Using +(days): to calculate a date from text

[sydney22]

I’m trying to use +(days): to calculate dates from text. Let’s say I have a text “3 days ago”. I want to use an expression to represent 3 days ago from today, or 9/25/21.

First I used Current date/time +(days): then did a search for my data type and field (e.g., “3 days ago”). Next I want to convert it to a number and multiply it by -1, but Bubble is not allowing it. Any suggestions?

Try using “+(days): arbitrary text :converted to number”
