Sync User Management list with Smartsheet Contact Lists

JennaD

It would be extremely helpful to have our users' first and last names and email addresses, as listed in the User Management List in the admin portal, synced with available contacts in the Contacts List to input as a contact in the Contact List column type. People are really confused as to why no names automatically show up when searching for someone to add them to a column like this and it causes them to question whether that person has Smartsheet access yet or not. It also causes user error where they add a new contact with a mistake or accidentally edit the contact and now it is inconsistent across the organization as to how one person input that person's name/email vs how another person input that same individual's name/email. Further, it's redundant work to re-add contacts into other sheets. Lastly, we want to control from a security perspective, who people are allowed to add within their sheets in the contact columns bc our security policy does not allow for internal information to be shared with an external user and there is nothing stopping someone from adding a contact with an external email address, giving that person access to the internal information in the sheet.
