How can I create a rule that automatically sorts new rows by date?

When a new row is added automatically based on the date via an automated function, it is placed at the bottom of my sheet, while all existing rows are sorted by date. How can I create a rule that automatically sorts new rows by date?

You would need to leverage the API to automatically sort a sheet, but a Row Report will be automatically sorted.

Hi Paul, Thank you for your quick feedback. I am not quite sure to understand what you mean by "leveraging the API"

Smartsheet allows users on certain plans to access the API to basically write a custom code to accomplish certain tasks that may not generally be possible within the core app itself.
