--- title: Smartsheet API Integration on Truto slug: smartsheet category: Ticketing canonical: "https://truto.one/integrations/detail/smartsheet/" --- # Smartsheet API Integration on Truto **Category:** Ticketing **Status:** Generally available ## Unified APIs ### Unified User Directory API - **Roles** — The Role object represents a role of a User. - **Users** — The User object represents a User. ## How it works 1. **Link your customer's Smartsheet account.** Use Truto's frontend SDK; we handle every OAuth and API key flow so you don't need to create the OAuth app. 2. **Authentication is automatic.** Truto refreshes tokens, stores credentials securely, and injects them into every API request. 3. **Call Truto's API to reach Smartsheet.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Smartsheet API. 4. **Get a unified response format.** Every response uses a single shape, with cursor-based pagination and data in the `result` field. ## Use cases - **Sync IT request tickets with Smartsheet project plans** — ITSM and helpdesk SaaS companies can offer their customers a native Smartsheet integration so that tickets created or updated in the SaaS app automatically reflect as rows in the customer's Smartsheet. This keeps non-technical stakeholders in the loop without requiring them to leave Smartsheet. - **Resolve user identity across Smartsheet and your platform** — SaaS products that need to map assignees, reporters, or approvers between their system and Smartsheet can pull Smartsheet user and role data via Truto's Unified User Directory API to ensure ticket ownership is always accurate and up to date. - **Power executive dashboards from specialized SaaS data** — Operations and PMO leaders often build executive dashboards in Smartsheet. A B2B SaaS company can push aggregated ticket metrics, SLA data, or task completion rates into designated Smartsheet rows so customers get live reporting without switching tools. - **Ingest Smartsheet form submissions as structured tickets** — Many enterprises use Smartsheet web forms for intake — IT requests, creative briefs, bug reports. A SaaS app can listen for new rows and automatically create formal tickets in their own system, eliminating manual data entry for end users. - **Enable bidirectional status sync for client-facing project plans** — Customer onboarding and professional services platforms can push task completion updates back into a client's shared Smartsheet, giving external stakeholders real-time visibility without requiring a login to the SaaS product. ## What you can build - **Smartsheet user and role directory sync** — Pull Smartsheet users and their roles into your application via Truto's Unified User Directory API to accurately map ticket assignees, reporters, and approvers across systems. - **Two-way ticket-to-row synchronization** — Map your app's tickets to Smartsheet rows so that status changes, priority updates, and field edits flow in both directions, keeping every stakeholder current. - **Automated intake form-to-ticket pipeline** — Detect new Smartsheet form submissions via webhooks and automatically generate categorized, prioritized tickets inside your SaaS product. - **Row-level comment and discussion sync** — Mirror conversation threads between your app's ticket comments and Smartsheet row discussions so context is never lost across platforms. - **Live SLA and metric roll-up rows** — Push calculated metrics — open ticket counts, average resolution time, SLA compliance percentages — into specific Smartsheet cells that feed customer-built dashboards. - **Dynamic column-to-field schema mapping UI** — Fetch a Smartsheet's column definitions at connection time and present end users with a mapping interface that links custom Smartsheet columns to your app's standard ticket fields. ## FAQs ### What Unified APIs does Truto currently support for Smartsheet? Truto supports the Unified User Directory API for Smartsheet, covering Users and Roles. This lets you pull user identity and role information to map ticket ownership fields like assignee and reporter. Additional tools and unified API coverage (e.g., Ticketing CRUD, Comments, Attachments) are built on request. ### How does authentication work for Smartsheet through Truto? Smartsheet supports OAuth 2.0 for third-party integrations. Truto manages the full OAuth flow — token acquisition, refresh, and storage — so your end users can connect their Smartsheet accounts without your team handling any auth infrastructure. ### Are there rate limits I need to worry about with the Smartsheet API? Yes. Smartsheet enforces rate limits (typically 300 requests per minute per access token). Truto handles retry logic and rate-limit awareness so your integration degrades gracefully under load rather than failing outright. ### Can Truto handle Smartsheet's flexible, user-defined column schemas? Smartsheet sheets are highly customized — every customer's columns are different. Truto can fetch column metadata for a given sheet so your application can present a mapping UI that links arbitrary Smartsheet columns to your product's standard fields. ### What if I need Smartsheet capabilities beyond Users and Roles? Truto builds integrations on request. If you need support for Rows (tickets), Discussions, Attachments, Webhooks, or any other Smartsheet API resource, the Truto team can scope and deliver those tools tailored to your use case. ### Does Truto handle pagination when listing Smartsheet users? Yes. Truto abstracts pagination across all supported integrations, including Smartsheet. When you query the Unified User Directory API, Truto automatically handles paginated responses so you receive a complete dataset without managing cursors or page tokens yourself.
