Data Shuttle Upload: To use one-drive shared file as a Source Sheet

Mounika

Hi all,

I am using data shuttle, to upload the data from Excel into the Smartsheet sheet, and within the Upload workflow I am not able to find the find the shared folders where the source file is existing. In order to upload the shared file should I create my own folder and dump the source sheet into that?

FYI: I am able to upload the files that are under "My files", but not the folders that are not shared with me.

Can someone please help :).

Thanks in advance!

Hey @Mounika , you won't be able to access files in a folder that is not shared with you. You could copy the file into your folder as you mentioned. Alternatively, some users set up a "data shuttle sheet" within their sheets area and attach the files to rows to let Data Shuttle find them there.

I think the original poster is referring to files that are shared with them or in a folder shared with them. If an Excel sheet, for example, is shared with me on OneDrive, can I access it with DataShuttle? The pop-up on DataShuttle shows "My files" as well as "Shared libraries", but not the rest of the files I can access.

If not, is there a work-around that avoids needing to make a copy of the sheet and putting it in my own library?
