Automation Where One Row Changes Other Rows
Hello Smartsheet Community! New admin here and I'm not sure if the answer to this question is simple or complex. Basically, I want to build an automation that when a top level row in the hierarchy changes Status (column) to "Complete", I want other rows to update their Status as well. My logic uses a hidden column Trigger,…
Copy rows from one sheet to another including the attachments

Import Excel file through Workspace App
I am trying to import information from an Excel file into an existing Smartsheet. I have a couple of questions. Does it matter which column I designate as the primary column when importing a file?

Current User Chart from Metric Sheet Data
I am trying to create Current User Charts for a Dashboard. I know these charts are typically made by creating a report. However, I am dealing with more data then the report will support filtering. Currently, I have 4 sheets with a total of 54K rows (total across the 4 sheets). So I thought about creating a Metric Sheet and…
Deleting Columns

Each stage has an ASSIGNED TO contact and COMPLETED date. The Finalizing date will be the FINAL/END date. We want to track turnaround time per ASSIGNED TO…
Plan change with error message
I accidentally upgraded to Business plan, then cancelled it near the end of the billing cycle, and rejoined as Pro plan. Since then, I can see all workspaces and sheets, can search and download sheets, but cannot open any sheet and receive a generic error message to all sheets. What can I do to resolve this? This is quite…
What is the best way to create a form, where you want to capture info on multiple occasions?
We are creating a three part learning series for HCP's and want to use one form to capture information presented during each visit.

Data deleted in error earlier today, can I get it back? (Undo button not active)
Earlier today it looks like several columns of data had the "clear contents" action taken in error. Is there a way to get that back other than using the snapshot feature and manually adding it back to a sheet with conditional formatting etc.? thanks in advance for taking a look1
