Hi
is it possible to send an automatic update request every 2 weeks without changing anything in the sheet to a contact in a column?
Many thanks
Peter
Hi Peter,
Yes, probably but I'll need some more details. Can you describe in more detail what you want to do?
I hope this helps you!

It's simple
i have a todo list (screenshot). The task is delegated to someone -> contact in "delegiert an". Now smartsheet should send an update request ever 2 weeks to the contacts in "delegiert an". These guys have to update the "erledigt zu", add a comment, upload a file or request with no changes.
many thanks
Ok. That's what I thought.
Look here
Update request every two weeks

not exactly. With this way i must make an update request in each row and i have to set the contact manually. I want smartsheet to do this without interaction and send the update request to the contact in the "delegiert an" column. This contact may change or there will be more than one contact.
Ok. As a workaround, you could set up an Alert & Action > Update Request that sends on a date in a specific cell, and for each row, on the sheet, you link that data from the top date (first date) that you update every two weeks.
Would that work?
correct ... but i have to update the date every two weeks manually or is there an other way ... My intention is to make no manual entry.
It could probably be automated thru Zapier or a similar service. You could also have an Update Request for the first date go to you, and you could update it that way. Almost what you want
If you don't require an update but just FYI to someone, you can can use (while inside the sheet: File-send as attachment:
Happy to help!
Have a fantastic week!
Hi all, I want to utilize the Smartsheet Dynamic View. Considering the "editor access" type in smart sheet I wonder if the users are aimed to edit the view, should have the editor role? If I am not shared the file with them, will they stay as a Smartsheet user with viewer settings but are able to view the file? Thank you!
I can create a Chart in Dashboard from sheet well but from Report is not working now. I just try with simple Report (just contain 2 column Primary and Number) but cannot make the chart. Is there any changes recently right, because I haven't worked with Smartsheet dashboard for a long time and I remembered that I could do…
I shared access to a user to a specific folder under workspace A (folder is 2025-09-Service Factory). However, I can see that he's shown to have access to all the other child folders under 02-ACTIVE Initiatives. Why is that when I only shared out one folder? Is there a way to only share access to users to ONLY specific…
