Control Center - Global Update for Conditional Formatting
Options
We would love to have the capability to push new conditional formatting using global update for provisioned project sheets. We have over 200 projects and whenever we get new ask for new conditional formatting (since things change all the time), it's a huge manual hours to go through and update each provisioned project with conditional formatting on source sheets.

Yes, please add this feature. Such a time sink!

It's disappointing that this isn't on the horizon. If someone wants new conditional formatting or to change any conditional formatting across all projects - say, that everything with a due date in the past gets red text and we need to change it so that it only turns red if it's 3 days overdue - then we have to manually add this condition to every. single. project. sheet. from. scratch. that is several DAYS worth of work across all the sheets we use. being able to push out conditional formatting globally or to all sheets in a given folder or workspace would allow us to move ahead in about 5 minutes.

Big upvote from me on this. In general, I would love to see more "control" in control center. In theory, anything we can set in a sheet, would like to be able to adjust it in control center.
- Conditional formatting
- Base formatting (by column)
- Have it work with sheet summary fields
- Sheet automations / notifications
Anything that gets changed in the template and needs to be pushed out to all the provisioned projects. It would be awesome.
Here are some other posts addressing the gaps in CC ability to format/update sheets:
Control Center Global Update and adding a new external reference — Smartsheet Community
SCC Global Update - Add number formatting — Smartsheet Community
Control Center: Allow word wrap as a column option — Smartsheet Community
TBH, I have quite a few updates I would like to push out through CC, but have been holding off knowing that there will be gaps in what it can do, and there will be a lot of post push cleanup.

Yes we definitely need this!

Definitely need conditional formatting as a possibility for global updates.
-
This!!! We use formatting to help indicate where information should be entered or where it is not needed. Updating each sheet takes forever!

I agree, this is a major need, and as part of the Enterprise package. I do not want to see a feature like this as part of the Premium packages. My company does not have the premium packages, so that means I am the one that does all the manual updates.

This is an essential feature we would love to have in control center. If there are many projects it takes a lot of time especially as setting conditional formatting (sometimes multiple per sheet!). Updating conditional formatting is one of most time consuming activities. Control Center's essential feature is to reduce maintenance efforts on a portfolio level. So I am wondering that this is not yet part of the package. Definitely a must have requirements compared to new released features like AI, dashboard coloring, etc… A must have vote from my side. Thanks to the Smartteam product management for considering any implementation. To everybody that is using Control center→ Please vote for this feature
