Can I share a folder within a workspace to someone without having to share the whole workspace?

Alicia D

Is there a way to share one folder within a workspace with someone, without sharing the whole workspace with them? I want them to see their folder, but not everyone else's folders within the workspace. Is this possible?

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit this as a Product Feedback or Idea (If it hasn't been added already) when you have a moment.

Thank you for the information!

I see many people have made this request so I won't make another post but I am just chiming in that this feature would be super essential to have!

Vote up feature isn't working for me on this community site, so I'll leave a comment here that I also would love this feature. I manage all of my team's projects in one place, sharing a folder (which in my case is a combination of a project plan, dashboard, reports) would be helpful as different projects need to be shared with different people. Unless there's some way of achieving my goal that is efficient and makes sense instead?

Agreed!

This is definitely needed. I have a set of sheets I need to shared externally and am having to apply the permissions individually.

Dear Smartsheet team. This would be a very useful feature. As we have many project managers working in one workspace, it would give them a possibility to sort the folders in the workspace on their name. Is this already added to the roadmap? Is there a plan?

Dear Smartsheet team,

I'm wondering if Alicia's suggestion has been put in place in Smartsheet now? Thank you.

Is it possible to share one folder within a workspace with someone, without sharing the whole workspace with them? I want them to see only files in their folder, but not everyone else's folders within the workspace.

Dear Smartsheet team,

I'd like to add my vote for this ability. I need the ability to share only the contents of a subfolder within a workspace with specific users and not the entire contents of the workspace. Think of it as a workspace within a workspace.

Thanks!
