Love this! One enhancement for document mapping would be that when a sheet is copied you wouldn't have to remap the PDF fields.

Thanks for the feedback @markkrebs! I highly recommend adding that enhancement request to our Smartsheet Product Feedback & Ideas page https://community.smartsheet.com/categories/smartsheet-product-feedback-%26-ideas

Hi Jason, We have followed the automation and document mapping guidelines but are consistently seeing an error in the automation block. However, when we edit the automation, there's nothing that appears out of order. The mapped document is just a fillable PDF, not a docusign workflow. We are able to successfully manually generate a document with that mapped pdf. Is there a permissions consideration we are missing?

Hi @Yanina Kupava, if a mapping becomes invalid, e.g., due to a column on the sheet being deleted which had been mapped, automated workflows leveraging the mapping will no longer run. This will also trigger emails to be sent to sheet admins, alerting them that the workflow cannot run. To correct this issue, update the mapping by removing the deleted column or choosing another column. Then, open the workflow manager, click the kebab menu next to any workflows which reference that mapping, and click Activate.
If your workflow is repeatedly being disabled, then we suggest running the workflow manually through the Document Builder UI to troubleshoot there.
If neither of these approaches solves the issue, I recommend reaching out to support to troubleshoot further.
I hope this helps!

This is a great enhancement. Now if only I could send just that document to contacts in a specific cell without sending links to the sheet.
