Bring Back The Old Sheet Picker for Copy/Move Row Automations
The new "search based" functionality for picking the destination for copy and move row automations has proven to be more painful than helpful.
I wish I had screenshots of the old one, but it was much more user friendly.
I'm putting this out there to hopefully get the new UI reverted back to the previous UI.

I agree wholeheartedly. The new picker is frequently not finding sheets when I've searched by exact unique name, and when it does find results, not enough detail is included to differentiate between similarly-named sheets.
-
Joseph Aloysias ✭✭✭✭Not able see workspace name when I use copy/move row automation.
How will I know the workspace from this search? If I have the same file name in different workpaces?
-
Ami Veltrie ✭✭✭✭✭YES please bring back the old way!! The new way does not allow me to see the current destination sheet name. It's terrible!!
-
Deanna Vandermeer Overachievers AlumniYES! I agree, please bring back the old way!!!!!! This new way is not helpful at all and I do not understand why it was rolled out without further testing/feedback opportunities. Very cumbersome. Please consider putting this back to the old way.

I also agree. As a workaround until they bring back the sheet picker, I have "Renamed" the target sheets to something that will show in the search and renamed back when I completed my workflow.
Yes, very difficult to distinguish between sheets as I have setup a "Project Folder" template and use the same names for everything under that folder.

Include a Column Selection at the same time. Many issues would be resolved.
Select the Target Sheet --> Choose the Columns you want to copy upon an automated trigger.

@rlacoutI believe there may already be an Idea posted that you could add your vote to for that.

Thank you. I've voted that one up and am just looking for possible solutions.
