Deactivate temporarly all "Alerts & Actions"

Hi all,

i need to make some updates on my spreadsheets, that were not made on due time.

But i don't want to confuse people by triggering notifications and alerts of actions already completed.

Is there any way of deactivating all the "Alerts & Actions" at the same time, and then activating them again as soon as i got everything up-to-date?

I know i can do it manually, one by one, but my spreadsheets have around 15 rules each. It's a bit of time consuming to go through them all.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jose,

Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible at the moment, but it's a great idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

One possible workaround could be to unshare the sheets temporary or change the restrictions of Alerts & Actions. Both options depend on your specific setup.

Would that work?

Have a fantastic week!

Hi Andree,

That is actually a good idea (to unshare temporarly).

But yeah, i will make an Enhancement Request and hopefully, if it is worth it, we will have that functionality added in the future.

Thanks!

I am an Admin, but I cannot edit the workspace
I am already an Admin of a workspace, but when I enter the sheet to edit, it prompts me that I am a viewer. Has anyone encountered this situation? In the share tab, it shows that I am both an Admin and a viewer. How could a product from such a large company have such a BUG?😫
