Alerts and Notifications

Hi everyone!

New to Smartsheet and trying to figure out the automation aspect - which is what really sold us on the software. So, I have a question - is it possible to send out notifications/alerts based on specific changes within a row? For example I have two tasks - Demo1 and Demo2. I need a notification to be sent out when both of these tasks are complete. I feel like I'm missing something. It looks to me like I can only setup alerts/notifications at a sheet level.

Thanks a bunch! You'll be hearing from me a lot - I'm sure!!

Hi Dawn,

Welcome!

Yes, it is. Are the tasks on separate rows or the same row?

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s) or some screenshots? That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)

Happy New Year!

Best,

Yep.

You can make a helper column, like a checkbox, and put in an IF formula that has it check off if both of your columns meet the criteria you want. Then, you can have your notification be triggered when that helper column changes to checked.

On the dashboard, I would like to show the progress of the items by swimlane without breaking it out into separate widgets for each. This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
How to Share Single Workspace Folder?
I have a workspace that I created with two subfolders. A user needs to have access to only one of them but when I have that folder selected, I can only share the entire workspace with them. Is there a secret way that I can share the parent folder and ensure that any new files created will be shared with the same people? I…
I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports
I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports. The system does not allow me to choose a folder, and consequently a sheet to create a row report and suggests an upgrade to Business or Enterprise. I'm quite new to Smartsheet and feel a bit disappointed with this limitation, or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Alberto
