Automatic Update Request
Hi everyone,
I want to set up a daily update request so my TODAY function can be refreshed everyday automatically without me having to refresh the page.
My challenge is, I don't know what my trigger should be.
Currently, we have an online form and this form is not used everyday, it could be days or even weeks in between a form submission. But I have automatic reminders set up that need to happen in between which depend on the today function being refreshed.
Thanks

Set up your Trigger to be "When a date is reached" ->Custom
Then select "Repeat every 1 day"
Then select the time for it to run
You could also use Zapier to populate a cell daily, or perhaps Bridge (new Smartsheet add-on) could do this as well.

Thank you @Dan Palenchar I set this up yesterday and received my request this morning. To confirm, do I need to open the email, or is the TODAY function simply refreshed by Smartsheet sending the email?

You’ll have to open the request and make a change for it to update the sheet.
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
