Hello: Why can't smartsheet export any image columns into an Excel Export? This seems straightforward and would be super helpful. Can anyone answer what this is not possible? Thank you.

Images are lost when exporting a report or Smartsheet into Excel. It would be good if they weren't lost.
This would be very helpful for our workflows.
The only way our team can currently do this is by using the backup functionality to export the images in a folder and then manually add them back in. Which is a big time sink.
Absolutely want embedded images. We had to stop using the spreadsheet because we need image referencing the row.
Really is a pain not being able to have images embedded when downloading a smart sheet to excel. Surely this would be an easy enough update to make and would massively improve workflow.
100%. Want embedded images accessible in excel download. This would be a game changer for my job.
That’s a really common request, and unfortunately it comes down to how Smartsheet handles image attachments. Images in cells aren’t stored as embedded objects the way Excel expects, so when you export, they’re treated more like references than actual files. Right now, the export only includes the image links, not the images themselves. A workaround some people use is downloading attachments in bulk or using the API to extract images separately, but it would definitely be great to see native image export added in the future.
I noticed this the other day and tested Ctrl + M – it does not work. I submit ticket to Smartsheet support – they told me that’s expected behavior because it’s not currently available even though it still shows as keyboard shortcut in the menu🙄 and told me to submit new product idea. Please add this keyboard shortcut to…
Summary of Issue All team members work a standard 7.5‑hour day, but only a portion of that day is allocated for project work (e.g., 25%, 50%, etc.). In Resource Management, however, the system currently interprets allocations as a percentage of the full 7.5 hours, instead of the project‑eligible portion of a person’s day.…
Dashboard widgets are currently mostly static. I can display counts and charts, but I cannot click into a specific part of a widget to drill into the underlying records. It would be a big usability improvement if widgets supported interactive drill-down. For example: Click a bar segment (or stacked segment) to open the…
