Is there a way to revert SmartSheets?

Rikap

Hi! I was working on the Project Charter - and didn't realise making changes would end up messing my original sheet - is there a way to revert it to its original form?

Hi @Rikap

I hope you're well and safe!

You can check the Activity Log and request a snapshot (depending on your license).

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Depending on your plan, the sheet owner/admin may be able to access the activity log and request a snapshot of the sheet prior to the changes. You will be sent an excel file that you can import, or use as a reference to manually reverse the changes.

You can access the activity log via an icon in the menu the right of the sheet.

There are instructions here

Good luck 🍀

I hope this works for you.

If not, someone may have backups scheduled- see here for more -

Thank you - is there a way to copy automation from one sheet to another?

Excellent!

Happy to help!

Regarding copying workflows between sheets.

Unfortunately, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!
