Ways to find what reports are running a certain sheet as it's source data
I want to make some structure change to particular sheet. (Especially Primary column) However, before I can change that, I need to find out how many and what reports are using this sheet as it's source to make sure nothing will break.

Why automation copies the row 3 times instead of once?
Hi everyone! On Smartsheet, I have a source file for which I created an automation. Through this automation, the 7 rows of the source file (whose values are updated multiple times a day) are copied to another destination file.

Place Months in chronological order on a Dashboard Trendline Chart Widget?
Context: I am building a trendline report to track number of projects started each month. It has two series, a 2024 and 2025 series.

Can I see all of my comments across sheets and reports in one place?
I'm wondering if I can see a feed of all my comments across sheets and reports somewhere...

Customize hyperlink destination in reminders/notifications

Best Practice: Intake Sheet & Secondary Sheet when 2-way sync is needed

A call comes in when there's bad weather, a city employee "aka Dispatcher" looks to see who is available in our list of drivers and assigns them to pick the employee up.
