Hi,

How to expand expiration time for token without using of SDK (no APPLICATION)? - I just needed it for simple csv download & then process it via Informatica Power Center.

Just execution of script/cmd like this one:

旋度https://api.smartsheet.com/2.0/users/me-H "Authorization: Bearer xxx" -o $PMRootDir/scripts/json_data_curl.json -v

Is there any way to set it from beginning to 1 year for example?

  • The tokens you generate in the UI of Smartsheet are long lived. They are valid for 10 years by default. For this process you can go into your account and choose the Account menu (profile picture in upper right) > Personal Settings > API Access > Generate new access token.

    That token can be plugged into your script without having to do any authentication requests to create it. It will be valid for 10 years and can be used as needed for requests made by your account.

    Note, once you generate the token and close the menu there isn't a method to look it back up again, so you'll need to store it somewhere securely. Also, it is the equivalent of your email and password for your account. It would provide API access to everything in your account. You'll want to make sure to store it securely and to not let it get publicly posted anywhere. Also, once revoked it cannot be brought back and you would have to generate a new one.

@Neil Watson<\/a> You should be able to use the LOWER function for evaluation but still output the version that includes caps.<\/p>

I haven't tested it yet, but I feel like it should work.<\/p>"},{"commentID":386435,"body":"

Right. There are already a number of posts here in the community detailing how to pull a distinct or unique list from another sheet via formula. It usually involves the formula above without the LOWER function. The number 1 would output the first distinct value. Changing that to a 2 will output the second distinct value, so on and so forth. I usually use a helper column with the numbers manually entered so I can apply it as a column formula.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":320,"name":"API & Developers","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/api-developers","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":369,"urlcode":"bridge-by-smartsheet","name":"Bridge"}]},{"discussionID":107674,"type":"question","name":"API PUT and Body help for Cell link from a cell in sheet \"a\" to sheet \"b\"","excerpt":"I am having trouble linking a cell from sheet a to b.

Hey @Carlo Rodriguez<\/a> <\/p>

This is how I've successfully added a cell-link using the API:<\/p>


<\/p>

PUT (with the destination sheet data): <\/p>

https:\/\/api.smartsheet.com\/2.0\/sheets\/XXXX\/rows\/X<\/a>XXX<\/p>


<\/p>

Body (with the source sheet data, but the initial ColumnID from the destination sheet to show where to put the link):<\/p>

{\n  \"cells\": [\n    {\n      \"columnId\": 11111,\n            \"value\": null,\n            \"linkInFromCell\": {\n                \"sheetId\": 22222,\n                \"rowId\": 33333,\n                \"columnId\": 44444\n            }\n    }\n     ]\n}\n<\/pre>

Here is the basic process to conditionally format the background of a cell based on its contents. In this scenario, you would need to setup three format options, one for each color\/selection.<\/p>
