Notify someone if no rows are added or changed everyday at specific times
Hello,
I am trying to set up a sheet where there are two people being notified to complete and submit a checklist twice a day (already set up to notify them each at 9:00AM and 1:00PM). I want to create an automation that sends a notification to my boss if there is no submission by any party at the end of the day (5:00PM). How would I go about setting this up?

Hollie Green ✭✭✭✭✭The only way I can think of is to create an automation that runs in the middle of the night to uncheck a box and set up an additional automation to run when rows are added or change that will check that same box. Then have your 5 pm automation set to run daily if that box is unchecked.

@Holly Green The only reason this wouldn't work is because the sheet itself is completely blank until the first person submits the checklist and it should create a new entry each time.

Maybe a product enhancement request to expand the workflow portion of the api to include the sheet id is in order.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":227,"urlcode":"api-and-developers","name":"API and Developers"},{"tagID":334,"urlcode":"automations","name":"Automations"},{"tagID":448,"urlcode":"workflows-in-smartsheet","name":"Workflows in Smartsheet"}]},{"discussionID":109144,"type":"question","name":"Can you automatically rename\/add prefix to a mapped document?","excerpt":"I'm having an issue where I'm regularly automating a mapped document.

When you are setting up your mapping, you can drag and drop a field into the \"Output Document Name\" portion at the top of the mapping. You would just need a field that contains the document name (usually generated by a formula).<\/p>
