Possible to use a Smartsheet form as a formmail/sendmail?

Beck_TaylorSchwartz

My group has a need for a formmail/sendmail-type option, and I'm not sure if Smartsheet forms can be customized to do this.

Need to be able to use a form to:

• Send emails with a return address from our team mailbox (not from automation@app.smartsheet.com)
• Specify a recipient for each form submitted
• Send to multiple recipients (optional but would be really helpful)

My organization does not support any internal web hosting so I can't just set up an HTML form using a script - hoping Smartsheet could be a potential solution. Not finding any info on how to do this so I'm suspecting it's not possible.

Hi!

Smartsheet forms themselves are not designed to send emails directly like traditional formmail/sendmail systems. However, you can use automated workflows within Smartsheet to trigger notifications or emails when a form is submitted.

I work with a team of Smartsheet developers that would be able to set this up for you. Feel free to send me an email mcarlson@digitalradius.com and we could set up some time!

Best,

Thanks for your reply, Murphy! We have all our normal notification email automations set up. This was just outside of the normal parameters and I suspected it wasn't a viable solution but wanted to verify. Thank you, your reply saved me from digging any further to try to do something the forms are not designed to do!
