Hi,
Is there a way to "flip" a sheet keeping links so that cloms become rows and rows become columns?
Hi Trym,
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.
A possible workaround might be to use Excel or similar.
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

What is the purpose for this? do you want to keep the original sheet? How large is the sheet? If the sheet isn't crazy big you can do this with just 2 index formulas
That said I highly recommend against this. Smartsheet is organized by data type, which is dependent on columns. The only way transposing a sheet could possibly work is if every column was the same data type, and then you would drastically restrict what you can do with the information. Also as rows are added for the original, columns would have to be added for the new set.
If you are interested in a solution, why not post a snap of your sheet so we can help you develop what you need.
The reason for doing this is to prep data collected in a Smartsheet to be read more easily into an analysis tool. You cannot do anything but simple analysis in this tool, but if you want to deep dive on tickets, etc. You need to be able to read the data into a tool in a more normalized design. Transpose would allow you to do this quickly.
Also - can you provide an example of the 2 Index Formulas?
We’ve run into a limitation when using @mentions in Smartsheet Dynamic View comments . When a user is @mentioned from within a Dynamic View , the email notification they receive includes a link to the underlying source sheet, not the Dynamic View where the comment was made. This can be confusing—especially for users who…
I work in real estate and I want to build a custom dashboard/template to track where we are at with deals. The pre-made templates are all too specific and hard to use. I've created my own sheet/intake form but am looking for support on building the dashboard and how information is shown.
In the Best practices for System Admins page it says "Monitor activity: Use Admin Center reports to see what actions specific users have performed but I cannot find any such report. How are we supposed to decide whether to upgrade/downgrade them without knowing what action they took to become a Provisional User
