What functionality does the 'Cell Linking' feature provide in Smartsheet?

The 'Cell Linking' feature in Smartsheet allows users to establish dynamic links between cells across different sheets. This means that when the data in the source cell is updated, the linked cell in the destination sheet automatically reflects this change. This functionality is particularly useful for maintaining consistency and accuracy across multiple sheets without needing to manually update each one every time there is a change.

By utilizing cell linking, users can create a more connected and efficient workflow. For instance, if one sheet tracks inventory levels while another sheet reports on sales, linking the relevant cells ensures that any changes in inventory are instantly visible in the sales report, allowing for better decision-making.

The other options describe functionalities that do not apply to cell linking. For example, creating static copies of data or summarizing it in a dashboard format does not utilize dynamic linking. Similarly, while exporting linked data is a separate feature, it does not embody the essence of what cell linking accomplishes within the Smartsheet environment.
