BASE function

Number as text in a base (radix). BASE works in Sheets with the usual arguments and results, on cells and on live data from the tools you connect.

Syntax

=BASE(number, radix, [min_length])
ArgumentUse
numberrequired
radixrequired
min_lengthoptional

On live data

In Sheets, BASE sits next to live data from a connected tool: =data.orders.sum(total) totals a table, =list.orders(customer) spills a column's distinct values, and a linked table column such as table.orders[Total] is a range any function accepts.
