  • Isn't it a challenge, when working with groups, to add people to a group when they send an access request?

    You would think you could either grant access directly or have add them to a group with a drop down

    But there is no feature like that, right?

    You have to log into SmartSheet, navigate to Groups, find the group they belong to, and then add them manually - right?

  • Hi @Michael Bovilsky

    You're correct! The access request will come from an individual, so if you want them to be a part of a Group or shared to an item as a Group, you'll need to go to where you manage Groups to add them there.

    Please submit your feature request to the Product team by creating an Idea Post in the Smartsheet Product Feedback and Ideas topic here in the Community.

    Cheers,
