Converting Sheet Variable(SmartSheet) to DataTable

Help Studio
1

I just recently started working with the SmartSheet Activity Package, and had to perform some Data Manipulation with it.

I am used to pulling data out in the form of DataTables, after which I can either pull them into a For Each Row, or LINQ, but I am not able to do so with the outputs from SmartSheet activities, since the Data is stored inside a Sheet Variable.

LINQ doesn’t work since AsEnumerable is not a member of SmartSheet APIs.

I tried to convert it into a DataTable, but wasn’t able to.

Any idea how this conversion can be performed?

Help would be most appreciated, and thanks in advance!

Kind Regards,

Hi Ashwin,

Were you able to do it?

Hi @cldt ,

No I wasn’t able to do it.
I completed the project using API Calls instead, without using the Custom Activity.
It’s not really useful if I can’t retrieve the Sheets as Tables, because you have to then reference them by their Indexes, which can change if they decide to add columns in between.
