Is there a way to copy automation from one sheet to another?
Hi!
I am looking to copy automation that I have created on one sheet to another sheet - is it possible?

Sometimes, it can make sense to make a copy of the sheet with the automation and then go from there.

Do we have an update on if we can copy automation from one sheet to another without making a copy of the sheet. I can submit a enhancement required.

Another vote for this! We have projects running with long and complex workflows and thousands of tasks - so we need to break these down into multiple sheets (can be 20 or more).
It would be fantastic to be able to create a new automation and copy to multiple sheets rather than recreating 20 times over.
I think you can do something like this with sheet summaries?
So could that be applied to:
- Automation?
- conditional formatting?
- dropdown menu fields? - column headings
Even better would be a "dynamic" template sheet for the overall initiative which can be updated at source, and those changes spin out across multiple project sheets that have been created from that base template? -
Yes, please! Automation copy function in your account that can be applied to other Smartsheets you own at the least, or shared with other users in your organization would be nice, too. The "dynamic" template noted above would work great, too.
