Notion: How To Create Unique IDs For Database Pages/Items

Demo Page: https://kingsleychimezie.notion.site/...

Sample Formulas:
Prefix with text: "SB_ID-" + id()
Prefix with link: "https://kingsleychimezie.notion.site/" + id()
Prefix with date:
A date property is needed, example “Created time”
formatDate(prop("Created time"), "YYYY_MM_DD-HH_mm-")
Remove 1st 4 chars: substring(id(), 4)
Keep 1st 4 chars (range): substring(id(), 0, 4)
Keep last 4 chars: substring(id(), length(id())-4)
Remove last 4 chars (range): substring(id(), 0, length(id())-4)
