Is there a way to create source link for cell without removing destination links?

Request Demo

Hi! I'm trying to use a spreadsheet as a pass-through for our data, connecting multiple sources to multiple destinations with the spreadsheet serving as the mid-point hub. However, when I try to add a source to a cell that has destinations already attached, the source linking fails. Is there a workaround?

    Hi Martie,

    Is your goal to have a source link and a destination link within the same cell?

    Thanks!

    Was there a response to this as I have the same/similar problem. We have a spreadsheet with cells that are already linked to the destination document and this process was carried out before any data was linked to the cells. We are now trying to link the data to these cells but are prompted to remove the source links first which then breaks the destination link. How can we link the cells to our source whilst preserving the destination links to the document?

    Hey Lisa Powell

    I think I might need some additional clarity, to Gerry's point above, is your goal to have both a source link and a destination link within the same cell? If so, this is not possible but I can submit an idea ticket on your behalf for this. 

    If the source links exist in two places already, we unfortunately don't have a way to "merge" source links. However, if you only have source links in one place, you can cut/paste the source cells to wherever they want the source link to live. That's the only way to move existing sources currently.

    Let me know if this helps! If you'd like me to create an idea ticket on your behalf I'm happy to do so.
