Maximum Downloads

Has anyone ever encountered this issue? We sent out a single line from SmartSheet that held four attachments to approximately 180 individuals to download. For most it worked wonderfully. Now, we're getting this message: "Unable to download file. The download URL has exceeded the maximum number of uses."

Of course, I now realize it would have been more practical to combine the four files into one pdf, but there was a point to show/document four attachments.

Is there a maximum number of download per URL? If so, what is that number?

Thanks,

Beverly

Hi Beverly,

Yes—there is a maximum. It's 100 downloads or 30 days before the attachment links expire.

Is there a way to track who clicked on the link or shared it?

Hi,

Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible at the moment, but it's a great idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

I am currently running a project with 200+ people, and whenever we post new documents an automation alerts all team members (nightly). We now have complaints regarding the maximum downloads coming in daily.

I am thinking about carving the automation up into smaller audiences, e.g. using a filter attribute like the user's department name or project workstream. It would be transparent to them, but creates work for us to manage in future projects. Does anyone know of a cleaner solve for this?

Sheet shows BLANK rows, there is a "MOVE rows" worflow, is that why?

I cannot think of any other LOGICAL reason why this would happen. The users enter the data from an Intake Form, it gets placed onto this sheet. They do…
Sorting not working?
Hi. I have a sheet where I am sorting dates by ascending order. But the sorting functionality doesn't seem to be working. Instead of bringing all items with date values to the top of the sheeting and sorting them in ascending order, it leaves a gap. Is it a result of the "Next Review Due" column containing a column formula…
