Hi- Is there any way to have an alert when something is added to sheet, not changed.
Nonetheless, i am trying to use this feature but i have not recieved any emails "alerts" stating that i have changed something.
Jessica,
Yes, there is.
Set up a column to update of the Created By (Date) column (hidden until you add it).
Have the Notification trigger when it changes.
The alerts aren't triggered by your own changes - sort of pain to test, but it is what it is.
Either work with a colleague to trigger them, receive them, add a special tester user with a different login, there are a variety of ways to get around this.
Notification only goes to shared users.

Fantastic advice Craig, I have alerts set up for when a new web form entry is submitted but that will surely come in handy as well. Thanks!
