Anyway we can automate SmartSheet to remove / delete rows.

I have a dump sheet that needs to be clear every day. Move row does not work, its adds another step into a simple task.

Why does your dump sheet need to be cleared daily if it's just rows you would want deleted? Actually deleting rows would be an enhancement request. They haven't created such a feature yet. I believe most people just have the row moved to a sheet they don't care about if the data isn't worth retaining.

So several sheets dumps items to these file when they are done or completed. That makes my main sheets clean. When I clear the row via automation, the newly dumped info are added as new row and not on the clear rows. Hope that makes sense.

Hi @heyjay
I hope you're well and safe!
I'd recommend doing it as now, but add an alert or alerts to the dump sheet to let you know when it's getting close to the limit and then delete them manually.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Reminder wont work well. I would like to have the rows automatically deleted/removed.

If you have Data Shuttle you can use it to clear your dump sheet automatically by uploading a blank excel

Thanks! That's an excellent workaround.
