Can Smartsheet send files as an automated workflow?
We are trying to create a client "welcome packet". We are envisioning our team members completing a Smartsheet form, and based on what they select (documents they need), Smartsheet will email them those specific files. I'm guessing that's not possible, but I wanted to be sure or see if there is an alternative solution.

@thomasheater Correct, it's not possible, but what I've in the past is include a link in the notification that points to a cloud storage location (Google Drive for Example).
If you are trying to only send certain documents conditionally, you'd have to determine a way to get the correct links in the notification.
I could think of a couple of ways, but would require a column for the link to each document or multiple conditions in the automation workflow

Hi,
I hope you're well and safe!
In some Client Solutions, I've added everything needed to a Dashboard/Portal and shared the link to it.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
Best,
