Re: Duplicate a Datamesh
The ability to copy an existing DataMesh as new. Allowing an edit on either the selection source sheet or target sheet; and it's data field mappings.
Use Case:
I have similar reports that have different targets; the data fields are the same. Currently I have to recreate the job from scratch. It would be a time saver if I could just copy the job and modify as needed.
Thanks

Hi @Protonsponge I don’t see that we have access to this unless we’re smartsheets employee?

He insists on eating rabbit poop like it's a treat. 🙄 I made this for my niece and nephew, because they get super grossed out when he licks their faces. Lol.
He eats it like its candy, but I still love him. 🙄

Lock date
When building a workplan using predecessors to create the timeline. It would be nice to be able to lock certain dates or create a date limit if there's a particular product that must be delivered before X date. That by editing any previous dates it wouldn't let you move one of those dates and elongate a timeline.

Re: Is it possible to create new line items on a Smartsheet from an Email?
@Sarah Donnelly Thank you! This may be a good workaround to avoid bringing on a 3rd party app. I will try it out. It's too bad there's no out of the box way to have an outlook email create a new row but really appreciate this option. have a great rest of the week :-)

Adding a fillable field to Approval
We are looking for a way that our approvers can add a comment to Approval notices they receive. Is there a way to add or include a fillable field directly into the Approval notice?
Our other option is to have the Approver approve/deny from the Approval notice and then to automate a request update that has the "Comment" field available for them to fill in. But this causes some repetition that may cause confusion - especially as it causes two emails rather than 1.
Any ideas or suggestions?

I know this suggestion is a few months old, but absolutely +1.

Add 'Time Added' field to user Schema
Need the ability to add a Demo workspace to all new users. Using 'Time Added', our API could poll users within a certain range, pull their ID and then add them to the Share.
Manually Adjust dates with Predecessors
I am new to smartsheets (as is my team), and so far we have been found smartsheets as an acceptable software solution. However, I recently discovered that I am unable to manually adjust dates if there is a predecessor. this functionality is a requirement. an non-negotiable (for me) requirement.
Here is an example: I have several tasks whose dates can be automated. However, one task must be manually scheduled. I need to be able to flip that task from auto to manually scheduled and have the gantt chart update appropriately. I also need a list that will tell me the reasons my start date is adjusting back if I change it.
In order to get around this, I have turned off predecessors and am now keeping the same project plan in MS Project so I can easily calculate dates. I am then wasting time transferring dates over to smartsheets. This is not an acceptable solution to this gap in your product's functionality.
Please fix this as soon as possible. This issue will rapidly drive me back to MS Project (as in I'll stop using it Monday at 8am rapid), I will also recommend to my organization that we NOT adopt smartsheets and I will advise against using smartsheets anywhere and everywhere I end up going - not out of pettiness, but because the software doesn't meet my needs as a project manager.
Please do not respond with "work arounds". I don't need work arounds I need functionality. Please fix this as soon as possible.
