Sending a notification when all checkboxes are ticked

Hi

I am new to using Smartsheet and am still learning. I need to set up an automation where if all the checkboxes in a sheet are ticked then a notification message is sent out informing that all actions have been completed. Could someone give me some guidance on how to set this up.

非常感谢

John

    Hi@JohnCUK,

    Using a very simple example:

    Your automation to have a notification sent when all of the checkbox columns are ticked would look similar to this:

    The end alert can be changed to suit (link to the sheet, just certain columns or a custom message) as required.

    Alternatively, if one of the checkboxes is using a formula to check all the previous ones are completed, you could set your automation to act if this one becomes ticked rather than needing the multiple conditions - the choice is yours!

    Hope this helps, but if you've any questions etc. then just post!
