Change which Email Address is used when sending emails
I have a sheet in a workspace that I want to send as a PDF attachment on a reoccurring basis via email.
When it sends - it is FROM "my name via Smartsheet" and then user@smartsheet.com. I want it to come from another name - not my name. Is that possible? I assume it is if I change my name on my account it will do this however I do not want to do that.

Hello jdiplock,
There isn't a way to customize the behavior that you're seeing with emails sent from Smartsheet. If you sent the email from Smartsheet, it'll always appear as from you via Smartsheet, with you as the reply-to name and email. The only way to change the name would be to change your own name in your account.

jdiplock,
If this is mission critical, check out Zapier (www.zapier.com). This automation tool can be used with Gmail and other email clients. I know Zapier's Gmail actions allow me to change the From email address on outgoing emails. I did not check Office365, but I imagine it may as well.
It might not be a stretch to modify the Zap's I use here for the Send Row functionality

to send via Gmail also/instead. I'd need to see the full spec, but it seems possible.
