Is it possible to use a workflow with a multi dropdown request type and multiple assignees?
Recently, I made a change to the logic for my request form and received an error message for the previous workflow - see screenshot. My users need to be able to choose one or more request types. Then, I would like to use the workflow to assign specific requests to one or more coworkers. Is this possible? If so, how can I…
Editor Permission
Does anyone know why Editor cannot insert columns in a sheet? What's the harm in that? I can see why you might not want someone to delete or rename a column, but inserting a column seems harmless.
leading numbers
I have a cell where different numbers are always entered. Most of the time, this field contains a leading 0. With a leading 0, the text is left-aligned, but with any other leading number, the text is right-aligned. I have a formula where this cell should be compared to another cell. However, this no longer works when the…
Card view sub tasks, can't see sub tasks of sub tasks

I created a report based on a date, which itself is the result of a formula based on a number + an Assigned Date. The report displays a count of each row that has a particular date. The issue is that the dashboard will not display the first row with a count (see screenshots). When I re-sort the data to display the newest…
Third Party Access without required new account
I invited my client to view a Gantt chart schedule. He says he can't access it without signing up for a SmartSheet account. I've used it in the past with other clients. How can my client gain access without signing up (which he cannot do due to his organization's policies)?
Dashboard Image Based on Data Value
Is it possible to display an image on a dashboard that is dependent upon a value in the cell of a sheet (not including the existing symbols within Smartsheet) and can change as the value changes? I have a sheet with a variable that can have 3 possible values. I'd like to show the value on a dashboard as an image rather…

Auto Generate Defect ID
I am using SmartSheet to complete UAT testing. I need to create a Defect IDs whenever a status is updated to Defect. This Defect ID needs to be a unique number so it can be tracked by partners. If the status is updated from Defect, the Defect ID needs to remain in the column. How would I accomplish this?
