    Hi Dhananjay,

    There are some third party solutions but the right choice and if it's possible depends on your specific use case and need.

    Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share some screenshots? That would make it easier to help.

    I hope this helps you!

    Have a fantastic week!

  • Hi Andree,

    Hi Amanda,




    our scientists currently Manually create the report (for items below) in Smartsheet that lists products in different stages by putting them in the following bins

    queue (not started)


    early development


    failed


    development with product number


    datasheets


    web ready


    released



    theyneed a way to automatically dump this entire dataset (live or on a pre-scheduled interval) to a view in Googlesheet without manual intervention,

    Do you need it to sync with one Google sheet or create new ones for each time?

    Have a fantastic weekend!

  • I too am looking for this solution. I want my smartsheet data to keep getting synced with the same Google sheet periodically. Is this possible?

    Try using Smartsheet Data Shuttle. You can replace/merge/offload data from Smartsheet to any google sheet or excel at set Intervals.

    Hi@Vicky.Malhotra

    I hope you're well and safe!

    Here's a possible workaround or workarounds

    • Premium App, Data Shuttle
    • Smartsheet API
    • A 3rd-party option like Zapier or similar

    Would any of those options work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

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>

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>
