Connect Smartsheet with Datastudio
Hello everyone,
I have a use case and I don't know how to proceed and find the best way to solve my problem.
Here is the use case :
I have a sheet in Smartsheet for request management.
I would like this sheet to automatically be pushed into a Datastudio report.
I was thinking about the following options, but maybe do you have some suggestions or feedback on this use case ?
- Use a dedicated connector made by a third party app (not free)
- Use live data connector ?
- Create an API development (extraction toward a Google Sheet that is the Datastudio data source)
- Use Data Shuttle to export the sheet into Google Sheet (currently we can only do an export on Excel or csv if I am right)
Please let me know if you have any ideas,
Have a great day, Corentin

It depends on your resources, API is the best from my point of view, because it will allow me to parse data at will due to a few restrictions (https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/770623-exporting-sheets-reports-from-smartsheet#google) in order to send to Google Sheet, you can extract the data from smartsheet, convert JSON to what ever is the best format for Google Sheet to consume it.

Thank you for your reply,
I will look at the API possibility in that case.
Have a nice day,

- Data Shuttle: You mentioned you work for a small company and already use SCC. If it's been a while since you talked with your account rep, I suggest contacting them just to see what they can offer. I've seen them offer much more attractive pricing to small companies lately. (One company I'm working with was able to upgrade to Advance for a fraction of what they were quoted a few years ago.)<\/li>

- Build a Report that refer to all project sheets (as source sheets) and setup \"As current user\" filter, then embed that Report to a Dashboard (with Viewer mode setting is \"Their own perspective\" in Dashboard). The viewer will not see only data regarding to them without the comment column.<\/li>
- Build a Report that refer to all project sheets (as source sheets) and build a Dynamic View (DV) that refer to this Report (as source data) and setup :
- \"As current user\" filter in this DV for external stakeholders to see only data regarding to them. <\/li>
- Hide comment<\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol>
This will save your effort to build many DV for different stakeholders<\/p>
