Need a way to proactively search (query a 'where used') on a column name to see all the Reports its used in.

Would be very helpful to be able to see a summary list of all the Reports that are using information from that Sheet. Currently the only option is to see where a column in a sheet is being used in a formula in another sheet. But when trying to update column name in a Sheet, there's no way to generate a list of all the Reports where that Sheet column appears.
Totally agree, this is needed.
I want to make some structure change to particular sheet. (Especially Primary column) However, before I can change that, I need to find out how many and what reports are using this sheet as it's source to make sure nothing will break.
Anything used in cross-sheet reference formulas are easier to find out but Smartsheet support said there is no way to know what reports are running using that particular source sheet.
As we build more solution and share the source sheet with others, sometimes structure change is needed but I'd love to avoid breaking reports, so I'd like to find out before I make the change. This function would come in very handy especially I inherited this sheet when I go hired.
Thanks!
Yes!!! I need to do this today! =-)

In addition, we need a 'where used' feature for Report Filters as well. The filters continually break, resulting in broken charts because we can't easily query where those columns are used.
Although we are extremely proficient when it comes to reducing load on our smartsheets (we use pivot, data mesh and data shuttle extensively), we still find ourselves hitting capacity limits (mostly because of the number of columns in conjunction with some pretty complex formulas). Breaking up data between sheets and…
Be able to print and/or export Workflow Automations in PDF and/or export to Visio. this would be used for document control and troubleshooting aid
It would be beneficial to be able to leverage Smartsheet Automations to make REST API calls. This has many potential use cases, but one I could see is adding users to Smartsheet groups when the are added to a 'roster sheet' in Smartsheet. It would allow us to use the full power of Smartsheet's API within easy to use…
