Workflows and reports

Ian Thomson

Our users do all of their work and updating in a report of a master sheet (site list). I can only automate workflow alerts from the source sheet, and so the alert email references/directs them there, but I'd like to direct them straight to the report itself.

Is there a way to do this? Thanks!

Excellent!

Happy to help!

Unfortunately, it's not possible to change the text of the hyperlink in Smartsheet at the moment.

Hi @Ian Thomson

Yes, but not to the specific row.

You can add the link to the report to the Workflow and hide the sheet link.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Thanks, Andree - this should work; however is it possible to edit a hyperlink (i.e. show specific text instead of the URL) in the text box. I have tried editing the link text in another platform and pasting into this Workflow text field but it doesn't work for me.

Any thoughts would be great!
