition. That condition in this case is if Frivolous is No, meaning I only want on this separate page to track valid important spending.
My second page I want them to look like the following:
(Cost) (Source) (Frivolous) (Medium) (Comments)
A B C D E
1 98.32 School No Check Paid for textbooks
2 843.00 Hospital No Check Surgery
3 23.99 Dentist No Credit Check up
Notice how empty entries are ignored and also entries with Yes under Frivolous are ignored as well.
How would I achieve this? I have absolutely no idea how that would work since I've only been able to achieve this through filter which will not work for this.
I would like to say a few words in defense of Google Spreadsheets and show some great functions that will work, but they are not supported by [excel].
Query
First you may use simple query:
=QUERY(sheet1!A:E,"select * where C = 'No'")
This single short formula will give the desired result, there's no need to fill right and down.
Filter
Actually you may use filter too. This function seems to work too:
=FILTER(sheet1!A:E,sheet1!C:C="No")
Please, read more info about this functions:

Query and full Query Language Reference
You'll find many exciting things that could be done in Google spreadsheets.
Actually, I was having some trouble with [google-sheets] ArrayFormula function so I used an old-school formula with SMALL and INDEX function in its array form. In A2,
=iferror(index(Sheet13!A$1:A$99, small(index(row($1:$99)+(Sheet13!$C$1:$C$99<>"no")*1E+99, 0, 0), row(1:1))), "")
Fill both right and down.
So you were in fact correct that this could be solved in [excel] with an identical solution as [google-spreadsheet]. However, there are superior methods in newer [exce] (2010+) using the AGGREGATE function that [google-spreadsheet] does not support and I'm sure that [google-sheets] has more elegant functions that I am not recalling right this moment.
Look to Sheet13 and Sheet14 here for the working sample.
I have a google sheet cell that reads:
Ticket No. #3223
Ticket No. #2334
Ticket No. #4005
Is there a way to pull all numbers starting with #, but not include the #?
Results Example:
3223
2334
4005
Thank you for any assistance
Yes you can just use this:
=REGEXREPLACE(A1,"(\D+)(\d+)","$2"&char(10))
The parenthesis are a capture group so what I am doing is saying replace all non-digits \D+ in the first capture group, with all digits \d+ in the second capture group. The CHAR(10) at the end is what gives you a new line.
If you actually want them in separate cells you can change the &char(10) to a ; and then use split and transpose to stack them:
=TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(REGEXREPLACE(A1,"(\D+)(\d+)","$2;"),";"))
I'm using Eureka Forms for swift 2 and I'm trying to add a Suffix to a DecimalRow. My the reason is that in this row the user will enter the amount of litre consumed, so I would like the row to display the L at the end all the time
I did not find anything in the API docs to help me with this....
Thanks
Google Forms - I have set up a google form and I want to assign a unique id each of the completed incoming form inputs. My intention is to use the unique ID as an input for another google form I have created which I will use to link the two completed forms. Is there another easier way to do this?
I'm not a programmer but I have programming resources available to me if needed.
I was also banging my head at this and finally found a solution.
I compose a 6-digit number that gets generated automatically for every row and is composed of:
3 digits of the row number - that gives the uniqueness (you can use more if you expect more than 998 responses), concatenated with
3 digits of the timestamp converted to a number - that prevents guessing the number
Follow these instructions:
Create an additional column in the spreadsheet linked to your form, let's call it: "unique ID"
Row number 1 should be populated with column titles automatically
In row number 2, under column "Unique ID", add the following formula:
=arrayformula( if( len(A2:A), "" & text(row(A2:A) - row(A2) + 2, "000") & RIGHT(VALUE(A2:A), 3), iferror(1/0) ) )
Note: An array formula applies automatically to the entire column.
Make sure you never delete that row, even if you clear up all the results from the form
Once a new submission is populated, its "Unique ID" will appear automatically
Formula explanation:
Column A should normally hold the timestamp. If the timestamp is not empty, then this gives the row number: row(A2:A) - row(A2) + 2
Using text I trim it to a 3-digit number.
Then I concatenate it with the timestamp converted to a number using VALUE and trim it to the three right-most digits using RIGHT
Voila! A number that is both unique and hard-to-guess (as the submitter has no access to the timestamp).
If you would like more confidence, obviously you could use more digits for each of the parts.
You can apply unique ID numbers using an arrayformula next to the form data. In row 1 of the first rightmost empty column you can use something like
=arrayformula(if(row(A1:A)=1,"UNIQUE ID",if(len(A1:A)>0,98+row(A1:A),iferror(1/0))).
A few comments regarding the explanation provided by #Ying, which I will try to expand, as it is very good.
> Column A should normally hold the timestamp.
In my case, it is date+time stamp.
> 4. Make sure you never delete that row,
even if you clear up all the results from the form
That issue can easily be avoided by placing the formula in the header like this
={"calculated_id";arrayformula( if( len(C2:C); "" & text(row(C2:C) - row(C2) + 2; "000") & RIGHT(VALUE(C2:C); 3); iferror(1/0) ) )}
This formula provides an string for one cell, and a formula for the next one, which happens to be an array formula which will cover all the cells below.
Note: Depending on your language settings you may need to use ";" or "," as separator among parameters.
> 5. Once a new submission is populated,
its "Unique ID" will appear automatically
Issue
And here is the issue I see with this solution.
If the Google Form allows responders to Edit their responses, the date+time stamp will change and so the calculated_id.
A workaround is to have 2 columns, one is the calculated_id and the other will be static_id.
static_id will take whatever is on calculated_id only if itself has no data, otherwise it will stay as it is.
Doing that we will have an ID that will not change no matter how many updates the response experience.
The sort formula for static_id is
=IF(AND(IFERROR(K2)<>0;K2<>"");K2;L2)
The large one is
={"static_id";ArrayFormula(IF(AND(IFERROR(M2:M)<>0;M2:M<>"");M2:M;L2:L))
}
M or K -> static_id
L -> calculated_id
Remember to put this last one on the header of the column. I tend to change the color to purple when it has a formula behind, so I don't mess with it by mistake.
Extra info.
The numeric value from the date/time stamp differs when it comes from both or just one. Here are some examples.
Note that the number of digits on the fractional part differ quite a lot depending on the case.
