Need way to add a counter on a dashboard for user "views" or visits

Mockup example below.

Doable??

I don't believe that's possible natively with Smartsheet. I suggest submitting a Product Enhancement Request.

I don't know of an automated way either. You could use the activity log, export to excel, and try to do some analysis off of it to record views on a frequency you wanted to.

As a workaround, you might set something up with the help of a third-party service like Zapier or similar. (count the clicks of the link and then that gets added to a sheet)

Would that work?

Have a fantastic weekend!

Here’s the setup: I have a sheet where, when I check a box, the row moves to a “Completed” sheet. In my Total column, I use a formula that sums a group of cells tied together via a parent/child…
