Pull from Smartsheet

The Pull from Smartsheet step enables you to pull in data from Smartsheet (a collaborative spreadsheet tool) used for organizing and working with data. This way, you'll be able to view your data as a table, workflow, or timeline and automate the process of making reports. You may also combine with other data sources.

Connect your Smartsheet account

To authorize your Smartsheet account in this step, select Authorize.

Then, a new webpage tab will open and redirect you to log into your Smartsheet account. Once you login, select Allow to finalize the authorization.

After this, your webpage will return to the tab with your Parabola flow on it and refresh the step automatically.

Custom settings

The step will automatically select and pull in the first Sheet listed in your Smartsheet account's Sheets section. To bring in a different Smartsheet Sheet with the dataset you'd like to work with, select the name of the sheet to pull it in and click on the circular arrow icon next to the step's name Pull from Smartsheet to refresh the display window.

After a dataset from your Smartsheet sheet is pulled in, select the blue "Show Updated Results" button to save these settings in the step.

Any changes you make in Smartsheet Sheets will automatically sync with Parabola in your steps that incorporate those datasets.
