How to copy data from attachment to another sheet

Hello @Ayushi Saxena

I don't believe there is a way to move data from an attachment to a sheet unless it's a specific filetype. Even then, you would have to open the attachment and import it from another location outside of Smartsheet.

Here's a thread that covers some more of it. You can transition a sheet into an attachment in Smartsheet, but the attachment will be contained within the row of a sheet and not import the data to the cells like expected.

Hi Ayushi,

Not sure of the entire workflow that you have but you could use Data shuttle. It can read the data in the Excel sheet and extract rows and add those in a particular sheet in Smartsheet. You can have Google drive or Onedrive, etc as the Excel placeholder.

Kind regards,

Nikhil

Hi @Ayushi Saxena

I hope you're well and safe!

Can you elaborate on how you'd like it to work?

We could maybe parse the information from the attachment.

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic weekend!

Best,
