Sheet Summary Fields in Notifications
Is there a way to add sheet summary fields in a notification? It is possible to add cells by using {{Field}} but this doesn't work for the summary fields. Any inputs are much appreciated.

Hi,
Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
As a workaround, you could link from the Sheet Summary to a so-called helper column and then use that as a placeholder.
Would that work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

Thanks Andree. I will submit a request. The helper columns would work but not as cleanly as referencing a summary fields. I could always hide them too.

Excellent!
Happy to help!
You could use helper columns and hide them as well. That's what I do in most of my client solutions.

I submitted a request as well - seems crazy it hasn't been added yet.

Submitted this also.

I am looking for this as well, I have submitted an enhancement as well

@Genevieve P. Just mentioning you here ;)
I too would like this option. It's a good way to have summaries information sent to users. (In my case scrap-reporting, received in inbox as to report elsewhere (excel-file))

Would this be possible to do in another sheet?
So sheet X has all kinds of information and summaries.
Sheet Y has some(or all) summaries from sheet X.
It would 'freeze' information by sending that information from a set schedule to certain stakeholders (scrap report for the past week)
