Permit formulas in columns with the "Restrict" value toggle enabled
I have columns that are set to take certain types of data, and they contain formulas that fill the cells with values permissible within that data type. For instance, there's a field where a formula fills in one of several options based on a cell reference, or the user can manually select one of the options from a dropdown…

Auto-Revoke/Cancel Update Request
I have an [Assigned to] contacts column with multiple contacts per cell allowed. Based on certain criteria I have a workflow setup to send an "Update Request" to all of the contacts in [Assigned to]. However, I only require 1 (one) of the contacts to provide the requested update (as they chose based on their availability).…

Workflow to cancel an Update Request
Problem: I have a workflow that sends out an update request to the assigned individual for a task when that task moves into a "late" status. The goal is to get that person to go into the project plan and adjust the end date and or the status of the item. Many people make this change by editing the smartsheet directly…

Conditional Format For "Task Bar" independent of "Entire Row"

For example, I want an Epic to show up with a Grey background, but I do not want the grey background to extend into the Gantt Chart but I want the Gant chart to show up as Green if the task…

Can Update Requests have the same functions as a Form?
Update Request changes certain cells in a row, while Forms always add new rows to a sheet. Yet we need the customization options for Update Resuest compared to the Form: making fields required, help text, logic, etc. Hope it's underway soon!

Move Form to Different Folder
When creating a duplicate of a sheet/form, it would be beneficial to move it to another folder. Say you have a 2024 sheet/form and want to update it for 2025- you would duplicate the 2024 version, update it, and save it in the 2025 folder. Currently that is not an option.

Alert and Update Request in Same Workflow but Alert doesn't fire?
Hi All - maybe someone can spot what I'm missing here. I have an Automation that fires when our Admin sets a specific status column. When the value is "In Progress" it is supposed to send an Alert to the Requester, an Update Request to the Admin (or Admin and the Admin Backup) and then it sets a cell value (this step is…

Group Columns in Grid
Hi! I use a really large grid-style Smartsheet to track all aspects of project development and health. It would be very helpful to have a way of grouping columns. The hierarchy for rows works great, but I think with columns I am just looking for a way to clean up my views. I feel like the best (and only) solution right now…

Option to Send Separate Email Notifications in Update Request Automation
We have several use cases where it would be very helpful to be able to choose whether email notifications are combined or sent separately. For example, we are sending an Update Request to other departments for what is basically an approval, but they need the ability to edit fields and/or record additional information, not…
