# List cell history Gets the cell modification history. > Note: Fetching cell history is resource-intensive and is limited to 30 requests per minute per API token. For details, see Rate limiting. > Note: For pagination guidance, refer to Pagination. Endpoint: GET /sheets/{sheetId}/rows/{rowId}/columns/{columnId}/history Version: 2.0.0 Security: APIToken, OAuth2 ## Path parameters: - `sheetId` (number, required) ID of the sheet being accessed. - `rowId` (number, required) ID of the sheet row being accessed. - `columnId` (number, required) ID of the sheet column being accessed. ## Header parameters: - `Authorization` (string) API Access Token used to authenticate requests to Smartsheet APIs. - `smartsheet-integration-source` (string) Uses the following metadata to distinguish between human-initiated API requests and third-party service-initiated calls by AI Connectors or ITSM: - Integration source type - Organization name - Integration source name Format: TYPE,OrgName,SourceName Examples: AI,SampleOrg,My-AI-Connector-v2 SCRIPT,SampleOrg2,Accounting-updater-script APPLICATION,SampleOrg3,SheetUpdater Example: "AI,SampleOrg,My-AI-Connector-v2" ## Query parameters: - `include` (string) A comma-separated list of elements to copy: * columnType - includes the columnType attribute for each Cell object * objectValue - when used in combination with a level query parameter, includes the email addresses for a multi-contact cell. Enum: "columnType", "objectValue" - `pageSize` (number) The maximum number of items to return per page. Unless otherwise stated for a specific endpoint, defaults to 100. If only page is specified, defaults to a page size of 100. For reports, the default is 100 rows. If you need larger sets of data from your report, returns a maximum of 10,000 rows per request. - `page` (number) Which page to return. Defaults to 1 if not specified. If you specify a value greater than the total number of pages, the last page of results is returned. - `level` (integer) Specifies whether object data types, such as multi-contact data are returned in a backwards-compatible, text format in text/number columns. - Set level=0 (default) to use text/number columns for multi-contact data and multi-picklist data. - Set level=1 to use multiple-entry contact list columns for multi-contact data; multi-picklist data is returned in text/number columns. - Set level=2 to use multiple-entry contact list columns for multi-contact data and use multiple-entry picklist columns for multi-picklist data. ## Response 200 fields (application/json): - `pageNumber` (number) The current page in the full result set that the data array represents. NOTE when a page number greater than totalPages is requested, the last page is instead returned. Example: 1 - `pageSize` (number,null) The number of items in a page. Omitted if there is no limit to page size (and hence, all results are included). Unless otherwise specified, this defaults to 100 for most endpoints. Example: 50 - `totalPages` (number) The total number of pages in the full result set. Example: 25 - `totalCount` (number) The total number of items in the full result set. Example: 136 - `data` (array) List of cell history objects - `data.modifiedAt` (any) - `data.modifiedBy` (object) User object containing the name and email of the user that made the change. - `data.modifiedBy.email` (string) Example: "jane.doe@smartsheet.com" - `data.modifiedBy.name` (string) Example: "Jane Doe" - `data.columnId` (number) The ID of the column that the cell is located in. - `data.rowId` (number) The ID of the row the cell is located in. - `data.columnType` (string) Only returned if the include query string parameter contains columnType. - `data.conditionalFormat` (string) The format descriptor describing this cell's conditional format. Only returned if the include query string parameter contains format and this cell has a conditional format applied. - `data.displayValue` (string) Visual representation of cell contents, as presented to the user in the UI. - `data.format` (string) The format descriptor. Only returned if the include query string parameter contains format and this cell has a non-default format applied. - `data.formula` (string) The formula for a cell, if set, for instance =COUNTM([Assigned To]3). Note that calculation errors or problems with a formula do not cause the API call to return an error code. Instead, the response contains the same value as in the UI, such as cell.value = "#CIRCULAR REFERENCE". - `data.hyperlink` (object) - `data.hyperlink.reportId` (number) If non-null, this hyperlink is a link to the report with this ID. - `data.hyperlink.sheetId` (number) If non-null, this hyperlink is a link to the sheet with this ID. - `data.hyperlink.sightId` (number) If non-null, this hyperlink is a link to the dashboard with this ID. - `data.hyperlink.url` (string) When the hyperlink is a URL link, this property contains the URL value. When the hyperlink is a dashboard/report/sheet link (that is, dashboardId, reportId, or sheetId is non-null), this property contains the permalink to the dashboard, report, or sheet. - `data.image` (object) - `data.image.altText` (string) Alternate text for the image. - `data.image.height` (number) Original height (in pixels) of the uploaded image. - `data.image.id` (string) Image ID. - `data.image.width` (number) Original width (in pixels) of the uploaded image. - `data.linkInFromCell` (object) - `data.linkInFromCell.columnId` (number) Column ID of the linked cell. - `data.linkInFromCell.rowId` (number) Row ID of the linked cell. - `data.linkInFromCell.sheetId` (number) Sheet ID of the sheet that the linked cell belongs to. - `data.linkInFromCell.sheetName` (string) Sheet name of the linked cell. - `data.linkInFromCell.status` (string) * BLOCKED One of several other values indicating unusual error conditions. * BROKEN The row or sheet linked to was deleted. * CIRCULAR One of several other values indicating unusual error conditions. * DISABLED One of several other values indicating unusual error conditions. * INACCESSIBLE The sheet linked to cannot be viewed by this user. * INVALID One of several other values indicating unusual error conditions. * NOT_SHARED One of several other values indicating unusual error conditions. * OK The link is in a good state. Enum: "BLOCKED", "BROKEN", "CIRCULAR", "DISABLED", "INACCESSIBLE", "INVALID", "NOT_SHARED", "OK" - `data.linksOutToCells` (array) - `data.objectValue` (any) - `data.overrideValidation` (boolean) (Admin only) Indicates whether the cell value can contain a value outside of the validation limits (value = true). When using this parameter, you must also set strict to false to bypass value type checking. This property is honored for POST or PUT actions that update rows. - `data.strict` (boolean) Set to false to enable lenient parsing. Defaults to true. You can specify this attribute in a request, but it is never present in a response. - `data.value` (any) A string, number, or a Boolean value -- depending on the cell type and the data in the cell. Cell values larger than 4000 characters are silently truncated. An empty cell returns no value. ## Response default fields (application/json): - `refId` (string) The ID of the specific error occurrence. Please include this information when contacting Smartsheet support. - `errorCode` (number) Custom error code from Smartsheet. See the complete [Error Code List](/api/smartsheet/error-codes). - `message` (string) Descriptive error message.
