Hello,
Does anyone know how I can disable the “request a license” in Smartsheet? I know it can be done, just not sure how. Thank you!
Hi Dianna,
I got confused!
Yes, It's possible. Account Settings > Account Discovery > Uncheck the box
Hope that helps!
Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible at the moment, but it's a great idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
Have a fantastic week!

It cannot be done and this answer is wrong. Account discover is totally different.
SS wants to sell licenses and does not seem to care that its large corporate and business customers who may have hundreds of thousands of viewers can blow up admins with requests. Large organizations do not grant software this way and use request systems.
A means to disable this is sorely needed.
Hi @CraigPGH
I hope you're well and safe!
If I'm not mistaken, the answer is still correct, and I think you're confusing it with the Upgrade Dialog that free users will see.
The OP wanted to disable the requests that would get sent to the Admin of the account. (as I understood it)
Make sense?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

To add.
I agree that having a way to disable the upgrade message would be great.

Agree with this poster - even in a small organization, every single time I share a sheet with a new user, they submit a licensed user request. It is a complete waste of time to have to go decline their request and then go round and round with them via email on 'just create an account' because at that point, I have no idea what options they see, so I end up sharing the sheet with them again. I get that this is an upsell tactic but honestly it is more of a disincentive to purchasing more licenses.
I very much agree. It is misleading for most users, and while I understand that they want to push more licensing, those of us who manage access aren't going to buy more licenses to stop getting the emails.
I agree to it, we need a way to hide the Request License option. We are in UAT call and multiple PL's have raised this concern and in real time it is expected we will be bombarded with license requests.
Agreed. Our organisation has purchased a license and we have 5 staff who have have editorial permissions which is all they need for most things .. but everyone still gets the "Join your team by requesting a licence from your organisation" message. This is completely unnecessary and there should absolutely be the option to permanently disable this message.
I have a monthly report I send out that has a long list of recipients. I know I can edit the recurrence of it being sent, but does anyone know of an easy way to just add or take out people that get my email without having to recreate the whole thing?
We would like to allow conference attendees to check themselves in using tablets at the conference center. I know there is a "find in sheet" magnifying glass in table view, but it is not super obvious, especially for non-Smartsheet users. Is there a better way for them to easily find their row among all the attendees so…
Greetings- I have a automation setup when I select the "status" column drop-down to "completed" I want the row info to be emailed to the contact to submitted it with a follow up then I want it to archive the row (aka move to another sheet). When I run the automation only 1 of the 2 requests happen. The archive happens…
