Can someone explain to me how to share a filter with another person viewing the sheet?
Thanks
When you create the Filter there's a Check Box called "Share Filter" which makes it available to other folks who are shared to the sheet. Complete instructions and a video are here, https://www.smartsheet.com/blog/new-release-save-multiple-filters-enhanced-search-publish-sights
And if you've already saved the filter, but forgot to share it, you can choose the filter in your dropdown > select the arrow to the right of the filter name > Choose edit filter and you can make it a shared filter there too.
Is this not possible anymore ?
I cannot see the "Share filter" check box either when creating a new filter or editing a new one.
Best,
Please see my screenshot.
Thanks.

Do you need to be the owner of the sheet in order to share a filter? We have Business, but even as an admin on the sheet we don't see the share checkbox.
Hi @Julius W
Owners and Admins can share filters as long as the sheet is owned by someone on a Business or Enterprise plan. Are you able to share a screen capture of what you're seeing?
Collaborators have to be licensed to access the settings or share filters, which is unfortunate. I had created some filters to allow users to sort tasks by assignee, and was expecting them to be able to edit the assignee. For our licensing arrangement to work, I have to make a master shared filter for each possible assignee role, which makes for a very long list.
Today Mar-18, I've lost all my tasks in gantt view, but they are still visible in card view or grid view. Yesterday i've shared the sheet with the team with view only access. Did anyone have similar issues? and how to resolve this?
I just started using the Table View for lists of contacts. I added a Format Rule that would highlight the entire row (except the Email Address field) if the Email Address cell is "blank". A second rule highlights just the Email Address cell itself in a slightly darker color if Email Address cell is "blank". This gives a…
My manager set up a weekly smartsheets attachment of a sheet to be emailed to them every week. She now wants to turn this off but when her and I go into the Send as Attachment section of the page it only shows that two were sent instead of weekly for the last year or two and there is no way to turn anything off. How do I…
