Generate Document

AAL

HI Smartsheet Help Team,

I created a form in the smartsheet and collected answers from people. Is there any way I can use "Generate Document" to plug in the answers back to the smartsheet form or I have to make a pdf editable form to generate the document? Please advise.

Thanks!

Paul Newcome

The document generator only works with fillable PDFs. To get row data back into the form, you will need to use a formula to manipulate the form URL and output a unique link in a cell. Below is a link to SS's help article to get started on URL manipulation, there are a number of threads here in the Community that do a deeper dive into it, and they are going to have some sessions regarding it at ENGAGE.

Thank you Paul. The URL thing is a little bit complicated for me, LOL. Well, I will try fillable PDFs. Yes, I will be there at ENGAGE 2023, hope to see ya and say thanks to you in person! 😉
