Got Smartsheet Backups?

Calling all Smartsheet Licensed Users! Like the "Got Milk?" ads, we'd like to ask you "Got Backups?"


Do you ever think about what would happen if someone deleted rows in one of your sheets by mistake?

- Did you know that there is no way to recover those rows without a backup solution?


Do you ever have users delete or change data and formulas in your sheets by accident?

- Did you know that there is no easy way to get those formulas back?


One of the great features of Smartsheet is to attach documents and images to rows in your sheets, but do you ever think about what would happen if any of those attachments were deleted by mistake?

- There is no way to restore those attachments….


Until now!!

SmartBackup User Guides

  With SmartBackup installed, your organization and your Smartsheet users can rest assured that their Smartsheet data is secured! Then, when things go wrong, it is good to know that there is a way to recover lost or deleted data, or to revert back to earlier versions of the data. But as an end user, how do you do that? If some of my rows get deleted, how do I recover that information? If a formula gets changed by mistake, how do I go back to an earlier version of the formula? And worse - what if a formula gets deleted? These are all excellent questions, and there are many more similar scenarios, such as reverting to an earlier version of a Form, or a drop down list, for example. Well, thank goodness for SmartBackup !

Navigating the world of backups in Smartsheet

  Backups are arguably as trying as they are important. Here is a short guide to help simplify them for you, while also positioning SmartBackup for Smartsheet from AcuWorkflow . What are Backups? Traditionally the main reason for creating backups is to save important files for when system crashes or hard drive failures occur. With Smartsheet being in the cloud, the backup mindset turns much more to the service not being available or loosing parts of your worksheet set due to user error, or data being overwritten accidentally. Even worse situations can occur if you were to lose pieces of your business records embedded across multiple Smartsheet sheets that make up one of your major transitional projects, as an example. There are various reasons for having backups. Think of the spare tire in the trunk of your car, or the extra clothing in your hand-luggage for if your baggage accidently gets waylaid while traveling. In these circumstances, a backup can literally save your “life”, but wit

SmartBackup for Smartsheet Platform Advisory

Image
UPDATE: March 17, 2023. After extensive investigation, research, testing, and analysis, together with the Smartsheet Product Team,  we have recently discovered that some Smartsheet customers are using the Upload File Attachments feature in Smartsheet extensively.  While this is permissible, it is important to know that there may be consequences, and this scenario could mean that it will not be possible to create a full backup, or a full export copy of your Smartsheet environment. For more details, please review the   Smartsheet File Attachments Storage Guide. In the case of some SmartBackup customers who are using the Upload File Attachment feature extensively, we have encountered intermittent timeout errors, and overly long backup durations, which render the backup and export processes ineffective. Note that this is not a shortcoming of the SmartBackup solution or the Smartsheet platform, but more of an issue with the way that the Smartsheet platform has been used. For SmartBackup, we
