Creating an Asset from Sheets folder

Sani

From Sheets folder it is no longer possible to create an asset directly from this location.

The dropdown menu has been removed from Actions
It is now required to right click on Sheets folder
- - No visible dropdown menu for creating an asset.
  - Now required to click on Create taking the end user to this screen.
    - - Options to create an asset are at the bottom of the screen instead of the top of most used in the organization
      - Even creating a Grid asset will then create a new workspace
Issues:
- Dropdowns removed forcing the end user to create a new workspace
- Multiple steps have been added to create an asset, i.e., loss of time and additional capacity needed
- Frequently used assets are at the bottom of the screen
- The new workspace needs to be deleted with the asset moved to its proper location within Smartsheet, i.e., loss of time and additional capacity needed
Requested: Product review this process for efficient workflow to eliminate continued addition of steps causing more not less time to create an asset.

The Sheets folder creation has been a deprecated feature for some time now.

You can still right click or use the "Create" dropdown in any other workspace or folder while in the Browse tab to create a new asset without it automatically creating a new workspace.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the feedback!

Aware this is possible. The question is why is it misaligned within Smartsheet Core product creating several workarounds instead of functioning cohesively. Would be helpful to have Smartsheet product weigh in as well.

We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
why does it not show the bars in timeline view like most gantt charts do?
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
HELP: Automated notification changed from Message w/Attachment to "Changes to Sheet" summary email
Hello all, I'm having an urgent issue with a notification workflow. It worked at first, but didn't trigger on all the rows that it should have — and now, instead of the message it should be sending, I'm only getting a weird batched summary email that shows the changes that were made to the sheet. (See screenshot) The…
