Smartsheet API report creation

Hi,

We have a lot of reports, they have only small differences.

Normally it is just a filter e.g. name of "assigned to".

If we have to slightly change these reports, we have to change all the reports by hand.

Is it possible to create/change reports with the API?

I tried to do it but i did not found it in the API (Smartsheet Java SDK).

To create folders it is possible to make something like that:

Folder folder = new Folder.CreateFolderBuilder().setName("New Folder").build();

folder = smartsheet.homeResources().folderResources().createFolder(folder);

but the report ressources has no creation method

report = smartsheet.reportResources().createReport(report);

If this feature not exists, this is my feature request :-)

Thanks a lot.

Hey @GlennJo<\/a>,<\/p>

the sheet should be available in the owner of the sheet, deleted files. If it is specifically a row of data that was deleted, you can try checking the activity log to see if it shows the removed data there.<\/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":108840,"type":"question","name":"WorkApps - Admin Permissions on Assets","excerpt":"Hi, We are using WorkApps more and more to create a \"one-stop shop\" where users can go to access forms, sheets, reports, dashboards & dynamic views.
