Email to Smartsheet to create new row in Sheet

Casey DuBose (Jalubro Consulting)

I'd love to have a discreet email address tied to a sheet so that I could forward it emails as a way to create new tasks. I can't get force people to use a form so it would sure be handy to just set a rule that forwards to an email address.

The outlook plugin takes far too many steps and doesn't work if you are using it to access a G-Suite account.

Anyone found a solution for this? I'm pretty sure it is not native functionality.

This is one thing Zapier does that I like along with their email parser which is a neat tool.

If there’s a zap pro I'd love to get the quick tips on setting it up. Willing to collab with whoever else wants it done.

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? I need to be able to send an email and create a new row.

Following! I also need this functionality!

We wrote an email parser for CORELOT.

Here's what it does:

Whenever an email is forwarded to the "Handler Email" it is pushed into a sheet:

Subject: Posted to Row (Primary Column)

Body: Put in Row Comment

From: Put in contact Column

Attachments: Added to Row Attachments

(One Row per email)

The only thing I don't like is that we automatically pick up all of the picture attachments when someone has a picture-rich email signature.

How would you have it work? @Steve Spradlin @sunbeltkelye
