Re: Automatic Upload a file to "Proofing" from a Form
@Brian Bosché when is this feature launching. It is very needed in our workflow for uploading work to be reviewed.
Please can someone update us 😰
Moving file/sheet/report to other folder structure
Need to allow admins to easily move a report/file/etc. to another folder structure.
Generation of an embed code for Brandfolder Portals
Brandfolder Portals are an incredibly useful way to organize and share curated assets. It would be a game-changer if there were an option to generate an embed code for a portal, allowing users to seamlessly display portal content directly on a webpage.
This functionality would eliminate the need to link out to the portal separately, making it easier to provide public access to curated assets within the context of an existing site—ideal for media kits, event branding, photo albums, partner resources, and more.
Embedding would improve the user experience, increase visibility of brand assets, and offer a cleaner, more integrated presentation.
Re: ✨ Share and vote on product ideas and help shape the future of Smartsheet
Below are critical opportunities from an audit and end user adoption perspective.
Activity Log
Should have other filtering option capabilities. Right now, I can only designate Collaborators.
API
Need get_rows() capability to create more complex Python API scraping which scales the value of existing API capabilities.
Microsoft Power Automate
No option for "When a row is changed", "Copy Row", "Move Row", "Get Activity Log", "Get Sheet Column Formulas", "Get Row Formulas", "Get Column Formulas", "Get Sheet Summary Metrics", "Get Sheet Summary Formulas", etc.
Data Integration Sources
Cannot integrate enriched, merged multi-system data from SQL. MySQL, SFTP, etc. Forced to create and maintain PY scripts manually to pull data in via Data Shuttle.
Pivot App
Should have filter capabilities and not be forced to select a measurable field.
Media Hosting
Smartsheet direct hosting of media content for those that do not have corporate (e.g., Vimeo, YouTube) accounts. No 3rd party (e.g., YouTube).
Re: HYPERLINK Function
Been working with Smartsheet for a while now.. cannot believe the amount of times that a problem I've had could have been easily solved by a =HYPERLINK() function but instead I had to do some crazy workarounds. Add this please.
Re: Direct Email Approval Button for Smartsheet Automation Workflows
No brainer add…shocked this is not a core piece of the product
Re: Direct Email Approval Button for Smartsheet Automation Workflows
Yes, this feature would be so helpful in obtaining approvals from busy leaders. It removes one more barrier for them to actually complete the approval.

How to put a date and time together in a column?
Hello, i am fairly new to smartsheet and Formulas, i was using a Created date column in Vlookup but looks like that column is in TEXT and is not being read as a Date and time.(maybe i am wrong).
i have managed to use a couple of formulas to bring out the date and time in 2 separate columns, i want to put them together now so it reads as the actual date and time.
for example, the date column has 18/02/24, and Time Column has 10:57 AM. i want the result to be 18/02/24 10:57 AM and it also should read as a date and time value so i can use it to subtract it from other date and time values to calculate the difference and also use in a V lookup formula
i hope this makes sense.🙏
Allow Dynamic References in the "Generate with AI Tools" Tab
It would be really beneficial if we were able to use @Column and/or @Cell references within the various AI translation commands.
The specific use case I have in mind is related to translations. My sheet is setup with an 'English (Source)' column, and then each additional column is titled with the corresponding target language (ie. 'French', 'Italian', 'German', etc.).
The workflow for doing multiple languages would be much more efficient if the command could be simplified to something like, "Translate 'English (Source)' to @Column" where 'English (Source)' will always reference the desired text to be translated, and the @Column reference would dynamically populate based on the title of the column in which your active cell is currently located (ie. 'French', 'Italian', 'German', etc.).
Seeing as when you begin typing in the command box, the values it suggests are naturally all of the Column Headers, it seems like the different pieces are in place to potentially streamline that functionality a little bit.
