Hello, if a user unsubscribes to an email notification in error how can that get reversed? Here is an example of the action log and I want that psdp@sutterhealth.org to be a subscriber not unsubscribe.
In our Smartsheet license, why was the ribbon toolbar for any created sheet made unadjustable???
How can I modify the ribbon toolbar to make it easier to work in Smartsheets - the ability to adjust the toolbar appears to have been removed(?). Ugh. The new rigid layout doesn't work well for the kind of work I do. Thank you!
How do I rearrange the ribbon toolbar back to the way it was?
The ribbon toolbar in my smartsheet used to show the summation-of-children sign as a standalone, located in the center of the toolbar. For some reason all analytic functions have now been moved to the right and underneath a tab with the icon: '...' This requires a click on the dots icon, followed by a click on the function…
Ability to text
I'm wondering if Smartsheet has the ability to send a text with details within a row, based on a contact name in that row. If not, do you have any suggestions what the best api/add on would be to accomplish this. There will be different contacts (different people to text) on each specific row. Ideally if some type of…
Is possible to move a Linked Cell around within the same sheet?
I have linked in several dates from an outside sheet and put it in the wrong column and I would like to move the linked cells one column to the right, but when I do that it loses the link. Is there a way to preserve the link but drag it over one cell?

Is it possible to create a report based on a dynamic view? For ex, I want to take advantage of the grouping feature of reports but only have it hit the data available to a user via a dynamic view. But when I create a report, the dynamic view is not available as a source sheet.

Is there a way to set up a notification of an uploaded document on one specific row?
I am new to the group and looking forward to learning more about utilizing Smartsheet! I have a colleague that wants to get notifications of new uploaded documents, but only to one row, not the entire sheet. Is this possible?
Why is the workflow running at 1am?
I set up a workflow that when a box is checked and it is a certain market, the workflow is to run daily by sending an email to specific group of people to alert that particular box is checked. The boxes are being checked at around 4pm but the automation email is not being sent until 1am or 3am the following day. Am I…
Gantt chart issue
I'm on a trial basis. I entered all my Tasks/Descriptions/Dates, etc and they look good in Grid view. However, when I switch to Gantt, one one of them runs across a variety of due dates. I'm sure I'm missing something
