Card view is removed automatically when changing configuration of a contacts type column to multiple contacts per cell. I need that card view.
Hi,
Smartsheet is working on improvements for the multiple contacts. Meanwhile, you have to use single contact columns (single and multiple contacts are two different types of columns)
I hope this helps you!

Andree is correct that while you can still view multi-contact fields in card view, you can only use single-contact fields as your card view lanes.
We would be interested to hear how you would want to use multi-contact fields as card view lanes. In particular, how would you expect a card that's assigned to multiple people to show up in card view?
Best regards,
Daniel
Daniel,
I am having this issue as well. I see the difficulty of figuring out how to assign these columns out in card view. A couple thoughts...
1) It looks like SS automatically organizes multi-contact cells alphabetically. Frankly, I would be fine if that is how cards showed up in card view, i.e. whichever name shows up FIRST in the cell is assigned to that lane in card view. As long as the field for Assigned To still shows both names, I would be perfectly fine to have it auto placed alphabetically.
2) This would be the ideal situation in my opinion, although likely more difficult to achieve. The card with multiple contacts in Assigned To shows up in each and every lane with a name in that cell. I.e. the Assigned To has "Kate, Blaire and Trent" in the cell, this card with duplicated information shows up in the Kate, Blaire AND Trent lane. However, the reason this would be more difficult is that I would NOT want there to be 3 actual rows - I would want it to be 1 row showing up as a card in 3 places. Anytime I edit the card in any one of those 3 places, it updates that 1 row and therefore gets updated across all the lanes. THIS, in my opinion would be the most effective for most people based on how I am reading folks use this feature.
If number 2 isn't possible, as I said, I would be fine with option 1, but those are my suggestions based on your question. Please let me know if any of my comments do not make sense or if you have questions. Thank you!

Hi I am trying to download my backups and when I click "Download Backup" it sends the download to my downloads folder. There is never an option or prompt to ask me which folder I want these saved to. I want to download them directly to a hard drive, I download a lot of backups and there isn't enough room on my computer to…
Hi, I have automations in place to generate various documents, based on the form completed. Once the document is generated, the user WOULD receive an email that included a message I create and then a link (at the very bottom) for the recipient to click on to download the generated document. Now, I still get the email but…
Is anyone aware of a method to inspect the login history of individuals added to your Safe Sharing Exempt List? We feel it would be wise to audit this periodically and then disavow anyone who has not logged in after x months
