Date & time
DATEVALUE function
Date text as a serial number. DATEVALUE works in Sheets with the usual arguments and results, on cells and on live data from the tools you connect.
Syntax
=DATEVALUE(date_text) | Argument | Use |
|---|---|
date_text | required |
On live data
In Sheets, DATEVALUE 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.
