Moving Rows
Hello-
Does anyone know if there is a solution for when rows are moved to another sheet via an automation to keep the 'Created by' field with the contact data versus stating the "automation@smartsheet"?
Thanks!

Happy to help!
Glad to hear it, and yes, same here.
You'd only need to add something like this.
=[Created By]@row
Did that work?

Hi @Cinda.q
I hope you're well and safe!
You could add a so-called helper column in the source sheet to store the original information.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

All is great! Hope you are well too.
Thanks for confirming my thought on this. Do you have any recommendations on formulas to extract that data from the auto-system column for a 'Created by' field?
