Column Flag
When I add rows to my smartsheet the flag selector in the flag column isn't avaiable in the new row. Is there a way to add the flag selector to a cell or have it come along when adding rows?

The flag option should show up when you put something in the Primary Column.

Thanks Kris,
I am just new to smartsheet and haven't had time to review tutorials, so thanks for taking time to answer.

Travis EmployeeHi Don and Kris! Symbol options such as flags will appear if there is data anywhere in the row (not just the Primary column). If you wanted to enable the flag without having other data in the row, click in the flag cell and press the space bar.

Jeremy Michels ✭✭✭✭✭Travis,
Is this true for an editor as well? Is this limited to an administrator role. So if and editor adds a row do you maintain the same abilities as an admin adding rows?

Thanks for the additional info Travis.

Jeremy - This will be the same functionality for editors. If an editor adds a row, they can follow the same steps I provided above - as long as the flag column isn’t locked (editors cannot edit locked column). Here is a good help center article which explains the different sharing levels:http://help.smartsheet.com/customer/portal/articles/1155182-sharing-permission-levels

I am assuming your row in question is a standard Text\/Number cell? If so, you will need to get somewhat creative with some CONTAINS() statements.<\/p>
This will narrow down your matches to only cells that contain a space both before and after TAC. If, however, TAC can appear as the first or last \"word\" in the cell, it would not match in that circumstance as there would only be a space on one side.<\/p>
=IF(CONTAINS(\" TAC \", [Column Name1]@row), 1, 0)<\/p>
<\/p>If TAC can appear as the first or last \"word\" in the cell, this will cover those possibilities as well.<\/p>
=IF(OR(CONTAINS(\" TAC \", [Column Name1]@row), LEFT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \"TAC \", RIGHT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \" TAC\"), 1, 0)<\/p>
<\/p>If it is possible that TAC will be the exact entry of the cell, you will need an additional statement to cover that, as there would not be spaces on either side. This will add that option.<\/p>
=IF(OR(CONTAINS(\" TAC \", [Column Name1]@row), LEFT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \"TAC \", RIGHT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \" TAC\", [Column Name1]@row = \"TAC\"), 1, 0)<\/p>
<\/p>If there are other situations you may have in your sheet, i.e., TAC inside parenthesis, or before or after punctuation, etc, you will additional statements to include those options as well.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","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":254,"urlcode":"Formulas","name":"Formulas"}]},{"discussionID":109146,"type":"question","name":"Identify Workflow from ID?","excerpt":"Good morning, got a random one.

Yeah. That does sound like it could take awhile. Haha. And if you knew the sheet I'd, you'd be able to just jump to it in SS instead of needing the api.<\/p>
