Yes. I can see the need for this in a few of my automations/formulas.
This would be great for making conditional formatting for highlighting alternate rows or alternating groups of rows.
I strongly support this enhancement. Also wanted to put the workaround out there for anyone looking for it.
Using the auto number column you can achieve this.
lets say the auto number column is named AutoNumber, and the row number column is named Row
In your helper column you would put =MATCH(AutoNumber@row, AutoNumber:AutoNumber, 0), and make it a column formula.
This would give you the row number at all times after you save.
I want to be able to refer to the actual row number within a given sheet, as a value in a formula. This could be by utilizing a formula like "=@row", which would use the native row number and display that value.
Many people ask for this same need to reference a Sheet's row number for a formula which already shows within the Sheet, without having to add an extra column that also auto-increments.
Yes, however if the meaning of the number is something like, "Priority", anyone viewing the sheet will not infer that from the sheet itself as the number shown by default has no column heading.
I'd like to reference a row number as text, since the row can move around, e.g., "Please see row 123 for example", where 123 changes if the row moves on the sheet. I use cell addresses in Excel for same purpose.
Problem Smartsheet environments quickly become cluttered with inactive Sheets, Reports, and Dashboards that are no longer viewed or updated. This creates confusion for users and significant overhead for admins, especially in large or regulated environments. There is currently no native way to automatically identify, notify…
It would be beneficial to be able to leverage Smartsheet Automations to make REST API calls. This has many potential use cases, but one I could see is adding users to Smartsheet groups when the are added to a 'roster sheet' in Smartsheet. It would allow us to use the full power of Smartsheet's API within easy to use…
