I was wondering if there is a feature for Archiving? And if so can we archive and them bring them back to the workspace at any time?
Thank you!
Hi,
I'm assuming you're referring to projects provisioned via Smartsheet Control Center? If so, no there is no easy way. Smartsheet are working on an archiving solution, but it doesn't help you in the meanwhile.
I've Created an Archive workspace and have been dragging folders in there. But it breaks the Control Center view of the portfolio and is messy.
It's just another reason why SCC should not have been released in it's current guise as it's a half-baked product. The pricing has been increased too, so our renewal will cost us an extra 33% for no perceivable value. The product is mostly the same as it was when we signed up and still has the same shortfalls.
Thanks Chris for your response and sharing your way for archiving projects. And yes that does sound messy. We are trying to stay away from messy ourselves.
Do you by chance know anything about how their "Back-up" system works? It is true Smartsheet has a back up for the "sheets, but not for the Dashboards?"
I curious where those files go when backed up.
Hi Tkaraly123,
The backup function just exports the selected sheets to Excel format, and you get an email link to a zip folder that you can download. I believe the link expires after 7 days, so you need to download the zip folder and store the contents somewhere. You can re-import the files into Smartsheet at a later date if you need to, but things like comments and dependencies will be missing.
Hello everyone, I am experiencing an issue with a workspace in Smartsheet. The workspace was originally created by a user whose account has since been deleted. Ownership of the workspace has been transferred to me, and I am currently listed as the owner. However, I am unable to delete the workspace. The delete option is…
Hi there, I have just recently worked with Smartsheet's Implementation team to build a Control Center Blueprint. The workspace that holds the solution is titled something very generic and I would like to rename it. Can I do that w/out breaking anything or what steps would I need to take to successfully rename it. Thanks in…
Hey, I've got a sheet, which is autopopulated as a source sheet to feed into DataMesh (which runs once every 24 hours). Once DataMesh has run, how can I auto-clear the rows in the sheet to avoid repeating this the next day? I have no use to keep the data and want to avoid clogging up the source sheet. I have tried…
