Re: Dark Mode for Desktop App
I feel it would be great to have SS in a dark mode, daily I have all other apps are running in dark mode on tablet and CPU, but then I switch to work in SS and BAM! The brightness...its too much :). Please add dark mode as a default option.

No brainer, Smartsheet community is the first place to look for advice whenever I am stuck. This literally has answers to anything and everything. The community questions and answers can in fact be turned into an AI based knowledgebase. SmartsheetGPT perhaps?
I have always admired how my colleagues @Kaveri Vipat, @Anjanesh Vaidya, Nisha Goutam and @Shubham come to the rescue when I need immediate support.

I am the go to person at my company regarding Smartsheet. If I need with a formula, I will go to the to the Formula Book first (IU love that thing!!!!). But sometimes I require a better explanation, or because my problem is complex. That is when I make a beeline to the Smartsheet Community. Answers are posted fast by people who have quickly become among my friends. I feel I literally know many of the Smartsheet Community people as we spend so much time together. I will also spend time at Smartsheet University. I lover Smartsheet, and before I had this job, I never used it. My boss got me an Admin license and had me creating almost immediately!!!!!

I always turn to the Community for any problems I encounter. And someone always has the "fix" I need to straighten out the problem!

I have a couple of coworkers I refer to as my Rubber Ducky. When I get stuck, I walk through the issue, and because they are listening I tend to solve the problem myself. But beyond that - it's the Community!! I love interacting with this group of SmartNerds!! 😍

Re: Disable License Request Features
I vote remove function to request license, most end users do not need a license. We print some of our Dashboards and the tag line re, unlicensed user is displayed on the printed document and cannot be removed.

Re: Disable License Request Features
"We think it's important to make sure our unlicensed users have a clear path to requesting a license"
Agree. But, what does that have to do with the need to enable admins to manage it?
As mentioned, just produce a dialog when an unlicensed user is trying to do something that requires a license.
The way it is now, is, well, just stupid. It's a clear attempt by Smartsheet to increase the number of licenses, regardless of whether they are needed.

Re: Disable License Request Features
It's frustrating, we get tickets in our company on this on a regular basis as admins. Bottom line for us - users do not get a license because they can literally do what ever they want. Make hidden workspaces, reference from these hidden items, setup random permissions outside of your organization. Until Smartsheet implements granular permissions/controls on what a licensed user can do, not giving them a license is the only control as an admin you have in your Smartsheet tenant. Until then, this comment and this request will slowly fade in to the background like all of our other enhancement requests. See you all at the next anniversary of this request.

Re: Disable License Request Features
In an Enterprise/Advance setting, granting licenses is not a personal decision. Often many users are added to the corporate Smartsheet account without a need for licenses because they are required to work in a Smartsheet based solution. This setting is what accounts without license are meant for.
Currently unlicensed users logged into a corporate Smartsheet account see this very prominent in every sheet they work in:
This creates a lot of unwanted license requests (aka workload) for the Smartsheet admins.
Please allow Smartsheet admins to hide these visuals for unlicensed users in an Enterprise account.

Current User Report on Dashboard - NOT SHARED
Today if you are using a Current User Report on a Dashboard you have to be shared to the source sheet.
If I don't want people to see the data, there is no easy solution. Please allow the current user report to work by filtering in for view on the dashboard, not source data.
Dynamic View doesn't have all the features of a Report so this does not fix the issue. Also on the mobile app, it displays as a link.
