Automate Daily Clearing of certain column in a sheet

Blake Anderson

I was wondering if it is possible to automatically clear certain columns in a sheet based on a date or change trigger. We are using Smartsheet as a parts database and after filling out the Quantity, Job# ect. and checking a box the row is added to another sheet to be approved and ordered. I would like to clear these columns daily so parts can be ordered again without having to clear these columns manually.

Another option if you have developer resources could be the Smartsheet API.

Hi @Blake Anderson

The third-party service, Zapier, is an excellent option for this scenario.

Is that an option for you?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hi Andree,

Never tried it before but I will check it out. Was hoping Smartsheet had something native available.

Thanks,
