Hi!
I have a table with multiple columns. Two of these columns are going to change with frequency, the others shouldn’t change at all. What would be a good method of setting up an alert that is sent to me when data is changed in one of these “protected” columns?
Summary: There are 14 columns in this table, 2 of which will change daily; the others shouldn’t ever change.
Hey @Sara_Jean_Kwapien! It sounds like setting up an automation that notifies you if a row in those “protected” columns would do the trick. Check out this help page for guidance on setting up automations 
Thank you, Jasmine!
Because there are so many columns (12) that are “protected” I was hoping there would be a way to do this without setting up 12 alerts? 
You could set up a “Protected Columns Modified On” column for all the columns necessary:
Max(thisrow.ColumnA.Modifed(), thisrow.ColumnB.Modified(), thisrow.ColumnC.Modified().... etc)
Then set up an automation on changes to the [Protected Columns Modified On] column. This way, you can edit the formula in that column to expand or contract as needs change without adjusting the automation
Eeeeeek, Billy! THANK YOU!
You bet! Let me know if you’ve got any trouble with it!
