How can I add a Confidential Statement to the top of my Smartsheet

Gina McK

I would like to add a Confidential Statement- Do Not Share.... at the top of a simple Smartsheet. Preferably at the Very top under the Name of the document.

Users will only have View Only Permission.

if you are using a sheet, just use the description. You can use bold, italicize, or re-color to make it stand out more so viewers read it. If you are making a dashboard, just use the same text widgets as you would use to make the title and make it to your specifications.

I am new to Smartsheet, are you speaking of the column description? I want it to be seen without having to hover over the i. I also would like to prevent anyone from exporting the sheet, basically lock it down except for them to click links within the sheet

Hi @Gina McK

I hope you're well and safe!

You could use the WorkApp feature to lock it down and have a tab show before it's confidential.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic weekend!

Best,

If it is our only option then we may have to consider changing to a workapp

Can you explain more about the use case, and we'll see what options make sense?
