Hi everyone...
I'm making an integration between SS and GForms, but i need to bring the PDF attachments people upload in the form into Smartsheet.
Is that possible??
Hi Selina,
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's a great idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
More info:
The Smartsheet Sync Add-on doesn’t currently support the File Upload field in Google Forms. This field will populate in Smartsheet as an encoded text value. To workaround, this, use a text field in which people can paste the sharing link to a file stored in a cloud storage location, such as Google Drive
A possible workaround could be to use another integration. Is that an option or would it work with the suggested workaround?
Another workaround could be that they submit the form as usual and then you could have automation set to send an update requestwhere they can add the PDF.
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with my current Smartsheet experience. I have paid for a Pro subscription, I am the owner and administrator of my account and sheets, and I have confirmed I am logged into the correct account. Despite this, Smartsheet is not recognizing my Pro subscription, and I am unable to…
