Data Shuttle error message, locked resource
I keep getting this Smartsheet Data Shuttle message, "The workflow has been executed with an error. The resource you are attempting to access is locked" I am not in the sheet. Why? I am the owner of these worksheets. What do I need to do to resolve? Sometimes the error resolves itself though.

Keep Search Text in Data Shuttle Workflows List
I have well over 100 Data Shuttle workflows, and they are cumbersome to work with. I appreciate the ability to search, but I've found that I have to re-enter my text in the search field over and over again as I'm moving in and out of workflows.

Import data directly into existing sheets in table view
February 16, 2026 We've all been there — you have a spreadsheet full of data sitting on your desktop, and you need it in Smartsheet. Until now, importing a file meant reverting back to grid view.

Importing Data into existing sheet
Anyone know the benefit of using data shuttle when the only option is to import from another Smartsheet? Why cant I use it to import from Excel or CSV?

Rows could not be added to the destination sheet because it did not have enough cells remaining
I have a blank sheet that serves as a "backup" for our main sheet. We have an automation that copies the data from the source sheet to the to the backup sheet once a week.

Contact field list management (data shuttle or groups)
Managing contact field lists for numerous sheets is time-consuming and subject to error. The ability to manage this by using Data Shuttle to update the contact field options OR being able to select a "group" for contact field options allows this field to dynamically update from a central location.

Data Shuttle, Use sheet name to link which tab to reference
The tab number in Excel is easily changed and seems unreliable. In my experience, when the tab number does change, there isn't a method for Data Shuttle to alert you of any issue. It's typically an end user that alerts me that some data appears outdated. Preventing file changes in Excel would be one counter measure, but…
