Hello,

I need to calculate the number of fields that contain a specific text. In excel it would be something like this:
=CONTAR.SI(A2:AG2;" NO OK")
Can you tell me what the expression with Arcade would be?

Thanks

You could just do Select By Attributes and look at the number of selected features, couldn't you? But to do it in Arcade, there isn't a direct equivalent to that function. We can recreate it with GroupBy and some SQL:

sql = `CASE WHEN field1 = 'NO OK' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END +
  CASE WHEN field2 = 'NO OK' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END +
  CASE WHEN field3 = 'NO OK' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END +
  CASE WHEN field4 = 'NO OK' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END`

var grouped = GroupBy(
  $layer, // or some FeatureSetBy… function, depends on how you're pulling this data into your expression
  'objectid',
  { name: 'no_ok_count', expression: sql, statistic: 'SUM' }
)
