Does Smartsheet allow for integration with Access database tables?
Is this something that a connector is needed for; such as Data Uploader?
Will the integration work with older editions of Access or only Microsoft 365?
HI, Integration is possible via the Smartsheet Data Connector - https://www.smartsheet.com/marketplace/apps/live-data-connector . Although it does not mention Access specifically it does work with Access and with normal desktop versions of Access as well as the version delivered via 0365. The connector will provide a read only link to your Smartsheet sheets and reports.
If you need to be able to pass back data from Access to your sheets then that is a job for some custom code written using the Smartsheet API. We provide custom apps that do this.
cheers

If I use the Replace workflow of Data…
