Huddle and Smartsheet
Smartsheet is a work management platform built around a spreadsheet-style interface. Huddle connects directly to Smartsheet and turns that data into real internal applications.
What Is Smartsheet?
Smartsheet is a work management platform that enables teams to plan, track, automate, and report on work using a spreadsheet-style interface. It is used by project managers, operations teams, and enterprise IT departments. Smartsheet supports collaborative grid, card, Gantt, and calendar views.
Smartsheet integrates with tools including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, and Jira. Pricing starts at approximately $9 per user per month.
How Huddle Works with Smartsheet
Huddle connects directly to Smartsheet as a data source. No migration is required. No custom API development is required. Data remains in Smartsheet at all times. The connection is bidirectional — changes made through a Huddle application update Smartsheet in real time, and changes made in Smartsheet are reflected in Huddle.
On top of Smartsheet data, users build IT service portals, project status dashboards, employee request portals, asset trackers, and executive reporting interfaces. Sheets, rows, and column data are surfaced through Huddle widgets without altering the underlying Smartsheet structure.
Smartsheet remains the system of record. Huddle adds the application layer on top — turning rows in a sheet into structured experiences for the people who consume that data.
What You Can Build with Huddle and Smartsheet
IT Service Portal on Smartsheet Data
Teams that already manage tickets, requests, or incidents in Smartsheet use Huddle to build a self-service portal on top of those sheets. Employees submit requests and view status through a portal interface while the data lives in Smartsheet.
Project Status Dashboard
Project managers tracking work in Smartsheet build a Huddle dashboard that rolls up status, milestones, and owners across multiple sheets. Stakeholders see live project health without opening Smartsheet directly.
Employee Request Portal
HR and operations teams that intake requests through Smartsheet rows build a Huddle form-driven portal. Submissions write back to Smartsheet, and request status is surfaced to the requester through the same portal.
Asset Tracking Portal
Organizations that catalog equipment, devices, or inventory in Smartsheet use Huddle to build a searchable asset portal. Staff check out assets, log changes, and update records from a structured interface.
Executive Reporting Dashboard
Leadership teams build executive-level dashboards on top of Smartsheet data without exporting to BI tools. Charts, KPIs, and roll-ups update as Smartsheet data changes.
