I have created core worksheets, from these (which have the links) I have created templates.
How do I make sure the links follow the path?
Meaning when I save the Template as 1231 Test from 1231 Template.
???? GRRRRRRR
Hi,
Can you explain more in detail because I'm not sure what you mean?

So I have created a worksheet. I took that and created a template. When you open the template, (you have to save as a new), so I tried just saving it as the same name and dropping it into a new folder. When I do that, the links are broken, It will update the "template" sheet not the new one I created.
Hope that helps
I'm not entirely sure what you mean still, but I think that you want to have links (cell-links?) intact when you create a new sheet from the template or sheet? Correct?
When you open a template, you should get a preview of it and then chose "Use Template" and then chose a name and some options.
When you have a sheet (sounds to me that is what you're using) and chose "Save as New" you also get options for name, data and formatting options (make sure that you chose the right options)
If you want to edit a template, you must use the original sheet and then create a new template or create a new sheet from the template and save that as a new template.

I created 2 sheets. One sheet has links to the other. Now when I choose to save them as new to drop in a new folder, the links do not stay, I have to recreate the links once I open them in the other folder. Make sense?
Ok.
Are they placed in a folder already? If yes, you should "Save as new" from the folder and that will keep the links intact. If no, place them in a folder.
Understood, they are in a folder and when I go to "save as new" I put in a different folder and I lose the links still. Getting frustrating as I need to be able to do this since the original 2 are the templates to use and save as new with another client name.
Is everything in a workspace?
Is it sheets or templates?
Can you share them with me?
yes in a workspace
sheets
how do I share with you? I assume just add you on the share?
shared!
Have any of you created a Smartsheet that would show the savings for a project by the month? In other words, if I saved $1200 annually and the project ended in say March, then the savings would go $120 per month, Mar 2025-Feb 2026. I have done it on Excel sheets manually, but I think there should be a way to do it with…
Hello team! Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. I am trying to set up an automation that will send an email reminder one time when Next Update Date = 60 days, then another automation at 30d, etc. The key is I only want it to send the reminder one time when Next Update threshold is reached. Is this possible?…
Has anyone found a workaround for sharing Smartsheet reports externally without giving access to internal data? I currently have to download the data and transfer it onto excel to create a pivot table for our client and I want to find an easier way to do so. I also already create a dashboard for our client, but I wanted…
