Use this interactive demo to learn how to build a Gantt chart from scratch in Smartsheet.

Quick summary

A Gantt chart in Smartsheet lets project managers visualize task timelines and dependencies in a structured, easy-to-read format. You can create one in minutes by selecting the built-in Gantt sheet type and entering your project data directly into the grid.


Steps

  1. On Smartsheet's main dashboard, find and select a workspace under All Workspaces.
  2. Go to the left-side panel and click Add.
  3. Hover over the Sheet option, then select Gantt.
  4. Enter a unique name for your Gantt chart in the input field provided.
  5. Replace the placeholder text fillers with your actual task data, typing each entry into its respective cell.
  6. Your Smartsheet Gantt chart is now created based on your input.

📌 Why this matters

Gantt charts are essential for project managers who need to plan, track, and communicate task timelines clearly. Smartsheet's built-in Gantt view eliminates the need for external tools by letting teams create structured project schedules directly inside their existing workspace. With just a few clicks, users can set up a fully functional Gantt chart that scales with complex, multi-task projects. This makes Smartsheet a practical choice for teams seeking a centralized, visual approach to project timeline management.
