Auto populate data in Forms

IanM

I too am having the same issue, is there certain common errors when trying to use this function?

Hello,

Has the original function in this post been added to Smartsheet?

@Andrée Starå I'm having the same issue as Nilesh was having above (and Julie) - my form isn't populating with the actual data, just with 'ColumnName@row' from the formula - wondering if you could share what the solution was?

Hello! I'm having this same issue. It looks like you had resolved it in the past, but I'm not seeing any resolution on this string. Can you help me? Thanks!

Hi all,

If you're using a formula to create a URL in a cell, keep in mind you'll need to use formula formatting as well, versus typing directly in the cell.

You'll need to start with an = sign, then put your current form URL in quotes, then use + to add on the values

For example:

="https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/YourFormURL?ColumnName=" + ColumnName@row

Cheers,

Genevieve
