Step 2: Choose flow direction
With flow direction, you determine where Unito automatically creates work items to match the rows you create manually in Smartsheet or the tasks you open in Wrike. You have three flow direction options:
- 2-way: Both Smartsheet rows and Wrike tasks are automatically created by your Unito flow to match the items you create manually in each tool.
- 1-way from Smartsheet to Wrike: Wrike tasks will be automatically created by Unito to match the Smartsheet rows you create manually. Unito won’t create new Smartsheet rows.
- 1-way from Wrike to Smartsheet: Smartsheet rows will be automatically created by Unito to match the Wrike tasks you create manually. Unito won’t create new Wrike tasks.

Step 3: Build rules to sync specific work items
Unito rules can do two things:
- Filter out work items you don’t want synced. For example, you could create a rule that only syncs Wrike tasks with a certain status.
- Automate certain actions. For example, you could create a rule that automatically assigns new Smartsheet rows to a certain person on your team.
To start building your rule, click Add new rule, then choose a trigger and action.

Step 4: Map fields between Smartsheet and Wrike
When you map fields, you pair fields in Smartsheet with fields in Wrike so data goes exactly where it needs to. Unito can usually map most fields automatically, whether they’re exactly the same (Assignee→Assignee) or just compatible (URL→Text). You can also choose to map fields manually to fully customize your flow.

Here’s what you’ll see when Unito maps your fields automatically.

You can add a field mapping by clicking +Add mapping, then Select a field. When you choose the field you want to map in one tool, Unito automatically recommends compatible fields in a dropdown under the other tool.
Some fields have a cog icon. They can be customized once they’re mapped. For example, a Status field can be customized so its options match those in another field.

Step 5: Launch your Smartsheet-Wrike integration
That’s it! You’re ready to launch your flow. Unito will automatically keep Smartsheet rows and Wrike tasks in sync. This will allow your teams to collaborate more effectively without copying and pasting data or constantly switching tools.
