When project managers update task statuses in Smartsheet, the corresponding photo documentation in CompanyCam often remains outdated. For instance, if a team member marks a task as 'Completed' in Smartsheet but fails to upload the final images in CompanyCam, critical visual evidence of project milestones is lost. This leads to the project management team spending hours manually cross-referencing tasks with photos, creating unnecessary delays and increasing the risk of miscommunication with stakeholders.

Top Ways to Automate Smartsheet & CompanyCam

  • Automated Photo Uploads: Instantly sync photos taken in CompanyCam to specific rows in Smartsheet, ensuring that all project documentation is up-to-date and easily accessible for team members.
  • Real-Time Status Updates: Automatically update project statuses in Smartsheet based on photo documentation milestones captured in CompanyCam, providing stakeholders with immediate insights into project progress.
  • Centralized Reporting: Generate comprehensive reports that combine data from Smartsheet and CompanyCam, allowing teams to analyze project performance and make informed decisions without manual data compilation.

How to Build the Smartsheet → CompanyCam Sync

  1. Set up a Standard Webhook in Smartsheet to listen for changes to task statuses. Configure the webhook to trigger on the 'Task Updated' event.
  2. In the webhook payload, extract the 'taskId', 'taskName', and 'status' fields from the JSON object.
  3. On receiving the webhook, create a function to check if the status is set to 'Completed'. If so, proceed to the next step.
  4. Make a POST request to the CompanyCam API endpoint: POST /projects/{projectId}/photos.
  5. In the POST request body, include the extracted 'taskId', 'taskName', and a placeholder for the photo URL. Ensure the photo URL is populated based on the project's requirements.
  6. Test the integration by updating a task in Smartsheet and verifying that the corresponding photo entry is created in CompanyCam.

Developer Warnings & API Gotchas

  • Ensure the 'taskId' from Smartsheet matches the project ID in CompanyCam; mismatches can lead to photos being uploaded to the wrong project.
  • When extracting the photo URL, confirm that it is publicly accessible; otherwise, CompanyCam will reject the upload.
  • Be cautious of the data types in the payload; Smartsheet uses strings for 'status', while CompanyCam may expect specific enumerated values. Validate these before sending the API request.
