Is there a way to recover rows that have been deleted from a sheet?
Hi,
Three options.
I hope this helps you!
Have a fantastic weekend!

Keep in mind that even with the backup:
1. You will not be able to restore any cell history.
2. You will not be able to put the comments back in with the correct layout. (time/date/user stamped, etc)
3. You will not be able to restore the original value of any system column where an index was created. (e.g. a unique ID or counter)
4. You most likely will not be able to restore the attachments correctly because even with a backup none of the attachments have markings to show what row they were attached to.
So yes, you may be able to restore the latest cell value, but you have lost much.
So glad you're on top of this issue, Brad. This is a major flaw in Smartsheet, and I am surprised that it hasn't been addressed yet.
I have a situation where rows in our archive got deleted so our metrics cannot be displayed for historical transactions through a sheet. I have an Activity Log export, but the data comes across as one row, no clear delimiter. Is there a way to easily turn that data back into a row in Smartsheet?
Example below:
Row 8129: "STOCK" Row ID: MvTkt8991 Requested Date: 04/14/2022 Lead Time: 7
Above I've put in four different fields
Primary Column = STOCK
Row ID = MvTkt8991
Requested Date = 4/14/2022
Lead Time = 7
I haven't had to deal with restoring data that was inadvertently deleted, so trying to understand what the most efficient option/s are to handle this without spending a ton of time on it.
Hi everyone! I need to set up an automation that is triggered within a set number of days before the date listed in a date field. I need the automation to send an alert email to a new hire at most 7 days before the start date. I know I can set the automation to send 1 week before the start date, but if the new hire's…
I’ve started building a form in Smartsheet using the Smartsheet Form Builder, and the responses are successfully populating my sheet. The challenge I’m running into is creating conditional logic within the form to narrow down selections. For example, if a user selects a state (such as Florida), I’d like the next question…
When I publish the calendar view, not all my tasks are showing up. I have all filters off. In my regular view on the sheet, the tasks are there.
