Hello,
I'm trying to find a way to automate my Reports. I want to create a Report that uses an entire folder under Data. So that when I add a new sheet to that Folder the Report automatically updates and I don't have to modify the Report after every new sheet. Another automation I would like to do is create a site directory in Data. Then be able to select a site from the directory and create a project for that site from a saved project template.

Have a fantastic day!

I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. 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…
