Does anyone know how to sign input Smartsheet forms? I know that Smartsheet and Docusign integrates. However, I'm not sure how that would work in input forms.
Hi Chadwick,
The form is filled out and sent to a sheet, and then you can initiate the signing process.
There are more details, but in short, this is how it works.
Best,

Hi Chadwick
while you cannot at present complete a Smartsheet Form and sign in a box for eg initiating a contract, there is new functionality appearing all the time to help create intuitive workflows.
Docusign integration with Smartsheet has been around for a while, is really good and can handle lots of complex docs like Renting property, guarantors etc but it certainly isn't cheap, but it is good and worthwhile if it gives you exactly what you need.
More recently Iphone and Androids have been able to "Annotate" photos or screenshots which can include a "Finger Signature" like my sample attached and the sort of thing a delivery driver would ask for.
These "annotated Photos" can be uploaded to Smartsheet for Proof of... or a requirement for... and apart from explaining to your users how to do it the first time, there is no cost attached. So I suggest you do some testing with touchscreen devices?
Stepping outside of Smartsheet Form entry we can use Appsheet as the user interface for Smartsheet held data, which can capture signatures within a form (your initial request) or we have property inspectors who take photos of issues on their phones, circle the faulty areas, then provide some written text on what the resolution needs, click send and the HQ database is updated in Smartsheet, Excel or Google so the PM can take action collaboratively.
Hope some of that inspires you to look a little deeper? If you get stuck, we can help and good luck.
PS you can also sign PDFs now too!

I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
