NEW Help Article! Create dynamic dropdowns with Data Shuttle
Hi Community,
Did you know that you can use Data Shuttle to create dynamic dropdowns?
Dynamic dropdowns with Data Shuttle can automatically update a dropdown list in one location when that list has changed in another location.
I've seen some questions around this in the Community and wanted to call out the new Help Article that explains how to set this up:
Please feel free to leave comments on this article by using the "Was this article helpful" form to the right of the documentation:
And of course, please continue to post your ideas and suggestions for Data Shuttle and other Smartsheet features in the Smartsheet Product Feedback & Ideas topic!
Cheers,
Genevieve

Good solution, however Data Shuttle is a premium app so may not work for many. Would have been nice if we could define a Sheet at the Workspace level or Folder level as "the Source" for Dropdowns in any sheets within that scope (Workspace/Folder) and any updates to the values in that "source" sheet can be used to update dropdowns defined in the sheets using them, may be through automation workflow or so.

Does this also apply to Control Center? Kind of tedious to update Contact Lists manually since these tend to change quite often.

In Control Center, you can use Global Updates to adjust column lists. Here's more information: Control Center Global Updates: Columns
