1. Inside your Kissflow account, click your profile picture on the top right corner of the screen and click Integrations from the dropdown. Now, click the New integration button to provide a name and description for your integration.

2. Once inside your editor, set up a trigger step, for example, a Kissflow Project trigger event, when an item is completed.

3. After setting up your trigger step above, click the Add button (+) next to set up your action step. Search for Smartsheet and select a desired action.

4. After choosing your action event, authenticate the connector. Click +Add an account and sign in using your Smartsheet account. Kissflow uses OAuth for authentication.

5. After authenticating with your Smartsheet account, add relevant values against the Smartsheet form fields. You can hit Refresh fields to view all the updated fields in the selected Smartsheet form. You can also map Smartsheet fields from your trigger step or fields from your previous action steps. These values will be automatically added to item fields after the action is executed.

6. After a successful configuration, test whether your Smartsheet action step is set up correctly by clicking the Test button. The connector will pull field data from your selected Smartsheet account and display it as a JSON output. Similar to trigger step, errors are notified to you right away.

Sheet updates and data changes typically require validation before being finalized. Low code development introduces structured review and accountability to these actions.

Smartsheet is powerful for planning tasks but often lacks built-in governance for approvals. A No-Code Development Platform fills this gap by enabling automated workflow creation around sheet-based data.
