Hello,
let's say I have set up a report to share information to specific users. Within the report several columns of the underlying sheet are hidden, because the viewer is not allowed to see them.
When a user (e.g. with the rights of a "view only") opens the report he only sees the columns that he should see - ok. He is not allowed to change the setup of the report - perfect.
But Smartsheets now offers an option for the "view only" user that I would not have expected, that it's given:
It's within the "Send as email" functionality. He can mark rows within the report and choose "Send" from the context menu of the row transactions. Within the popup he is offered to choose which columns to send. After clicking the button he get's the full range of columns to select from - visible columns but also the hidden columns. In the result the recipient gets an email with all rows that where marked and all columns that where selected. By the way this also works with the role "editor"...
Does anybody know how I can switch off this functionality?
I could not find it...
If it's not possible I'm a bit concerned, because IMHO he must not have this freedom of choice, because its foils the authorization scheme...
Best
Dietrich
PS:
Another question goes to the "copy" function of the context menu.
Same situation. Instead of sending the rows I chose "copy" from the context menu but I did not manage to insert the copy into another application like MS Word or MS Excel.
Does anybody know how to use this copy function?
