Dashboard reading data from same sell

I want to be able to display the data from the same cell in a sheet within the dashboard

The sheet is updated using forms which put new data on the top row, but the value of the cell I had selected in the top row (now the second row) remains in the dashboard, not the new value in the top row cell

How do I set the dashboard so it only reflects the values in fixed cell

Hi John,

You'd have to use a formula in a specific cell or maybe in the Sheet Summary section for the value to be updated automatically.

Would that work?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic day!

Thank you, could you please give me an indication of what this formula might look like

Sorry for the late answer. I missed your post.

The following will always show the latest value by looking at the Created date.

Try something like this.

=INDEX(Value:Value; MATCH(MAX(Created:Created); Created:Created; 0))

The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.

=INDEX(Value:Value, MATCH(MAX(Created:Created), Created:Created, 0))

Depending on your country, you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.

Did it work?

Have a fantastic weekend!

How to Share Single Workspace Folder?
I have a workspace that I created with two subfolders. A user needs to have access to only one of them but when I have that folder selected, I can only share the entire workspace with them. Is there a secret way that I can share the parent folder and ensure that any new files created will be shared with the same people? I…
I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports
I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports. The system does not allow me to choose a folder, and consequently a sheet to create a row report and suggests an upgrade to Business or Enterprise. I'm quite new to Smartsheet and feel a bit disappointed with this limitation, or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Alberto
Showing "stacked" data / Statuses of items by swimlane
I have multiple items that each have their own statuses and that roll up to "workstreams" or swimlanes. On the dashboard, I would like to show the progress of the items by swimlane without breaking it out into separate widgets for each. This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
