I would like to combine 2 columns together when we send an email from a row

I was wondering if there is a way to combine 2 columns together when you send an actual email from a row to have everything on one line rather than 2?

Hello,

There currently isn't a way to combine them in the email, you'll want to do this in your sheet.

You can do this by creating a third column, then using a JOIN function to connect the text together with a delimiter (such as a space or dash).

Then when you send the email (or in your automated notifications), include that new column instead of the two separate ones

Details on JOIN.

Details on sending email from Smartsheet.

Good day @Shaine Greenwood - I used this function as follows but received a INCORRECT ARGUMENT error:

=JOIN([First Name (as per passport)]@row; [Last Name (as per passport)]@row; " ")

Hi @Nats.Rudy

You'll want to use a colon between the two cell references. Try this:

=JOIN([First Name (as per passport)]@row:[Last Name (as per passport)]@row; " ")
