Uploading Large Sheets In As Data Dumps

Hello,

We are working on a project where we create data dumps in a folder that many sheets can use as a resource through formulas. Is there any way to upload daily under the same name, overwrite the file and not break the formulas that are pointing to these sheets?

What are some solutions around this? Will we need Smartsheet Data Uploader? Or can this be done without.

We have been treating these sheets as "import sheets" trying to get around the 500 line limit. But is there another workaround to this issue?

Thanks,

Meg

Ashley, you have perplexed me completely! I have no idea how that happened!<\/p>


<\/p>

Attempt two: can you update your trigger into \"When Rows Are Changed\"<\/p>

\n
\n \n \"image.png\"<\/img><\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Then, delete all of these erroneous rows and hit save.<\/p>

Finally, add \"No Show\" into like three rows. Save your sheet, and reload (automation takes a second to run completely). <\/p>

Is your \"Attendance\" column set up as a dropdown or as a text?<\/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":[]},{"discussionID":112207,"type":"question","name":"access to sheet","excerpt":"I want specific fields but I don't want a link to the sheet....
