Bulk Backup and Export Enhancement for Smartsheet Workspaces

Feature Enhancement Request: Bulk Backup and Export for Smartsheet Workspaces

I would like to propose a feature enhancement for Smartsheet's backup and export functionality. Currently, administrators must manually back up and export each workspace separately, which is extremely time-intensive, especially for organizations managing multiple workspaces. To improve efficiency, I suggest adding a Bulk Backup and Export feature that allows administrators to select multiple workspaces and back them up simultaneously. This would streamline the backup process, reduce manual workload, and enhance data security by ensuring that all critical workspaces are efficiently archived with minimal effort. A scheduled or automated backup option would further improve usability, helping teams maintain a reliable record of their Smartsheet data.

  • Instead of having to select/setup backups for each workspace or sheet, could we select multiple worskpaces (or all) and have the actions available to setup backups.

    Reason is we want ALL sheets/data properly backed up and current process has extra steps which means some workspaces/sheets might not be setup properly for backups.

    There seem to be a lot of requests for proper enterprise backup. As an admin for a company using Smartsheet, it is critical that we have the ability to backup all sheets/workspaces for our account.

  • Hi @Paaamy , our team has built a backup app for Smarthsheet which might be exactly what you’re looking for. It offers daily, automated backups of all your Smartsheets, one-click restores, historical versioning, smart alerts, Google Drive sync, and enterprise-grade security (SOC 2, GDPR)

    Yes It is quite frustrating to have to remember to request to do this on all workspaces.
