UiPath Smartsheet Activity Issue

“message”: “Activity ended with error:\r\n Error Code: [202] \r\n Message: CELL_VALUE_FAILS_VALIDATION: The value for cell in column 1862261511769988 did not conform to the strict requirements for type MULTI_PICKLIST”

After 2025.0.172 (from yesterday 07.24.2025) update I cannot use smartsheet backend activities. When I use that, this error message will be shown. The thing is the column related to this columnID (1862261511769988) is actually a drop down list. If I remove that column ID and value from my activity, it will be functioning as expected.

How to solve that? Anyone experienced this issue before? I saw this issue was there back in 2023 and fixed. ( source - How to address column restriction error and value does not conform to req for PICKLIST? — Smartsheet Community ). But again this is happening.

Hello,

Please try following the steps mentioned below 1 by 1 to help resolve your issue. :

  1. Double-check the drop-down column’s properties and restrictions.
  2. Update your UiPath data mapping: Ensure objectValue is used with an array for MULTI_PICKLIST updates.
  3. Test with restrictions off: If possible, temporarily disable “restrict to dropdown values only” to see if the error disappears.
  4. Check release note:
    Below is the Integration Service Activities release note for v5.0.2.(You can check for lower version/release note as per your requirement)
    https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/integration-service/release-notes-uipath-smartsheet
  5. Log all sent requests to the Smartsheet API to verify you’re passing the correct structure.

Welcome to the community

Generally for dropdown the value should exactly match along with casing as well can you check the same

I tried those and also I tried HTTP request also. But same error is happening again and again. - “{"refId":"ee646acd-95d1-4322-ad36-1b2c01df8ed5","errorCode":5536,"message":"CELL_VALUE_FAILS_VALIDATION: The value for cell in column 3467032585785220 did not conform to the strict requirements for type MULTI_PICKLIST"}”

Could you provide more details like your exact activity setup and Smartsheet column properties?
