Is there a way to recover rows that have been deleted from a sheet?
Hi,
Three options.
I hope this helps you!
Have a fantastic weekend!

Keep in mind that even with the backup:
1. You will not be able to restore any cell history.
2. You will not be able to put the comments back in with the correct layout. (time/date/user stamped, etc)
3. You will not be able to restore the original value of any system column where an index was created. (e.g. a unique ID or counter)
4. You most likely will not be able to restore the attachments correctly because even with a backup none of the attachments have markings to show what row they were attached to.
So yes, you may be able to restore the latest cell value, but you have lost much.
So glad you're on top of this issue, Brad. This is a major flaw in Smartsheet, and I am surprised that it hasn't been addressed yet.
I have a situation where rows in our archive got deleted so our metrics cannot be displayed for historical transactions through a sheet. I have an Activity Log export, but the data comes across as one row, no clear delimiter. Is there a way to easily turn that data back into a row in Smartsheet?
Example below:
Row 8129: "STOCK" Row ID: MvTkt8991 Requested Date: 04/14/2022 Lead Time: 7
Above I've put in four different fields
Primary Column = STOCK
Row ID = MvTkt8991
Requested Date = 4/14/2022
Lead Time = 7
I haven't had to deal with restoring data that was inadvertently deleted, so trying to understand what the most efficient option/s are to handle this without spending a ton of time on it.
I'm trying to create a graph chart that captures monthly count of records by divisions (Northeast, West and Central) that should be stacked with a legend displaying each by different color like a presented in Excel. When I attempt to duplicate the process in Smartsheet I receive the following results. In Excel, I created…
Good afternoon, I am trying to utilize Linked Dropdown Columns for a manual process we have. We have many sheets that use a "Client Name" column with a dropdown list. Whenever a new client comes on or exits, we have to manually update every sheet that has a Client Name column and update the dropdown list. We do not have…
This should be straightforward information but I can't find it anywhere. How do the Automation triggers work for attachments? I assumed: An attachment is Added = New attachment An attachment is Changed = New version of existing attachment. But I just had an 'Added' attachment notification trigger when I uploaded a new…
