Start by logging into your Smartsheet account. Navigate to the specific sheet you want to export. Click on 'File' in the top menu, then choose 'Export' and select 'Export to Excel'. This action will download the sheet data as an Excel (.xlsx) file to your local machine.
Open the downloaded Excel file to ensure all necessary data is present and correctly formatted. Clean up any unnecessary columns or rows and ensure the column names are suitable for database table headers (e.g., no spaces or special characters).
Save the cleaned Excel file as a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file. This format is widely supported for data imports and will ensure compatibility with SQL Server. In Excel, choose 'File', then 'Save As', and select 'CSV (Comma delimited) (.csv)' from the format options.
Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and connect to your SQL Server instance. Create a new table in your database that matches the structure of your CSV file. Use the `CREATE TABLE` SQL statement to define the necessary columns and data types based on the CSV content.
Use the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard to import the CSV data. In SSMS, right-click on the database, go to 'Tasks', then 'Import Data'. Follow the wizard steps: select 'Flat File Source' and choose your CSV file. Then, map the columns of the CSV to the corresponding columns in your SQL Server table.
Once the import process completes, run a `SELECT` query in SSMS to verify that the data has been imported correctly into your SQL Server table. Check for accuracy and completeness, ensuring there are no discrepancies between the original Smartsheet data and the imported data.
If you need to move data regularly, consider creating a script or using a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package for automation. This step can help streamline future data transfers by reducing manual intervention. Develop a batch script or SSIS package that automates the steps of importing data from a CSV file to SQL Server.
By following these steps, you can effectively transfer data from Smartsheet to MS SQL Server without relying on third-party tools.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
