Hello,

I would like add a filter to import Data (Date) which is greater than a date.

Is it possible?

    Hi @Eric Laitenberger

    No, I don't believe you can use TODAY in the filter, it would need to be a UTC date. However, you could add a column in the source sheet with a formula to identify the criteria you need, then filter the DataShuttle workflow based off the output of this formula.

    In regards to column names, you can have different column names in your Source data and in your Smartsheet Sheet, however you'll just need to make sure that you map the correct column to each other in the Mapping section of the workflow.

    Cheers,

    Genevieve

    Hi @Eric Laitenberger

    Yes, you can use the Filter tab in Data Shuttle to filter by dates, however the date will need to be entered in UTC format:  (YYYY-MM-DD) 

    Try adjusting your formatting in Data Shuttle to be: 2021-01-01

    Cheers,

    Hi, yes perfect.

    And is it possible to put a function? EG: "TODAY-1" instead of a date?
