Sheet Permissions from Template

Currently, they have admin permissions and can delete the formulas. It was suggested to me to make them editors in the workspace, but they'll…

Request update only if no recent update exists?
Am I being dense?

I can send a request for update based on “if not in the past” but if there is a recent…

We are working on setting up our Career Reviews in Smartsheets. We have a group of all staff that has access to all sheets in our workspace.
