Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Smartsheet, ConvertAPI, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking β€œRun once” and triggering an event to check if the Smartsheet and ConvertAPI integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Smartsheet and ConvertAPI (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Smartsheet and ConvertAPI

Smartsheet + ConvertAPI + Slack: When a new event occurs in Smartsheet (like a new row added), the attached file is converted to PDF using ConvertAPI, and a message is sent to a specified Slack channel notifying the legal team about the converted document.

ConvertAPI + Smartsheet + Email: When a file is converted using ConvertAPI, the converted file is saved to a Smartsheet sheet. Then, an email is sent with details and/or a download link to the newly saved file.
