Learn how to use Google Apps Script within Google Sheets to clear the contents of a cell when another cell is edited. This video relates to the Dependent Dropdown Chips, so if you haven't seen this, you can check it out here:    • Dependent Drop-down Chips in Google Sheets  

Google Apps Script used in this demo:

function onEdit(e) {
// Extract relevant data from the event object
var range = e.range;
var sheet = range.getSheet();

// Check if the edit is on the correct sheet and row
if (sheet.getName() === 'Sheet1' && range.getRow() === 2) {
if (range.getColumn() === 2) {
// Clear cells C2:D2 if column B (2) is edited
sheet.getRange('C2:D2').clearContent();
} else if (range.getColumn() === 3) {
// Clear cell D2 if column C (3) is edited
sheet.getRange('D2').clearContent();
}
}
}
