Hi all,
I have a set of 5 "Alerts & Actions" that I need to set up on 32 different sheets.
Is there a way of "copy and paste" those rules, instead of manually set them up on each sheet?
Thank you.
Not through the UI.
The API does not allow CREATION of Alert Rules, but it does allow UPDATE. I have not had to test how this fully works yet, but it is on my list.
Have the 32 sheets been around 'for a while'? Sometimes in cases like this it is easier to bring over the data from the 32 sheets to 32 new versions that have the functionality (like Alerts, Conditional Formatting, Filters, and maybe others) than it is to recreate that functionality again. Seems backwards, but ... been there.

Hi,
I see what you mean.
Well, it doesn't save me as much time as I wanted, but at the end of the day it will save me some time.
Thanks for you help brainstorming this particular one.
Depending on where you are with your sheet creation, the most effective way to do this is to do a 'Save As New' from your original sheet. In the 'Save As New' dialong box, you will see a 'Notification & Sharing Options' dropdown. Make sure you check the 'Notifications and Alerts & Actions Permission Settings' box. This will replicate your Alerts & Actions to all new sheets you create.
Let me know if there are additional questions on this.

Well, I created the sheets first, then I choose which rules should I apply on them.
Now I understand that I should've done like you are saying.
Next time I know how I should do.
Thanks!
Good afternoon, I work at a community college and we don't currently have a CRM solution that will help me with the work I am doing. I am trying to create something to track current and future contacts on an organizational level as well as individual. One company might have only one contact but in the case of a larger…
Would someone need View permission to a worksheet in order to see the data presented in a report?
I have a form and the first question is a required field. However, I have five entries (out of approximately 400) that have come into the sheet with no data for this required field. Has anyone seen this before? Any clue how this happened? Here's what I've checked: blank space is not an option (form won't let me submit)…
