Data missing when moving rows?
Hi there, Has anyone noticed an issue with data missing when moving a row from one sheet to another? I have an automation that moves older rows in one sheet to an archive sheet once a month. However, it appears that data in at least one of the columns is missing. Any ideas what might cause this? Thanks! Jackie

Archiving Sheets with Different Primary Columns
My workspace has 3 main source sheets. Each of these source sheets currently uses a different column for the primary column (two use ID Number, one uses Name since ID number is assigned later) but both columns exist in all sheets.

If it is approved I need the project lead to get an alert, the date to be recorded, and the status to be changed. I would prefer not to have multiple…

Automation action to Record <Current User>
It would be great if we could have a new Automation Action to 'Record the <Current User>'. This would be useful for checklists where we want to capture the User who ticked a checkbox column, as well as the date on which it was ticked. Currently, we can only use the 'Record a Date' automation action for the latter part of…

New Automation Action to record User in Contact List Column

This feature would greatly enhance approval workflows by minimizing manual input, making the process more efficient and reducing…

how to send 2 different forms
Good morning, New to Smartsheet to still learning. Is there a way to automate sending an "invite" to someone on a date in the Gantt chart followed by a "poll" to the same group on a different date? My current thought process is to create different columns with "XYZ" and if XYZ is checked, run the "invite" script, and if a…
