How to retrieve previously saved sheet

I made some unfavourable changes and can't undo these. Is it possible to retrieve the previously saved sheet without these changes?

    Hi @FOLDY!

    You can request a snapshot of your sheet to retrieve a recent backup from a specific point in time. Here's how:

    1. Select File > View Activity Log.
    2. Adjust the Filters as needed and select Apply. You can filter by Actions, Collaborators, and Date Range.
      Note: The Request Snapshot option only appears after applying filters.
    3. Navigate to the specific change and select Request Snapshot.

    Smartsheet will email the snapshot to the sheet owner as an Excel file. This file includes only the sheet data, summary, and comments. Keep in mind that conditional formatting, attachments, notifications, cell history, and Excel-incompatible formulas (e.g., column formulas, @row, @cell, cross-sheet formulas) won’t be included.

    For more details, check out Request a sheet snapshot.

    If you encounter any issues while requesting a snapshot, our Support team will be able to assist with your request.

    I hope this helps!

    Cheers,
    Isaac.
