Here’s how I got help with an expression that had mismatched open and closed parentheses:

This solved my problem.

Hope to see other examples of successful ChatGPT prompts. :slightly_smiling_face:

By the way, in case you are not aware of how ChatGPT allows conversations to be shared, you should see a sharing icon in the upper right part of your screen.

Postscript: I definitely recommend studying @MultiTech 's tips about utilizing ChatGPT. Personally, I’m still in the process of learning from them. My post and the kind of posts I’m proposing that others make is much simpler: Easy to imitate examples of successful ChatGPT prompts and conversations.

Cheers @Kirk_Masden ! I’m glad you’ve found these tid-bits helpful. (^_^)


Over the past few months I’ve been working on crafting an Ai agent (code named Appster) that’s a GPT4 powered assistant focused on AppSheet.

  • It’s been an exciting few months, and I can absolutely say that there is a TON of potential in this space.
  • The GPT4 model is especially helpful
    • ChatGPT (aka gpt3.5) not so much
    • Bard… even worse (which is entirely counter-intuitive; you would think a Google Ai would be really knowledgeable about Google products and documentation… but it seems not so much.)

The best advice I can give when working with an Ai on AppSheet topics:

  • When the Ai makes a mistake, or gets something wrong:

    • Tell the Ai that. Literally just like you’re saying to yourself,

      • “Well… that’s not right, it’s like it completely forgot to take X into consideration.”
    • Say that to the Ai.

  • The combined context of everything that came before (with your scenario specifics, formulas, column/table names, etc.), along with this “re-direction” for how to move forward, this is where the really good answers start to arise.

The Ai is always trying to follow your lead; make sure you’re telling it where you want to go!


I like to think about it like this:

  • You’re giving the Ai driving instructions on how to get where you want to get - even though you don’t have a clue how to get there.
  • But you’re still providing driving instructions…
    • So make sure they’re clear and include enough landmark information that someone who’s never been in that area can make it to where you’re directing them.
    • AKA: make sure you include enough column names, table names, reference structure information, etc. so that the Ai can make sense of things and provide quality advice/help.
