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!
I have set up a form with conditional logic to display the fields I want to display upon select criteria and that is working. However, at the beginning of the form I only want 2 fields to display and the rest to be hidden. Based on the below logic I thought the form would only show the first 2 fields selected but that is…
Hello, I am not sure i understand what the scheduler means in the data shuttle I have set up. Does the below mean that my scheduler will run every hour from 5 am to 8 pm each day? I need it to update often but not sure if this will do it or not. Thank you to those that are smarter than me :-)
I have requested for a snapshot, but I have not received the email yet. Any idea why and what do I need to do?
